116	The length of new road, or trail or trail relocated in miles in the upland habitat zone. (This metric value will = 0 if decommissioning is done without relocation) To calculate the length in miles divide the total length of new road or trail (in feet) created by 5,280 feet/mile. -Upland habitat is defined as: habitat upslope of the riparian and instream habitat zone with non-hydrophilic plants, unless part of an isolated wetland, which occurs outside the hyporheic, or floodplain/riparian zone.	33
