Restoration Plan
NHBZ Goals
In accordance with the City of Fort Collins guidelines (LUC 3.4.1) the NHBZ should be managed to:
1. Preserve or enhance the ecological character or function and wildlife use of the natural habitat or feature and to minimize or adequately mitigate the foreseeable impacts of development.
2. Preserve or enhance the existence of wildlife movement corridors between natural habitats and features, both within and adjacent to the Site.
3. Enhance the natural ecological characteristics of the Site. If existing landscaping within the NHBZ is determined by the decision maker to be incompatible with the purposes of the buffer zone,
then the applicant shall undertake restoration and mitigation measures such as re-grading and/or the replanting of native vegetation.
4. Provide appropriate human access to natural habitats and features and their associated NHBZ'S in order to serve recreation purposes, provided that such access is compatible with the ecological
character or wildlife use of the natural habitat or feature.
Restoration Framework
Step 1: Creating opportunity and reducing competition - Noxious and weedy species should be controlled using mechanical or chemical methods prior to project construction or grading to ensure that a
variety of native species are given the opportunity to establish.
Step 2: Soil Preparation - The soil surface should be optimized for seeding or planting. Decompaction is vital in the Natural Habitat Buffer Zone, since portions of this area have been used for
equipment staging. Disturbed areas should be fine graded to a smooth, uniform surface plane. Prior to seeding, the soil surface should be loose, allowing for good soil/seed contact. Roll and rake,
remove ridges, and fill depressions to meet surface grades based on grading plans.
Prior to the commencement of grading, the contractor shall be required to show proof of equipment cleaning. The mechanism for showing proof should be agreed upon between the contractor and the
City of Fort Collins Environmental Planning before implementation of the grading.
Prior to seeding an Environmental Planning inspector needs to confirm proper seed bed preparation and seed mix details are appropriate.
Step 3: Seeding - Seeding should occur as soon as possible following final construction and final contouring within a suitable time frame. For seeding, late fall to early spring (October to May) is the
most favorable. The species used should be native and suitable to the soil and moisture conditions of the NHBZ. Seed mixes should be designed to facilitate growth of appropriate and sustainable
species. If changes are to be made to the proposed seed mix based on site conditions, then approval must be provided by a city Environmental Planner. The proposed seed mixes are based on the
City's recommended species and site conditions.
Creekside Park
The underperforming areas should be planted with Tillage Radish and rapeseed (at least 20 pounds per acre) in the spring. Supplemental irrigation will be needed to establish and sustain these cover
crops. The final permanent seed mix should be plants in late fall to early spring (October to May), following the growing season of cover crop.
·If broadcast seeding, the seeding rate should be doubled, seed-to soil contact should be increased immediately through manipulation which will also provide some protection from wind or water
erosion and granivores. Manipulation can be accomplished by either a light disc harrowing perpendicular to the flow of energy (wind and/or water) or hand raking around sensitive areas (i.e.
willow patches).
·If drill seeding, it shall be implemented in two passes with the final pass occurring on the contour, to create subtle ridges perpendicular to the flow of energy.
Step 4: Temporary Erosion Protection - After seeding, the area shall be covered with crimped straw, jute mesh, or other appropriate soil surface stabilization methods. Straw mulch should be certified
weed-free hay or certified weed-free straw with no seed heads
Step: Maintenance and Management - Maintenance and management activities should be implemented to ensure success of the ecological restoration project. Routine inspections for erosion should be
performed during the time between seeding and vegetation establishment to assure no excessive erosion features form on the project area.
Restoration goals can be achieved without the use of supplemental water if planting plans correspond to local climatic patterns for native seeding, late fall or early spring. However, temporary
supplemental irrigation is planned within the upland restoration areas in the NHBZ to ensure more reliable establishment in a variety of potential climatic conditions. Temporary supplemental irrigation
will be used in a manner to provide no more than 150% of normal precipitation for the area (inclusive of precipitation) and will be removed at least one growing season prior to measurement of the
success. Monthly normal precipitation and maximum total applied water values for the growing season are presented on the following table:
Annual Monitoring Plan
Annual monitoring will continue for at least three years following restoration of the NHBZ. The NHBZ will be visited four times a year on the following schedule:
1. Inspections will occur in the spring, summer, and fall, where a qualified ecologist will traverse the entirety of the Site to assess restoration performance along with noxious and invasive weed
populations.
2. At the peak of growing season, a qualified ecologist will implement quantitative measurements to evaluate ground cover within the NHBZ.
Quantitative measurements will consist of 2 permanent photo points and 5 ground cover sampling points. At each sample point, ground cover will be measured line point intercept transects, where the
ecologist will record vegetative ground cover by species to the nearest 1%. All species, including noxious and invasive species, and their respective percent ground cover will be recorded.
The consultant shall notify the City of Fort Collins Environmental Planning prior to each inspection. After each inspection of the NHBZ, the consultant should email a brief narrative summarizing the
findings of the site visit and corresponding action items to City of Fort Collins Environmental Planning, the developer, and the landscaping contractor.
A brief report containing survey findings and recommendations will be provided to the City by October 31st of each year. This will give the City of Fort Collins Environmental Planning and the applicant
ample time to discuss and implement adaptive management to address any underperforming areas prior to when on-the-ground treatment implementation would be needed, if determined necessary.
During the third year of annual monitoring, a determination of successful establishment in the NHBZ will be made by City Environmental Planning Department based on a site surveys and vegetative
performance compared to the following success criteria:
1. The total vegetative ground cover contributed by all desirable plant species (excepting mature trees) is equal to or greater than the desirable vegetative cover of the applicable reference area(s)
from that calendar year,
2. No more than five percent (5%) of the species noted on the site may be weedy or noxious species as defined by City Code Section §20-41 and Colorado Department of Agriculture's Noxious
Weed List as defined by the Colorado Noxious Weed Act §§35-5.5,
3. The development site shall display no evidence of detrimental erosion due to rills, gullies or excessive bare spots of ground,
4. Survival rate of all planted shrubs and trees is equal to or greater than eighty percent (80%), and
5. Any diversity standards applied according to the City Environmental Planner's discretion. Diversity standards should be reflective of the reference area or target habitat conditions provided by
the City. by the City Environmental Planning Department and Utility Services Department.
