<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />1.1) Studies and evaluations conducted by the Nature Conservancy, the NRCS <br />Intermountain RiparianlWetlands Resource Technician Team. <br /> <br />1.2) A field survey of the stream was conducted in 1987 by the NRCS. The centerline, <br />the river channel, the banks, and slopes were determined. During the monitoring phase, <br />this map will be compared with the new survey map to document changes which have <br />occurred during this time frame. <br /> <br />Product: Begin Data Base. <br />Units&Cost; NRCS, Unknown, $11,333.00 in-kind (Nature Conservancy). <br /> <br />TOTAL: $11,333.00. FUNDING SOURCE: $11,333.00 in-kind (Nature Conservancy). <br /> <br />TASK 2. Develop maps and images of the river and project area. Historical Maps and Aerial <br />Photographs of the Alamosa River below Terrace Reservoir will be compiled and digitized during <br />the restoration process. By comparing historical records, analysis of important morphological <br />changes can be accomplished. This includes channel movement, flood plain adjustments, riparian <br />vegetation and other corridor characteristics. The major vegetation types, soil types, streets and <br />highways, and political subdivisions will also be identified. <br /> <br />This involves either purchasing or compiling through the project or private vendors the following <br />maps: <br /> <br />2.1) The quad maps which Dave Rosgen used to classify the stream. A map made by Dave <br />Rosgen has been developed with a scale 2.64" = 1 mile. This scale was developed using 7.5' <br />quads, USGS topographic maps. These maps will be purchased from a local sporting goods <br />store and later digitized. <br /> <br />Unit Cost: $5.00/map; $22.00/map (digitized). Total Cost: Three maps of each; $80.00. <br /> <br />2.2). Digitize aerial photographs which were taken of the entire stream at a scale of 1 "= 200 <br />feet in 1998. These photos will be scanned and made available on a CD Rom. They will also <br />be pasted together to develop a comprehensive map. <br /> <br />Unit Cost: (Based on Agro. Engineering) 8 hours to scan @$60.00/hr. To georeftrence the <br />photos and paste images. 44 hours @ $60.00/hr. <br />Total Cost: $3,120.00. <br /> <br />2.3). Base Maps: 1998 Landsat and IRS-lC imagery. The maps will include a surface <br />geology map which will describe the major vegetation, political subdivisions with highways! <br />roads, USGS Quad maps, and infrared imagery. <br />Total Cost: (Based on Agro. Engineering) $3,960.00. <br /> <br />Page -16- <br />
