BASELINE MONITORING REPORT

100 INTRODUCTION

The Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) Dredge Material Management Area (DMMA) IR-2

mitigation area consists of approximately +- 718 acres ofland located north of CR 510 east of

Federal Highway and west of the Indian River Lagoon in Section 20 Township 31 S Range 39E

Sebastian Indian River County Florida (Figures 1 2 and 3 of9) The mitigation area is divided into

three (3) areas a mitigation area of 155 acres for DMMA IR-2 construction impacts a mitigation

area of 280 acres for DMMA SL-2 construction impacts and a 160 acre area for advanced

mitigation of future impacts (Figure 4 -6 of9)

Hobe Sound Environmental Consultants Inc (HSE) has been retained by FIND to conduct

annual monitoring and prepare annual reports to comply with Florida Department ofEnvironmental

Protection (FDEP) Permit s 56-0255662-001 ERP31-0273920-00 l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003shy

EM The annual reports are being prepared to document the progress ofthe wetland mitigation area

The reports will include results of annual monitoring comprised ofvegetation analysis panoramic

and quadrat photographs and conclusions

This is the baseline monitoring report completed by HSE for the DMMA IR-2 mitigation

area Data was collected for this report on 8 April2013 Monitoring is scheduled annually in April

ofeach year for a period offive (5) consecutive years A fmal report will be submitted to the FDEP

in April2018 Table 1 depicts the monitoring schedule for this project site

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

00l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003-EM Recruitment ofdesirable native species should occur

quickly once the cattails are eradicated as they should spread through both seed and existing

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

The Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) Dredge Material Management Area (DMMA) IR-2

mitigation area consists of approximately +- 718 acres ofland located north of CR 510 east of

Federal Highway and west of the Indian River Lagoon in Section 20 Township 31 S Range 39E

Sebastian Indian River County Florida (Figures 1 2 and 3 of9) The mitigation area is divided into

three (3) areas a mitigation area of 155 acres for DMMA IR-2 construction impacts a mitigation

area of 280 acres for DMMA SL-2 construction impacts and a 160 acre area for advanced

mitigation of future impacts (Figure 4 -6 of9)

Hobe Sound Environmental Consultants Inc (HSE) has been retained by FIND to conduct

annual monitoring and prepare annual reports to comply with Florida Department ofEnvironmental

Protection (FDEP) Permit s 56-0255662-001 ERP31-0273920-00 l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003shy

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

BASELINE MONITORING REPORT

100 INTRODUCTION

The Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) Dredge Material Management Area (DMMA) IR-2

mitigation area consists of approximately +- 718 acres ofland located north of CR 510 east of

Federal Highway and west of the Indian River Lagoon in Section 20 Township 31 S Range 39E

Sebastian Indian River County Florida (Figures 1 2 and 3 of9) The mitigation area is divided into

three (3) areas a mitigation area of 155 acres for DMMA IR-2 construction impacts a mitigation

area of 280 acres for DMMA SL-2 construction impacts and a 160 acre area for advanced

mitigation of future impacts (Figure 4 -6 of9)

Hobe Sound Environmental Consultants Inc (HSE) has been retained by FIND to conduct

annual monitoring and prepare annual reports to comply with Florida Department ofEnvironmental

Protection (FDEP) Permit s 56-0255662-001 ERP31-0273920-00 l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003shy

EM The annual reports are being prepared to document the progress ofthe wetland mitigation area

The reports will include results of annual monitoring comprised ofvegetation analysis panoramic

and quadrat photographs and conclusions

This is the baseline monitoring report completed by HSE for the DMMA IR-2 mitigation

area Data was collected for this report on 8 April2013 Monitoring is scheduled annually in April

ofeach year for a period offive (5) consecutive years A fmal report will be submitted to the FDEP

in April2018 Table 1 depicts the monitoring schedule for this project site

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

00l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003-EM Recruitment ofdesirable native species should occur

quickly once the cattails are eradicated as they should spread through both seed and existing

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

00l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003-EM Recruitment ofdesirable native species should occur

quickly once the cattails are eradicated as they should spread through both seed and existing

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

recorded the percent-coverage ofall vegetative species or plant groupings observed

Biologists will conduct annual (April) vegetation surveys ofthe quadrats for a period

of five (5) years Sample quadrats on the west side of the site are 33 feet x 33 feet (1089

sq feet) while sample quadrats on the east side ofthe site in the open water are 10 feet x 10

feet (100 square feet)

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

200 METHODOLOGY

201 Veeetation

HSE established seventeen (17) monitoring transects on-site (Figures 7 and 8 of9)

The beginning of each transect was established with a wooden stake marked with the

transect number At the eastern and western ends ofT5 T 10 and T 15 a 1 0 tall pvc pipe was

stabilized by a 4 piece of rebar driven into the ground behind the stakes to serve as the

panoramic photograph locations Additionally two (2) panoramic stations were set up at

the north and south ends of the monitoring site utilizing the same methodology Quadrats

were set up at all panoramic photograph stations for a total of eight (8) quadrats (Figure 7

of9) The panoramic photograph station locations and the SW comer ofeach quadrat were

located using a Garmin GPSMAP175 global positioning system (GPS) unit The

approximate GPS position coordinates for the transects are provided as Table 2 in Figure 8

of9 The GPS position coordinates for the panoramic photostations and the quadrats can be

found as Table 3 in Figure 9 of9 Plants were identified to species when possible and results

were recorded Within each sample quadrat the relative plant abundance was estimated and

recorded according to the percent-coverage For a particular sample quadrat biologists

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

Page 16: FLORIDA INLAND NAVIGATION DISTRICT · The Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) Dredge Material Management Area (DMMA) IR-2 mitigation area consists of approximately +/- 7.18

202 Photographic Documentation

Panoramic and quadrat photographs were taken at the locations shown in Figures 7

and 9 of9 Each quadrat photograph includes a range pole marked in 12 intervals This will

allow the vertical growth ofspecies to be followed accurately during the monitoring period

203 Exotic Species

Exotic and nuisance species such as those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Councils

Category I Invasive Exotic Species List were noted by biologists and are addressed in the

recommendations section

300 RESULTS

301 Vegetation

The mitigation area is dominated by native vegetation including but not limited to

white mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa) red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) black

mangrove (Avicennia germinans) three square bulrush (Scirpus americanus) and salt grass

(Distichis spicata) Areas along the west berm behind the photostations and on the islands

between the cuts are dominated by sea oxeye daisy (Borrichiafrutescens) with red black

and white mangrove on the islands Vegetation appeared healthy and free ofinsect damage

or any other relative forms of stress at the time of monitoring Additionally mangrove

species especially white mangrove and other desirable native wetland species including

herb-of-grace (Bacopa monnieri) and fragrant flatsedge ( Cyperus odoratus) were observed

naturally recruiting throughout the mitigation area There is one grass that has been

potentially identified as fall panicgrass but this identification is not positive A sample will

be sent to a grass expert for positive identification and the information will be forwarded to

the Department as soon as it is received

HSE 13-00501 Page 13 of 19 9 April2013

The red mangroves that were planted in the open water area east of the cuts show

evidence of stress Many are dead and the remainder are struggling Please refer to the

panoramic photographs of quadrats 6-8 Appendix A Figures 3 and 4 of4

Cattail (Typha sp is the dominant invasive species within the conservation area For

additional information on exotic vegetation please refer to Section 303 Comparative

analysis will be conducted ofvegetation and relative conditions during the next monitoring

event and will begin to reveal if the permit success criteria is being met as required within

five (5) years ofthis baseline report Results ofthe vegetation transects are shown in Table

4

302 Photographic Documentation

The panoramic and quadrat photographs (Appendix A) illustrate conditions within

the mitigation area

303 ExoticNuisance Vegetation

Currently coverage of the exotic cattail is light to moderate throughout portions of

the mitigation area Collectively cattail exists at approximately 10 coverage throughout

the extent ofthe mitigation area Other exoticnuisance species observed at lt5 coverage

include torpedo grass (Panicum repens) and alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides)

It should be noted that a relatively strong seed source for cattail exists just outside of the

mitigation area therefore making invasion by this species an on-going problem which will

need constant maintenance All of the observed exotic species are aggressive and can

quickly out-compete desirable native vegetation An exotic and nuisance species

management plan will be implemented and will continue at routine intervals to efficiently

eradicate andor control these species Continued treatment ofthe mitigation area will likely

increase recruitment of desirable native vegetation within the mitigation area and

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

00l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003-EM Recruitment ofdesirable native species should occur

quickly once the cattails are eradicated as they should spread through both seed and existing

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014

00l-EI and ERP31-0273920-003-EM Recruitment ofdesirable native species should occur

quickly once the cattails are eradicated as they should spread through both seed and existing

rhizomes throughout the mitigation area

400 CONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

bull The mitigation area west of the east berm is dominated by native species such as white black and red mangroves saltgrass and three-square bulrush

bull The mitigation area east of the east berm is dominated by sea oxeye daisy and mangroves on the higher areas with some red mangroves in the water

bull Native vegetation such as fragrant flatsedge and herb-of-grace is naturally recruiting into the mitigation area

bull Native vegetation appears healthy and free of insect damage or any other forms of relative stress at the time of this monitoring event

bull The planted red mangroves within the mitigation area east of the east berm are struggling By the next monitoring event it should be more obvious how many plants have survived

bull One grass (potentially fall panic grass) was not definitively identified and will be sent to a grass expert for positive identification The Department will be notified as soon as this information is received

bull Cattails were observed at an areal coverage ofapproximately plusmn10 throughout the extent of the western mitigation area This is a very aggressive exotic species and special attention should be placed on the controltreatment ofit within the mitigation area There is a large seed source ofcattail directly adjacent to the mitigation area on the west side of the access road so maintenance to keep this species under control will need to be on-going

bull Tmpedo grass and alligator weed were observed within the mitigation area at lt5

bull An exoticnuisance management plan will be implemented and maintenance will be on-gomg

HSE 13-00501 Page 18 of 19 9 April2013

bull FDEP permit success criteria will be met ifdesirable native vegetation exists at 95 within the mitigation area within five (5) years of the baseline report and exoticnuisance vegetation is being maintained at an aerial coverage ofless than 5

bull The next monitoring event is scheduled to occur in April2014
