Cover was estimated for Transect 1, and woody plant density was <br />estimated by counting woody plants within 2 meter wide belts the length of each <br />transect. <br />Data Summary <br />(Reference any tables, diagrams or maps attached) <br />Attachment 1 - Transect Locations <br />Attachment 2 - Cover Summary <br />Attachment 3 - Woody Plant Density Summary <br />Narrative Evaluation of Compliance <br />This is a live-handle, non seeded parcel characterized by high cover and <br />production of native and introduced perennial grasses, with a number of native <br />and introduced fortis present, but contributing a relatively minor cover <br />component. Dominant grasses are Kentucky bluegrass and smooth brome. Major <br />species cover is relatively evenly distributed, and the parcel would, <br />individually meet the species diversity standard. Exposed bare ground was only <br />5Y on the cover transect, and no erosion was evident in the area. Woody density <br />samples were quite variable, 494/acre for Transect 1, 1,505/acre for Transect 2, <br />and 1,998/acre for Transect 3, giving an estimate of the mean of u = 1,332 + <br />1,293. Snowberry is the dominant woody plant. <br />* A separate tracking sheet should be filled out for each area and compliance <br />topic evaluated. <br />** If applicable <br />DTM/ern <br />4538E <br />
