Trends and patterns in section 404 permitting requiring compensatory mitigation in Oregon and Washington,USA 总被引:1,自引:4,他引:1

The effects of permitting decisions made under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act for which compensatory mitigation was required
were examined. Information was compiled on permits issued in Oregon (January 1977–January 1987) and Washington (1980–1986).
Data on the type of project permitted, wetland impacted, and mitigation project were collected and analyzed. The records of
the Portland and Seattle District Offices of the US Army Corps of Engineers and of Environmental Protection Agency Region
X were the primary sources of information.
The 58 permits issued during the years of concern in Oregon document impacts to 82 wetlands and the creation of 80. The total
area of wetland impacted was 74 ha while 42 ha were created, resulting in a net loss of 32 ha or 43%. The 35 permits issued
in Washington document impacts to 72 wetlands and the creation of 52. The total area of wetland impacted was 61 ha while 45
ha were created, resulting in a net loss of 16 ha or 26%. In both states, the number of permits requiring compensation increased
with time. The area of the impacted and created wetlands tended to be ≤0.40 ha. Permitted activity occurred primarily west
of the Cascade Mountains and in the vicinity of urban centers. Estuarine and palustrine wetlands were impacted and created
most frequently. The wetland types created most often were not always the same as those impacted; therefore, local gains and
losses of certain types occurred. In both states the greatest net loss in area was in freshwater marshes.
This study illustrates how Section 404 permit data might be used in managing a regional wetland resource. However, because
the data readily available were either incomplete or of poor quality, the process of gathering information was very labor
intensive. Since similar analyses would be useful to resource managers and scientists from other areas, development of an
up-to-date standardized data base is recommended. 相似文献

We inventoried wetland impoundments in the Louisiana, USA, coastal zone from the late 1900s to 1985. Historically, impoundment
of wetlands for reclamation resulted in direct wetland loss after levees (dikes) failed and the impounded area was permanently
flooded, reverting not to wetland, but to open-water habitat. A current management approach is to surround wetlands by levees
and water control structures, a practice termed semi-impoundment marsh management. The purpose of this semi-impoundment is
to retard saltwater intrusion and reduce water level fluctuations in an attempt to reduce wetland loss, which is a serious
problem in coastal Louisiana. In order to quantify the total impounded area, we used historic data and high-altitude infrared
photography to map coastal impoundments. Our goal was to produce a documented inventory of wetlands intentionally impounded
by levees in the coastal zone of Louisiana in order to provide a benchmark for further research.
We inventoried 370,658 ha within the coastal zone that had been intentionally impounded before 1985. This area is equal to
about 30% of the total wetland area in the coastal zone. Of that total area, approximately 12% (43,000 ha) is no longer impounded
(i.e., failed impoundments; levees no longer exist or only remnants remain). Of the 328,000 ha still impounded, about 65%
(214,000 ha) is developed (agriculture, aquaculture, urban and industrial development, and contained spoil). The remaining
35% (114,000 ha) of impoundments are in an undeveloped state (wetland or openwater habitat). In December 1985, approximately
50% (78,000 ha) of the undeveloped and failed impoundments were open-water habitat. This inventory will allow researchers
to monitor future change in land-water ratios that occur within impounded wetlands and thus to assess the utility of coastal
wetland management using impoundments. 相似文献

Wetland loss and substitution by the Section 404 permit program in southern California,USA 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To test the effectiveness of the 404 permit program in preventing a net loss of wetland resources, 75 Section 404 projects permitted in the years 1987–1989 and located in a portion of southern California were evaluated. From this group of projects, 80.47 ha of wetlands were affected by Section 404 permits and the Army Corps of Engineers required 111.62 ha of wetland mitigation. To verify the successful completion of each mitigation project, all 75 project sites were visited and evaluated based on the amount of dead vegetation, growth and coverage, and the number of invasive species. Based on the field verification results, the actual amount of completed mitigation area was 77.33 ha, resulting in a net loss of 3.14 ha of wetland resources in the years 1987–1989. By comparing the types of wetlands lost to the types of wetlands mitigated, it is apparent that, in particular, freshwater wetlands are experiencing a disproportionately greater loss of area and that riparian woodland wetlands are most often used in mitigation efforts. The net result of these accumulated actions is an overall substitution of wetland types throughout the region. Results also indicate that, typically, large-scale mitigation projects are more successful compared to smaller projects and that successful compliance efforts are not evenly distributed throughout the region. We recommend that better monitoring, mitigation in-kind, mitigation banking, and planning on a regional or watershed scale could greatly improve the effectiveness of the Section 404 permitting program. 相似文献

This paper examines causes and consequences of wetland losses in coastal Louisiana. Land loss is a cumulative impact, the result of many impacts both natural and artificial. Natural losses are caused by subsidence, decay of abandoned river deltas, waves, and storms. Artificial losses result from flood-control practices, impoundments, and dredging and subsequent erosion of artificial channels. Wetland loss also results from spoil disposal upon wetlands and land reclamation projects.Total land loss in Louisiana's coastal zone is at least 4,300 ha/year. Some wetlands are converted to spoil banks and other eco-systems so that wetland losses are probably two to three times higher. Annual wetland losses in the Barataria Bay basin are 2.6% of the wetland area. Human activities are the principal determinants of land loss. The present total wetland area directly lost because of canals may be close to 10% if spoil area is included. The interrelationship between hydrology, land, vegetation, substrate, subsidence, and sediment supply are complicated; however, hydrologic units with high canal density are generally associated with higher rates of land loss and the rate may be accelerating.Some cumulative impacts of land loss are increased saltwater intrusion, loss of capacity to buffer the impact of storms, and large additions of nutrients. One measure of the impact is that roughly $8–17 × 106 (U.S.A.) of fisheries products and services are lost annually in Louisiana.Viewed at the level of the hydrologic unit, land loss transcends differences in local vegetation, substrate, geology, and hydrology. Land management should therefore focus at that level of organization. Proper guideline recommendations require an appreciation of the long-term interrelations of the wetland estuarine system. 相似文献

The extent and causes of changes in the fresh-water wetlands of South Kingstown, Rhode Island were determined through field work and through the analysis of panchromatic aerial photographs taken in 1939 and 1972. During this period, there was a net loss of 0.9 percent of the total area (2345.2 ha) of wetland present in 1939. Highway construction and residential development accounted for most of this loss. Approximately 17 percent of the wetland present in 1939 had changed sufficiently by 1972 to warrant reclassification. Plant succession alone accounted for 57 percent of the changes in wetland types, while man's activities were influential in 41 percent of the cases. Ninety-two percent of the natural changes in wetland types was progressive, while 58 percent of the changes induced by man and undetermined causes was retrogressive. Man's major role was to alter the water regimes and vegetation of wetlands. There was a decrease in wetland diversity as the most abundant type, wooded swamp, grew in area while the abundance of shallow marshes, meadows, and shrub swamps declined. A knowledge of wetland dynamics is essential in the management of wetlands for a diversity of wildlife and other natural values. 相似文献

Section 404 wetland mitigation and permit success criteria in Pennsylvania,USA, 1986-1999 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Twenty-three Section 404 permits in central Pennsylvania (covering a wetland age range of 1–14 years) were examined to determine
the type of mitigation wetland permitted, how the sites were built, and what success criteria were used for evaluation. Most
permits allowed for mitigation out-of-kind, either vegetatively or through hydrogeomorphic class. The mitigation process has
resulted in a shift from impacted wetlands dominated by woody species to less vegetated mitigation wetlands, a trend that
appears to be occurring nationwide. An estimate of the percent cover of emergent vegetation was the only success criterion
specified in the majority of permits. About 60% of the mitigation wetlands were judged as meeting their originally defined
success criteria, some after more than 10 years. The permit process appears to have resulted in a net gain of almost 0.05
ha of wetlands per mitigation project. However, due to the replacement of emergent, scrub–shrub, and forested wetlands with
open water ponds or uplands, mitigation practices probably led to a net loss of vegetated wetlands. 相似文献

Coastal wetlands are a valuable resource to North Carolina, USA, representing important habitat for marine organisms and providing flood control areas and buffer zones from marine storms. An analysis of wetland development trends in coastal North Carolina from 1970 to 1984 was conducted using over 3000 files containing 15 years of permitting records. The total amount of coastal wetland area altered due to authorized development under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA), the Dredge and Fill Law, and Section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act is 1740 ha. This represents nearly 2% of the salt marsh wetlands along the coast of North Carolina. The number of permits issued steadily increased during the 1980s; however, the total amount of wetland loss decreased each year. A few large projects in the early 1970s accounted for nearly 70% of all wetland area developed during the 15-year period. Nearly two-thirds of all projects involving wetland destruction involved impacts on high marsh ecosystems. Bulkheads, canals, and filling activities made up 80% of the projects requiring permits; 62% of the permits were issued to private landowners, but this group accounted for only 16% of the losses of wetland area. Utility companies, which accounted for less than 1% of the permits issued, were responsible for 46% of the permitted wetland loss during the 15-year study period. Future studies should address agriculture and forestry practices which are exempt under CAMA laws and therefore their effects on wetland alteration have not been quantified. 相似文献

Habitat change in coastal Louisiana from 1955/6 to 1978 was analyzed to determine the influence of geological and man-made changes on landscape patterns within 7.5 min quadrangle maps. Three quantitative analyses were used: principal components anlaysis, multiple regression analysis, and cluster analysis.Regional differences in land loss rates reflect variations in geology and the deltaic growth/decay cycles, man-induced chages in hydrology (principally canal dredging and spoil banking), and land-use changes (principally urbanization and agricultural expansion). The coastal zone is not homogeneous with respect to these variables and the interaction between causal factors leading to wetland loss is therefore locally variable and complex.The relationship between wetland loss, hydrologic changes, and geology can be described with statistically meaningful results, even though these data are insufficient to precisely quantify the relationship. However, these data support the hypothesis that the indirect impacts of man-induced changes (hydrologic and land use) may be as influential as the direct impacts resulting in converting wetlands to open water (canals) or modified (impounded) habitat.Three regions within the Louisiana coastal zone can be defined, based on the potential causal factors used in the analyses. The moderate (mean = 22%) wetland loss rates in region 1 are a result of relatively high canal density and developed area in marshes which overlie sediments of moderate age and depth; local geology acts, in this case, to lessen indirect impacts. On the other hand, wetland loss rates in region 2 are high (mean = 36%), despite fewer man-induced impacts; the potential for increased wetland loss due to both direct and indirect effects of man's activity in these areas is high. Conversely, wetland loss (mean = 20%) in region 3 is apparently least influenced by man's activity in the coastal zone because of sedimentary geology (old, thin sediments), even though these areas have already experienced significant direct habitat alteration and wetland loss. 相似文献

We examined the geology of a small inland wetland in Hampton, Connecticut to determine its postglacial history and to assess
the severity of human impact at this remote wooded site. Using stratigraphic evidence, we dernonstrate that the present wetland
was created when sediment pollution from a 19th-century railroad filled a preexisting artificial reservoir, and that the prehistoric
wetland was a narrow drainage swale along Hampton Brook. This same, severely impacted wetland was interpreted by the Pulitzer
Prize-winning naturalist Edwin Way Teale as a beautiful wilderness area of particular interest. These conflicting perceptions
indicate that artificial wetlands can be naturally mitigated in less than a century of healing, even in the absence of deliberate
management. We also point out that the “wilderness” value of the Teale wetland was in the eye of the beholder and that unseen
human impacts may have improved the aesthetic experience. 相似文献

Land-cover change in upper Barataria Basin estuary,Louisiana, 1972-1992: increases in Wetland area 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Barataria Basin, Louisiana, USA, is an extensive wetland and coastal estuary system of great economic and intrinsic value.
Although high rates of wetland loss along the coastal margin of the Barataria Basin have been well documented, little information
exists on whether freshwater wetlands in the upper basin have changed. Our objectives were to quantify land-cover change in
the upper basin over 20 years from 1972–1992 and to determine land-cover transition rates among land-cover types. Using 80-m
resolution Landsat MSS data from the North American Landscape Characterization (NALC) data archive, we classified images from
three time steps (1972, 1985, 1992) into six land-cover types: agriculture, urban, bottomland hardwood forest, swamp forest,
freshwater marsh, and open water. Significant changes in land cover occurred within the upper Barataria Basin over the study
period. Urban land increased from 8% to 17% of the total upper basin area, primarily due to conversions from agricultural
land, and to a lesser degree, bottomland forest. Swamp forest increased from 30% to 41%, associated with conversions from
bottomland hardwood forest and freshwater marsh. Overall, bottomland forest decreased 38% and total wetland area increased
21%. Within the upper Barataria, increases in total wetland area may be due to land subsidence. Based on our results, if present
trends in the reduction of bottomland forest land cover were to continue, the upper Barataria Basin may have no bottomland
hardwood forests left by the year 2025, as it is subjected to multiple stressors both in the higher elevations (from urbanization)
and lower elevations (most likely from land subsidence). These results suggest that changes in the upper freshwater portions
of coastal estuaries can be large and quite different from patterns observed in the more saline coastal margins. 相似文献

The United States Environmental Protection Agency's Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP) will monitor the
nation's resources by evaluating the status and trends of selected indicators of condition using a probability-based sampling
design. The EMAP-Wetlands program will monitor the condition of the nation's wetlands. The EMAP classification system is an
aggregation of the many subclasses of the US Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) classification
system. This aggregation results in fewer wetland classes with more wetlands per class than the NWI system. Aggregation of
the NWI classification was based primarily on dominant vegetation cover, flooding regimes, dominant water source, and adjacency
to rivers and lakes. We evaluated the EMAP classification system and sampling design using NWI digital wetlands data for portions
of Illinois, Washington, North Dakota, and South Dakata. Relative numbers of wetlands, total areas, average areas, and common
versus rare classes were compared between the EMAP and NWI classification systems. As expected, the EMAP classification provided
fewer wetland polygons, each with larger areas, without altering total wetland area. Summary statistics comparing sample estimates
to true population parameters (represented by the NWI data) demonstrated the effectiveness of the EMAP sampling design with
the exception of rare EMAP classes in the selected regions. Although simple random sampling is inadequate for both large and
small wetlands, the EMAP sampling design is readily adapted to provide better estimates for these categories. Aggregating
the NWI classification to the EMAP classification provides fewer wetland classes, with more wetlands per class, for EMAP's
annual reports and statistical summaries.

Over the next half century the human population is expected to grow rapidly, resulting in the conversion of rural areas into
cities. Wetlands in these regions are therefore under threat, even though they have important ecosystem services and functions.
Many obligate marsh-nesting birds in North America have shown declines over the past 40 years, and it is important to evaluate
marsh bird community response to increased urbanization. We surveyed 20 coastal marshes in southern Ontario, Canada, and found
that obligate marsh-nesting birds preferred rural over urban wetlands, generalist marsh-nesting birds showed no preference,
while synanthropic species showed a trend towards increased richness and abundance in urban marshes. The Index of Marsh Bird
Community Integrity (IMBCI) was calculated for each wetland and we found significantly higher scores in rural compared to
urban wetlands. The presence of a forested buffer surrounding the marsh was not an important factor in predicting the distribution
of generalists, obligates, synanthropic species, or the IMBCI. More isolated marshes had a lower species richness of obligate
marsh-nesters and a lower IMBCI than less isolated marshes. Based on our results, we recommend that urban land use is not
the dominant land use within 1000 m from any wetland, as it negatively affects the abundance and richness of obligate marsh-nesters,
and the overall integrity of the avian community. We also recommend that all existing wetlands be conserved to mitigate against
isolation effects and to preserve biodiversity. 相似文献

As inland wetlands face increasing pressure for development, both the federal government and individual states have begun reevaluating their respective wetland regulatory schemes. This article focuses first on the effectiveness of the past, present, and proposed federal regulations, most notably the Section 404, Dredge and Fill Permit Program, in dealing with shrinking wetland resources. The article then addresses the status of state involvement in this largely federal area, as well as state preparedness to assume primacy should federal priorities change. Finally, the subject of comprehensive legislation for wetland protection is investigated, and the article concludes with some procedural suggestions for developing a model law. 相似文献

The extent of wetland in New Zealand has decreased by approximately 90% since European settlement began in 1840. Remaining
wetlands continue to be threatened by drainage, weeds, and pest invasion. This article presents a rapid method for broad-scale
mapping and prioritising palustrine and estuarine wetlands for conservation. Classes of wetland (lacustrine, estuarine, riverine,
marine, and palustrine) were mapped using Landsat ETM+ imagery and centre-points of palustrine and estuarine sites as ancillary
data. The results shown are for the Manawatu–Wanganui region, which was found to have 3060 ha of palustrine and 250 ha of
estuarine wetlands. To set conservation priorities, landscape indicators were computed from a land-cover map and a digital
terrain model. Four global indicators were used (representativeness, area, surrounding naturalness, and connectivity), and
each was assigned a value to score wetland sites in the region. The final score is an additive function that weights the relative
importance of each indicator (i.e., multicriteria decision analysis). The whole process of mapping and ranking wetlands in
the Manawatu–Wanganui region took only 6 weeks. The rapid methodology means that consistent wetland inventories and ranking
can now actually be produced at reasonable cost, and conservation resources may therefore be better targeted. With complete
inventories and priority lists of wetlands, managers will be able to plan for conservation without having to wait for the
collection of detailed biologic information, which may now also be prioritised. 相似文献

A review of wetland impacts authorized under the New Jersey Freshwater Wetlands Protection Act (FWPA) was conducted based on permitting data compiled for the period 1 July 1988 to 31 December 1993. Data regarding the acreage of wetlands impacted, location of impacts by drainage basin and watershed, and mitigation were analyzed. Wetland impacts authorized and mitigation under New Jersey's program were evaluated and compared with Section 404 information available for New Jersey and other regions of the United States.Under the FWPA, 3003 permits were issued authorizing impacts to 234.76 ha (602.27 acres) of wetlands and waters. Compensatory mitigation requirements for impacts associated with individual permits required the creation of 69.20 ha. (171.00 acres), and restoration of 16.49 ha (40.75 acres) of wetlands. Cumulative impacts by watershed were directly related to levels of development and population growth.The FWPA has resulted in an estimated 67% reduction [44.32 ha (109.47 acres) vs 136.26 ha (336.56 acres)] in annual wetland and water impacts when compared with Section 404 data for New Jersey. For mitigation, the slight increase in wetland acreage over acreage impacted is largely consistent with Section 404 data.Based on this evaluation, the FWPA has succeeded in reducing the level of wetland impacts in New Jersey. However, despite stringent regulation of activities in and around wetlands, New Jersey continues to experience approximately 32 ha (79 acres) of unmitigated wetland impacts annually. Our results suggest that additional efforts focusing on minimizing wetland impacts and increasing wetlands creation are needed to attain a goal of no net loss of freshwater wetlands. 相似文献

Hydrogeomorphic (HGM) functional assessment models were used to assess whether function in created wetlands of two ages (1 year
old and >12 years old) was equivalent to that of natural (reference) mainstem floodplain wetlands. Reference wetlands scored
higher than both created age classes for providing energy dissipation and short-term surface water storage. Reference wetlands scored higher in maintaining native plant community and structure than 1-year-old sites, and 12-year-old wetlands scored higher than reference sites for providing vertebrate habitat structure. Analysis of individual model variables showed that reference wetlands had greater vegetative biomass and higher soil organic
matter content than both created wetland age classes. Created wetlands were farther from natural wetlands and had smaller
mean forest patch sizes within a 1-km-radius circle around the site than did the reference sites, indicating less hydrologic
connectivity. Created wetlands also had less microtopographic variation than reference wetlands. The 1-year-old created sites
were placed in landscape settings with greater land use diversity and road density than reference sites. The 12-year-old sites
had a higher gradient and a higher percentage of their surrounding area in urban land use. These results show that the created
wetlands were significantly structurally different (if not functionally so) from reference wetlands even after 12 years. The
most profound differences were in hydrology and the characteristics of the surrounding landscape. More attention needs to
be focused on placing created wetlands in appropriate settings to encourage proper hydrodynamics, eliminate habitat fragmentation,
and minimize the effects of stressors to the site. 相似文献

The rationale and outline of an implementation plan for restoring coastal wetlands in Louisiana is presented. The rationale
for the plan is based on reversing the consequences of documented cause-and-effect relationships between wetland loss and
hydrologic change. The main feature is to modify the extensive interlocking network of dredged spoil deposits, or spoil banks,
by reestablishing a more natural water flow at moderate flow velocity (<5 cm/sec). Guidelines for site selection from thousands
of potential sites are proposed. Examples of suitable sites are given for intermediate marshes. These sites exhibit rapid
deterioration following partial or complete hydrologic impoundment, implying a strong hydrologic, rather than sedimentological,
cause of wetland deterioration.
We used an exploratory hydrologic model to guide determination of the amount of spoil bank to be removed. The results from
an economic model indicated a very effective cost-benefit ratio. Both models and practical experience with other types of
restoration plans, in Louisiana and elsewhere, exhibit an economy of scale, wherein larger projects are more cost effective
than smaller projects. However, in contrast to these other projects, spoil bank management may be 100 to 1000 times more cost
effective and useful in wetland tracts <1000 ha in size. Modest spoil bank management at numerous small wetland sites appears
to offer substantial positive attributes compared to alternative and more intensive management at a few larger wetland sites. 相似文献

Modeling the Suitability of Potential Wetland Mitigation Sites with a Geographic Information System 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Wetland mitigation is frequently required to compensate for unavoidable impacts to wetlands. Site conditions and landscape context are critical factors influencing the functions that created wetlands perform. We developed a spatial model and used a geographic information system (GIS) to identify suitable locations for wetland mitigation sites. The model used six variables to characterize site conditions: hydrology, soils, historic condition, vegetation cover, adjacent vegetation, and land use. For each variable, a set of suitability scores was developed that indicated the wetland establishment potential for different variable states. Composite suitability scores for individual points on the landscape were determined from the weighted geometric mean of suitability scores for each variable at each point. These composite scores were grouped into five classes and mapped as a wetland mitigation suitability surface with a GIS. Sites with high suitability scores were further evaluated using information on the feasibility of site modification and project cost. This modeling approach could be adapted by planners for use in identifying the suitability of locations as wetland mitigation sites at any site or region. 相似文献

There is a general lack of understanding of wetland processes and a general paucity of scientific research to predict the
effects of development on wetland boundary. This paper presents the results of a survey of wetland managers as to how they
delineate wetland boundaries, define compatible land uses, and restrict land uses adjacent to wetland boundaries. A major
finding from the survey is that 75% of land-use planners and wetland managers failed to identify any compatible land use or
restricted land use for development proposals that may affect provincially significant wetlands. The government agencies overwhelmingly
lack adequate methodologies and/or criteria to delineate and protect wetland boundaries. The paper closes with a plea to consider
dynamic hydrological factors in land-use planning. 相似文献

Changes in the coastal landscape of Southern Sinaloa (Mexico), between 2000 and 2010, were analyzed to relate spatial variations in wetlands extent with the provision and economic value of the ecosystem services (ES). Remote sensing techniques applied to Landsat TM imagery were used to evaluate land use/land cover changes while the value transfer method was used to assess the value of ES by land cover category. Five wetland types and other four land covers were found as representative of the coastal landscape. Findings reveal a 14 % decrease in the saltmarsh/forested mangrove area and a 12 % increase in the area of shrimp pond aquaculture (artificial wetland) during the study period. ES valuation shows that the total value flow increased by 9 % from $215 to $233 million (2007 USD) during the 10-year period. This increase is explained as result of the high value worldwide assigned to saltmarsh. We recognize limitations in the transfer-based approach in quantifying and mapping ES values in the region, but this method provides with value estimates spatially defined, and also provides some guidance in the preliminary screening of policies and projected development in the context of data-scarce regions. 相似文献
