Common use of Land Cover Types and Impacts and Supplemental Tables Clause in Contracts

Land Cover Types and Impacts and Supplemental Tables.  For all terrestrial land cover types please provide calculations to the nearest hundredth of an acre (0.01). For aquatic land cover types please provide calculations to the nearest thousandth of an acre (0.001).  Permanent Impacts are broadly defined in the ECCC HCP/NCCP to include all areas removed from an undeveloped or habitat-providing state and includes land in the same parcel or project that is not developed, graded, physically altered, or directly affected in any way but is isolated from natural areas by the covered activity. Unless such undeveloped land is dedicated to the Preserve System or is a deed-restricted creek setback, the development mitigation fee will apply (if proposed, would require Conservancy approval).  Temporary Impacts are broadly defined in the ECCC HCP/NCCP as any impact on vegetation or habitat that does not result in permanent habitat removal (i.e. vegetation can eventually recover).  If wetland (riparian woodland/scrub, wetland, or aquatic) land cover types are present on the parcel but will not be impacted please discuss in the following section 4) Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters. Wetland impact fees will only be charged if wetland features are impacted. However, development fees will apply to the entire parcel.  Stream land cover type is considered a linear feature where impacts are calculated based on length impacted. The acreage within a stream, below Top of Bank (TOB), must be assigned to the adjacent land cover type(s). Insert area of impact to stream below TOB in parentheses after the Land Cover acreage number (e.g., Riparian Woodland/Scrub: 10 (0.036) – where 10 is the total impacted acreage including 0.036 acre, which is the acreage within stream TOB). Complete following supplemental Stream Feature Detail table to provide information for linear feet.  Total Impacts acreage should be the total parcel acreage (development project) or project footprint acreage (rural infrastructure or utility project).
