Enhanced Riparian and Wetland Buffers Sample Clauses

Enhanced Riparian and Wetland Buffers. WDNR prepared an HCP covering forest practices activities on non-federal and non-tribal land in Washington to address the conservation needs of anadromous and native fish and seven stream-associated amphibians (Washington Department of Natural Resources 2005). USFWS and the National Marine Fisheries Service approved the Washington Forest Practices HCP and provided take authorizations to the State under Section 10 of the ESA. The take authorizations for aquatic species apply to qualifying landowners in receipt of an approved forest practices permit and whose forest management activities affecting aquatic resources are conducted in accord with Forest Practices Rules. The forest management activities that are covered by the take authorizations are, for the most part, conducted in the riparian areas adjacent to fish- and non-fish-bearing streams, and road construction and maintenance activities in proximity to streams. LCT forest management activities, as they relate to effects on aquatic species, were analyzed under the associated EIS and are covered under the Washington Forest Practices HCP and incidental take permit. Forest Practices Rules (WAC 222-30) establish riparian and wetland management zones (buffers) for various stream and wetland types and specify conditions under which harvesting may occur within the buffers. The buffers under this agreement are more robust than the standard Forest Practice Rules and ultimately result in more trees within the buffer zones. These buffers will be enhanced on LCT forest lands as follows:  Fish habitat streams (Type S and Type F): Buffer zones will be at least equal to the total width of the riparian management zones specified by Forest Practices Rules. Portions of the lake buffer lying west of the Lake Chaplain Road may be harvested with adjacent even-age harvest units to protect facility infrastructure from windthrow damage. Otherwise, buffer trees will only be harvested where stream- crossing roads or cable yarding corridors are necessary.  Non-fish habitat streams (Type Np and Type Ns): Buffer zones will be at least 50 feet wide along the entire stream length. Buffer trees will only be harvested where stream-crossing roads or cable yarding corridors are necessary.  Wetlands (Type A and Type B): Buffer zones around non-forested wetlands, greater than 5 acres, will be at least 200 feet. Portions of the wetland buffer lying west of the Lake Chaplain Road may be harvested with adjacent even-age harvest units to pr...
