| 47. Plant Vegetation |
Active |
Use during the first year (and only first year) of planting terrestrial or aquatic vegetation and/or seed (aerially, mechanically, and/or manually). Use for wildlife cover and forage enhancement, restoring native vegetative communities and habitat, including wildlife, protect pollinators, enhance or create pollinator habitat, erosion control and soil stabilization, roughness recruitment, shading, wildfire restoration, and rehabilitating removed roads/trails. Do not use for site stabilization/restoration immediately following construction. Post-construction planting/seeding should be a milestone in a construction work element.
All maintenance activities (irrigation, site prep, survival survey) which occur during the same contract period as planting/seeding should be included in this WE as milestones. See associated work elements and notes for this 47. Plant Vegetation for more guidance. |

Identify the total acres of habitat treated in riparian habitat zone. To calculate acres, use a GIS program or approximate the value by multiplying the total length of the treated habitat zone times the average width of the treated habitat zone in feet / divided by 43,560 sq. ft/acre.
-Riparian: Transition zone between aquatic and upland habitat typically within a river's floodplain. These habitats are related to and influenced by surface or subsurface waters, especially the margins of streams, lakes, ponds, wetlands, seeps, and ditches between land and a stream and above the average high watermark, or bank full height. Plant communities along the river and lake margins are called riparian vegetation, characterized by hydrophilic plants. This includes floodplain habitat, which may be restored to properly functioning conditions. (This excludes floodplain habitat influenced by the tides, which is classified as "Estuarine Habitat" for Pisces.)
-Wetland: Habitat designated and regulated as wetland habitat, which is dominated by areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support a prevalence of hydrophytic vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs and similar areas.

| 53. Remove Vegetation |
Active |
Removal of one or more plant species, or a number of individuals of a plant species, by mechanical, biological, and/or chemical means, or by controlled burn.
Target species are often exotic or non-native plants, naturalized plants, or undesirable native plants, all of which may be considered to be noxious, invasive or "weeds". Includes the removal of both aquatic and terrestrial plants as well as tree stand manipulation due to encroachment or to create forage openings. |

| 197. Maintain/Remove Vegetation |
Active |
Maintain or remove all or part of an aquatic or terrestrial plant community. Use this WE for your first year of removing vegetation or any subsequent years of maintenance on the same land. Work can include different, or the same, treatment techniques as in previously treated areas.
Activities include: 1) Removing undesirable exotic, non-native, or naturalized plants, generally considered noxious, invasive, or weed species. Work may involve one or more plant species, and includes mechanical, biological, and/or chemical means, as well as controlled burns. 2) Reducing/controlling competing undesirable or native vegetation by tilling, mowing, scalping, addition of mats, fertilization, herbicide application, tree/shrub thinning, and/or controlled burns. 3) Preventing or reducing animal damage with browse repellents, tree tubes/protectors, etc. 4) Maintaining or enhancing the health of target species or ecosystem by irrigation, limbing/thinning, sun protectors, controlled burns, and other activities. 5) Inter-planting or re-seeding an existing site if needed due to mortality or lack of vigor .
Work to restore Shrub-Steppe habitats anywhere in the basin should follow the Shrub-Steppe and Grassland Restoration Manual for the Columbia River Basin: http://wdfw.wa.gov/publications/01330/wdfw01330.pdf. |

| 30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel |
Expired |
This work element is intended for adding sinuosity, meanders, side channels, and/or off-channel habitats (e.g., sloughs or oxbows). Actions include reconnection of historical channels, excavation of new channels, or actions that significantly alter channel planform, profile, and cross-section. Channel modifications should create diverse habitats (pools, riffles, glides and runs) while retaining characteristic features and forms over time. These actions should increase stream channel and/or side channel length and acreage. This WE may be the main emphasis of an aquatic habitat restoration project, or part of a larger habitat project.
Design review should be at 80% completion before contracting to help assure implementation and expenditure of contracted funds.
When this WE is used, the contract must also include 175. Produce Design . If work is solely to add structures/features within the existing channel, then use 29. Increase Aquatic and/or Floodplain Complexity . If structures are being added to resolve a fish passage barrier, use 184. Install Fish Passage Structure . If work is to create, restore, or enhance wetland function then use 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland |

| 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland |
Expired |
This work element is intended for the creation, restoration, or enhancement of wetland hydrologic, water quality, or habitat functions. Actions include installation of a water control structure, re-contouring, or floodplain reconnection . Wetland creation (establishment) is the manipulation of physical, chemical, and biological characteristics to develop a wetland on a site where one did not previously exist. Creation results in a gain in wetland acres. Wetland restoration (re-establishment) is the manipulation of the physical, chemical, and/or biological characteristics of a site with the goal of returning natural/historic functions to former wetlands that may have been filled, subsided, or impacted by hydrologic alterations. Restoration reestablishes a former wetland and results in a gain in wetland acres. Wetland enhancement is the manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of a site with the goal of repairing degraded wetland functions. Wetland enhancement typically involves the manipulation of site characteristics to improve hydrologic, water quality, or habitat functions but does not result in a gain in wetland acreage. This WE may be the main emphasis of a stream/wetland restoration project, or it may be a component of a broader set of techniques implemented in concert which collectively define a project.
When this WE is used, the contract must also include 175. Produce Design . If additional actions or techniques are implemented, make sure you properly document associated work elements, e.g., 180. Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach Dike , 184. Install Fish Passage Structure , or 29. Increase Aquatic and/or Floodplain Complexity , 30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel , or 35.
