FLUCCs code<br />

Basin/Watershed Name/Number<br />

Further classification (optional)<br />

Affected Waterbody (Class)<br />

Geographic relationship to and hydrologic connection with wetlands, other surface water, uplands<br />

<strong>Assessment</strong> area description<br />

Significant nearby features<br />

Functions<br />

Impact or <strong>Mitigation</strong> Site<br />

<strong>Assessment</strong> Area Size<br />

Special Classification (i.e.OFW, AP, other local/state/federal designation of importance)<br />

Should be checked and<br />

updated as needed during<br />

the field survey…<br />

Uniqueness (considering the relative rarity in relation to the regional<br />

landscape.)<br />

<strong>Mitigation</strong> for previous permit/other historic use<br />

Anticipated Wildlife Utilization Based on Literature Review (List of species Anticipated Utilization by Listed Species (List species, their legal<br />

that are representative of the assessment area and reasonably expected to classification (E, T, SSC), type of use, and intensity of use of the<br />

be found )<br />

assessment area)<br />

The Geographic Relationships/Hydrologic<br />

Connections, Description, and Significant<br />

Nearby Features of Part I – Qualitative<br />

Characterization should be evaluated in light<br />

of the information obtained during the field<br />

survey, and<br />

During the field assessment, observations of<br />

wildlife use or signs of use as well as listed<br />

species should be documented in the section<br />

related to wildlife utilization in Part I –<br />

Qualitative Characterization<br />

Observed Evidence of Wildlife Utilization (List species directly observed, or other signs such as tracks, droppings, casings, nests, etc.):<br />

Additional relevant factors:<br />

Should be filled out in the field<br />

during the field survey…<br />

Should be checked and updated in<br />

the field during the field survey…<br />

Finally, the last section of Part I should be<br />

updated based on observation of the<br />

assessment area and its immediately<br />

surrounding area.<br />

<strong>Assessment</strong> date(s):<br />

Form 62-345.900(1), F.A.C. [ effective date 02-04-2004 ]<br />

* The SFP is not part of Ch 62-345, but it is presented here as a tool that may be used to assist in field assessments of the project area.
