Establish a 30 Foot Riparian Buffer Areas where a buffer was identified as being 30 feet or less were identified as a problem. Figure 3-4 identifies the locations of these sites. Forty-two (42) sites were identified as having riparian buffers 30 feet or less. Tasks • Establish a 30 foot wide buffer. Each road stream crossing identified as having a 30 foot or less riparian buffer was evaluated using air photos. The length of a riparian buffer 30 feet or less in width was measured on the aerial photos. The estimated length of riparian buffer needed is identified in the last column of the table in Appendix E. This length represents the upstream side of the road stream crossing and incorporates both side of the waterbody as necessary. A total of approximately 52,728 linear feet of buffer was identified for re-establishment. Figure 3-4 Riparian Buffer Issues Riley Twp Cutler Olive Twp £¤ 127 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

7. Establish a 100 Foot Riparian buffer Areas where a buffer was identified as being between 30 and 100 feet in width were identified. Figure 3-4 identifies the locations of these sites. The surveys identified 52 riparian buffers 100 feet or less in width, but of those 52 sites 42 are 30 feet or less Tasks • Establish a 100 foot wide buffer. Each road stream crossing identified as having a 100 foot or less riparian buffer was also evaluated using air photos. The length of riparian buffer 100 feet or less in width was measured on the aerial photos. The estimated length of the riparian buffer needed is identified in the last column of the table in Appendix E. This length represents the upstream side of the road stream crossing and incorporates both side of the waterbody as necessary. A total of approximately 60,752 linear feet of buffer was identified for reestablishment. 8. Trash Clean Up Volunteers were able to identify whether trash was not present, present, or abundant. Reaches requiring cleaning were assumed to include any reaches with trash present or in abundance. Trash observations were noted at 4 of the sites investigated. Figure 3-5 identifies the location of all of the trash cleanup sites. Tasks • Visit the site and clean up the trash • For long term purposes, coordinate with existing river clean up programs to extend the program to these areas. 3-10 Looking Glass River Watershed April 2007
