| Functional Rating* | 13.0% | 2.8% | −15.2% | 0.0% | 0.0% | 35.7% | 35.8% | 13.2% | Attribute Definitions: 1) Floodplain inundated in relatively frequent events (1-3 years) 2) Active/stable beaver dams 3) Sinuosity, width/depth ratio, and gradient are in balance with the landscape setting (i.e., landform, geology, and bioclimatic region) 4) Riparian zone is widening or has achieved potential extent 6) Diverse age-class distribution (recruitment for maintenance/recovery) 7) Diverse composition of vegetation (for maintenance/recovery) 8) Species present indicate of riparian soil moisture characteristics 9) Streambank vegetation is comprised of those plants or plant communities that have root masses capable of withstanding high streamflow events 11) Adequate vegetative cover present to protect banks and dissipate energy during high flows 13) Floodplain and channel characteristics (i.e. rocks, overflow channels, coarse and/or large woody debris) adequate to dissipate energy 14) Point bars are revegetating 15) Lateral stream movement is associated with sinuosity 16) System is vertically stable 17) Stream is in balance with the water and sediment being supplied by the watershed (i.e., no excessive erosion or deposition) Functional Rating ? PFC (Proper Functioning Condition), FAR (Functional At Risk) w/trend, or Nonfunctional Positive values represent overall improvement while negative values represent overall degradation *Values on either Maggie Creek or the entire assessed system greater than 10% we consider a robust indication of change for further evaluation. |
