Metric Guidance

Metric Guidance ID	Description	Used on Work Elements
277	Identify the total acres of habitat treated in the upland habitat zone. The treatment area is the construction footprint, plus the estimated catchment area that the treatment is designed to reduce sediment transport export from. (For example the area treated may be the area of a sediment pond, plus the upslope area that drains directly into the pond.) 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. -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.	52, 55

52. Remove Mine Tailings	Active	Work to remove or re-contour remnant landscape effects from old mining operations. Could be terrestrial or aquatic in nature. If work also creates wetland or modifies channel use 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland and 30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel.	2011		277	Identify the total acres of habitat treated in the upland habitat zone. The treatment area is the construction footprint, plus the estimated catchment area that the treatment is designed to reduce sediment transport export from. (For example the area treated may be the area of a sediment pond, plus the upslope area that drains directly into the pond.) 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. -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.	Required	Yes	Yes	No
55. Erosion and Sedimentation Control	Active	This is work that occurs in the riparian and upland zones, which may include the installation of water bars, gully plugs and culvert outlets, grassed waterways, grade stabilization structures, sediment catchment ponds/basins, regrading or terracing, and removal of drainage pipes and other blockages specifically to prevent erosion, sediment slumps, or landslides. This WE does not include improvements to roads or the planting of vegetation in applications other than surface soils stabilization. For that work, use 38. Improve Road for Instream Habitat Benefits or 47. Plant Vegetation, respectively.	2011		277	Identify the total acres of habitat treated in the upland habitat zone.
