Accessibility Rating |
Relative
measure of how difficult it
is to reach a specific survey
site
where 1 = easily accessible
and 5 = difficult to reach
by both foot and vehicle. |
|---|---|
ALS |
Above
Sea Level. All
elevations
are in feet above
sea
level. |
Bank Height |
Measured
from water line to top of
bank; measured in feet unless
otherwise indicated. |
Fish Barrier |
Anything in the stream that significantly interferes with upstream movement of fish. |
Infrastructure Threat |
An
infrastruture (i.e., public
works systems such as roads,
bridges, or any other man-made
structure) that is or will
be affected wihin 10 years
by continued erosion. |
Land Use |
Dominant land use closest to stream (within 50') when facing downstream; includes: crops, pasture, lawn, paved, shrubs & small trees, forest, multiflora rose. |

The side of the stream bank surveyed; always looking downstream. |
Tributary
Size |
Dry
Drain: Varying
sizes, flows only in wet weather
or storms. Trickle: Barely running, but constant tiny flow, inches wide. Stream: Running freely and constant; feet across, inches deep. Creek: Yards across, a few inches to feet deep, named tributary (i.e., Breakneck Run, Indian Run). |
Water Depth Width |
Actual water depth width, as opposed to creek bank depth and width; measured in feet unless otherwise indicated. |
