/ stream sites per site for wetlands, ponds, or lakes

Task 1. Review existing data/literature

For stream/lake sites: Review historical fish stocking releases and available historical fish survey data for the waterway to be studied; meeting with AGFD staff to determine angler uses and qualitative characteristics of “quality” habitat based on sampling experience; gathering and review aerial photography if available to note historical changes in channel alignment. For wetland/pond/spring sites: review available literature and information related to historical, reference, and current conditions; meet with AGFD staff as needed.

Task 2. Hydrologic Assessment Determine watershed area (square miles) for project area, for stream sites, develop hydrology for project area and estimate of flows for 1, 5, 10, 25, and

50-year recurrence intervals; and evaluation of changes to hydrology caused by fires.

$3,300.00 $3,300.00

Task 3. Morphologic and

Habitat Assessment For stream sites, morphologic surveys will include Rosgen Level II, and appropriate Level III. Morphological assessments will include consideration of sediment size, quantity, and transport competence, bed and bank substrate size and distribution, geological constraints, and if needed, barriers to fish movements. Reduce/analyze field survey data. Compare morphological characterization with aquatic sampling data. For spring/wetland/pond/lake sites: evaluate per common practices and recognized regional classification systems. For all sites: Identify and recommend potential habitat enhancement practices and potential areas for enhancement.
