Metric Guidance ID	Description	Used on Work Elements
250	The length of road or trail scarified/ripped in the upland habitat zone (in miles). To calculate the length in miles, divide the total length (in feet) of road or trail treated/removed by 5,280 feet/mile. -Scarified/ripped: Road or trail surface is altered to allow for planting or plant colonization. -Upland: 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

Decommission Road/Relocate Road	Active	Any activity that makes a road or trail unusable including adding berms, pits, boulders or logs, and/or ripping, scarifying, recontouring, or obliterating the road or trail with heavy equipment that may involve re-contouring the slope. Also use for building a road or trail in a more appropriate location to replace a decommissioned road or trail. If decommissioning by planting vegetation or seeding use 47. Plant Vegetation. If removal of fish barrier (e.g., culvert) is included, also use 85. Remove/Breach Fish Passage Barrier, or 184. Install Fish Passage Structure. If work also involves channel realignment, use 30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel in addition to this work element.	2011		250	The length of road or trail scarified/ripped in the upland habitat zone (in miles).
