6 Report Introduction This report summarizes third-year (Year 3) monitoring activities at the 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Mitigation Site. Included are a site description, the performance standards, an explanation of monitoring methods, and an evaluation of site development. Monitoring activities included vegetation surveys and photo-documentation on August 6-8, and assessments of wetland hydrology on March 6, March 21, and April 4 in Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

7 What is the 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Mitigation Site? This 3.1-acre mitigation site (Figure 1) is a combination of rehabilitated and restored/newly established wetland located on the southwest side of SR 520, east of Bellevue Way Northeast. This site partially compensates for the loss of 6.78 acres of wetlands due to road improvements along SR 520. The realigned channel, re-connected floodplain, and expanded wetland area are designed to provide an increase in water quality, hydrologic, and habitat functions. Figure 1 Site Sketch The 520 Yarrow Creek Mitigation Site contains scrub-shrub wetland and upland buffer areas along a realigned section of Yarrow Creek. Emergent plantings were included along the banks of Yarrow Creek and in micro-depressions scattered throughout the scrub-shrub area. Appendix 2 includes site directions. 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

8 What are the performance standards for this site? Year 3 Performance Standard 1 The soils in the rehabilitated wetland will be saturated to the surface, or standing water will be present within 12 inches of the surface for at least four consecutive weeks (10 percent) of the growing season in years when rainfall meets or exceeds the 30-year average. Performance Standard 2 Native, wetland (facultative and wetter) woody species (planted and volunteer) will achieve an average density of at least four plants per 100 square feet in the scrub-shrub and forested communities of the rehabilitated wetland. Performance Standard 3 In the streamside planting area, emergent native vegetation (planted and volunteer) will provide at least 25 percent cover. Gravel stream bed areas will not be included in the cover assessment. Performance Standard 4 Washington State and King County-listed Class A noxious weeds identified on the site shall be eradicated. Performance Standard 5 King County-listed Class B and C weeds identified on the site shall be controlled. Control of noxious weeds means to prevent all seed production and to prevent the dispersal of all propagative parts capable of forming new plants. Performance Standard 6 Noxious weeds listed by King County as non-designate including reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea), non-native blackberries (Rubus species), and Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) will not exceed 25 percent aerial cover in rehabilitated wetlands and riparian uplands. Performance Standard 7 Native woody species (planted and volunteer) will achieve an average density of at least four plants per 100 square feet in the upland buffer. 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

9 Performance Standard 8 Noxious weeds listed by King County as non-designate including reed canarygrass, non-native blackberries, and Scotch broom will not exceed 25 percent aerial cover in buffers. Year 10 Performance Standard 9 Aerial cover of native woody species will be at least 70 percent in the scrub-shrub and forested communities in the rehabilitated wetland. Desirable native species colonizing portions of the site will be included in the aerial cover. Performance Standard 10 In the streamside planting area, emergent native vegetation (planted and volunteer) will provide at least 50 percent cover. Gravel stream bed areas will not be included in the cover assessment. Performance Standard 11 Aerial cover of native woody species will be at least 50 percent in the upland buffer. Appendix 1 shows the as-built planting plan (Gage 2015). 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

10 How were the performance standards evaluated? WSDOT staff collected hydrology data using methods described in the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987), Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region (Version 2.0) (USACE 2010). Shallow groundwater monitoring wells were installed following the Corps of Engineers guidance (USACE 2005) to evaluate groundwater during the growing season (Performance Standard 1). Wells one through three were observed on three separate visits and Wells four and five were fitted with Hobo data loggers (See Appendix 3). Appendix 3, Table 5 documents the sample method used for all of the remaining performance standards (PS) as required by the mitigation plan. For additional details on the methods see the WSDOT Wetland Mitigation Site Monitoring Methods Paper (WSDOT 2008). Figure 2 Site Sampling Design (2018) Placement of Baseline: The main baseline as placed west to east along the north side of the site. The riparian baseline was placed along emergent pockets in the riparian zone (only on the west side of the site due to deep inundation on the rest of the site). Main Baseline: Length 290m Transects 1-15 Riparian Baseline: 57m Transects Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

11 How is the site developing? This site is developing faster than expected, and meeting all final-year (Year 10) performance standards in Year 3. Cover of native woody and herbaceous plant species is high. Cover of invasive species is low. The purple loosestrife observed during monitoring was removed and will continue to be targeted for control in the future. Beaver altered the hydrology on site, creating areas with deep inundation. So far, vegetation die-off due to inundation is low, and desired wetland hydrology is present. Water quality and wildlife habitat functions have improved. Coyote scat and four species of birds were observed at the time of monitoring. 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

12 Results for Performance Standard 1 (Wetland Hydrology): Wetland hydrology is present across most of the site (Appendix 3, Tables 1, 2, and 3). A small portion of the intended wetland around Well 1 (Appendix 1) was dry, however percent of the site was saturated or inundated on all three hydrology visits. Beaver have influenced the hydrology, creating areas of deep inundation (Photo 1). Results for Performance Standard 2 and 9 (Four wetland woody plants/100ft 2 in the PSS/PFO rehabilitated wetland; 70% cover native woody species in the PSS/PFO rehabilitated wetland): Density of native woody species is qualitatively estimated at greater than four plants/100ft 2 (Photo 2). Cover of native woody species in the scrub-shrub/forested wetland is estimated at 76% (CI80%= 68-84%). This exceeds the finalyear performance standard target. Dominant species include red alder (Alnus rubra), redosier dogwood (Cornus alba), Pacific willow (Salix lasiandra), and Sitka willow (Salix sitchensis).

13 Density in the PSS/PFO (August 2018) Results for Performance Standard 3 and 10 (50% cover emergent native wetland vegetation in the streamside planting area): Cover of emergent wetland vegetation is estimated at 67% (CI80%= 54-80%) (Photo 3). This exceeds the final-year performance standard target. Dominant species include rice cutgrass (Leersia oryzoides), small-fruited bulrush (Scirpus microcarpus), woolgrass (Scirpus cyperinus), and soft rush (Juncus effusus). Results for Performance Standard 4 (No Washington State or King County-listed Class A noxious weeds across the site): No Class A noxious weeds observed. Results for Performance Standard 5 (Control of King County-listed Class B and C weeds across the site): Photo 3 Emergent cover in the streamside planting area (August 2018) Purple loosestrife, a King County-listed Class B designate, was observed scattered in small amounts throughout the wetland. 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report

14 Results for Performance Standard 6 (Less than 25% cover King County non-designate noxious weeds in the rehabilitated wetlands and riparian uplands): Cover of non-designate noxious weeds in the wetland and riparian uplands is qualitatively estimated at less than 10 percent. This is below the performance standard threshold. Species observed include reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea), Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense), paleyellow iris (Iris pseudacorus), and cutleaf blackberry (Rubus laciniatus). Results for Performance Standard 7 and 11 (Four native woody plants/100ft 2 in the upland buffer; 50% cover native woody species in the upland buffer): Density of native woody species in the upland buffer is qualitatively estimated at greater than four plants/100ft 2 (Photo 4). Cover of native woody species is estimated at 72% (CI80%= 64-79%). This exceeds the final-year performance standard target. Dominant species include Nootka rose (Rosa nutkana), snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus), Pacific ninebark (Physocarpus capitatus), and red alder. Photo 4 Woody cover in the upland buffer (August 2018) What is planned for this site? Weed control will continue in Results for Performance Standard 8 (Less than 25% cover King County non-designate noxious weeds in the upland buffer): Cover of non-designate noxious weeds in the upland buffer is qualitatively estimated at less than five percent. This is below the performance standard threshold. Species observed include Scotch broom, cutleaf blackberry, Himalayan blackberry, bull thistle, and Canada thistle. 520 Yarrow Creek Wetland Annual Monitoring Report
