Agenda 03/09/2021 Item #16A10 (Resolution awarding restoration credits in SSA 9)03/09/2021 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adopt a resolution awarding restoration (R-II) credits in Stewardship Sending Area 9 ("BCI / BCP SSA 9") within the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Overlay District (RLSA) for restoration activities completed by Barron Collier Investments, Ltd., and Barron Collier Partnership in accordance with the approved restoration plan. OBJECTIVE: To approve a resolution to the ninth Stewardship Sending Area (BCI / BCP SSA 9) in the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District (RLSA) and to award Restoration II credits to Barron Collier Investments, Ltd. (BCI) and Barron Collier Partnership (BCP). CONSIDERATIONS: The Stewardship Credit Program is the foundation of the RLSA. Collier County adopted the RLSA Overlay as the implementing regulation for the Growth Management Plan amendments known broadly as the "Rural/Eastem Lands Amendments," which were developed in response to Administration Commission Final Order No. AC 99-002, which required a "Rural and Agricultural Assessment." On February 13, 2007, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the ninth Stewardship Sending Area (SSA) known as `BCI / BCP SSA 9" and awarded 4,481 Stewardship Credits immediately and an additional 2,765.6 Stewardship Credits to be available for the Owner to use, sell, transfer, all or in part, upon successful completion of the restoration improvements as set forth in the Restoration Plan within Resolution 2007-36. This SSA is comprised of 789.4 acres within the Camp Keais Strand, which is a significant regional flow -way and wildlife corridor that connects Lake Trafford and Corkscrew Swamp at its northern extent to the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge to the south. Staff is requesting the Board award BCI and BCP 2,765.6 R-11 credits for restoration that has been completed in SSA 9. The combined acreage for the restoration areas is approximately 691.4 acres in size and both hydrologic and habitat improvements. In Restoration Areas A and B, hydrologic restoration improvements consisted of removing perimeter berms surrounding the farm fields to restore natural flow ways, as well as removing and controlling exotic and nuisance vegetation to less than 5% coverage, while maintaining 80% area coverage with native canopy, subcanopy and groundcover species. In Restoration Area C, activities included removal of perimeter berms and restoration of crop lands to a mix of native habitats, including marsh, wet prairies, cypress and pine flatwoods; creating littoral zones along the lake edge; and controlling and removing exotic and nuisance vegetation to less than 5% coverage to provide habitat for a variety of species, including the Florida Panther and foraging habitat for wood storks and other listed wading birds. The Camp Keais FSA benefits from the hydrologic improvements associated with these three restoration areas and the HSA contiguous to the FSA provides habitat for listed species and other wildlife. Staff conducted a site visit in May 2020 and observed the perimeter berms around the farm fields in Restoration Areas A and B had been removed, exotic vegetation had been removed and native plantings, including cypress trees and a variety of ground cover plantings, were installed and meeting the success criteria for survival. Within Restoration Area C, staff observed the perimeter berms were removed, crop lands had been restored to native habitats and littoral zones were created along the edge of the lake. Exotic vegetation had been removed from within the restoration area. The applicant began restoration work in 2009. Five years of monitoring reports were provided to the South Florida Water Management District and the Army Corps of Engineers, beginning in 2009, for SFWMD Environmental Resource Permit #11-01745-P and ACOE Permit #SAJ-2006-07018, respectively. Agency approval was obtained at the end of the five- year monitoring for 500 acres within SSA 9. An additional three years of monitoring was required by both agencies for a 29-acre area within the SSA for exotic infestation; final approval from both agencies was obtained at the end of the three-year monitoring period in December 2017. FISCAL IMPACT: There are no fiscal impacts associated with the application. Packet Pg. 497 03/09/2021 LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and it requires a majority vote for Board approval (HFAC). GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The Rural Lands Stewardship Area Overlay in the Future Land Use Element (FLUE) established the process and requirements for establishing SSAs, what lands qualify for SSA designation, and the process for obtaining Restoration credits. The Rural Lands Stewardship Area Overlay is implemented through the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District. The zoning overlay contains the same requirements and limitations as the FLUE Overlay. The restoration activities completed are consistent with the restoration plan submitted and approved with the original SSA designation. Therefore, staff s analysis indicates this resolution for restoration credits is compliant with the RLSA Zoning Overlay and is also consistent with the FLUE. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board adopt a resolution awarding Stewardship Sending Area 9 (BCI / BCP SSA 9) in the Rural Lands Stewardship Area Zoning Overlay District (RLSA) 2,765.6 restoration (R-11) credits for completing restoration activities within SSA 9.

The legal descriptions for these Restoration Areas can be found in Exhibit °E" of the SSA 9 Stewardship Credit Agreement and Exhibit "D" of the SSA 9 Stewardship Easement Agreement. a. Restoration Area A is approximately 42.2 acres in size and is within the Camp Keais Strand FSA as delineated on the RLSA Overlay Map. The restoration improvements will consist of hydrologic restoration improvements that will increase the width of the flow way and functionally enhance the flow way's natural hydrologic regime; and ecological restoration improvements that will control exotic vegetation to improve ecological functions, and plant native species to restore habitats. b. The hydrologic restoration improvements will consist of partially removing perimeter berms to the natural grade of adjacent lands within Restoration Area A (Parcel A of SSA 9 Credit Agreement Exhibit E), sufficient to re- establish the natural flow regime. Grantor will design the location, size, and number of berm alterations necessary to restore the natural flow regime, while minimizing impacts to native tree species on the existing berms. Big Cypress Basin shall determine if the Design is adequate to restore the natural flow regime. Once the Design is determined to be adequate, Grantor shall cause the restoration improvements to be made. The restoration improvements shall be completed within three (3) years of the approval of SSA 9 and/or receipt of the necessary environmental permits for restoration, whichever is later. C. The ecological restoration improvements within Restoration Area A shall consist of controlling exotic and nuisance vegetation (as currently defined by the Florida Exotic Plant Pest Council) to levels less than 5% area coverage; and utilizing natural recruitment and supplemental planting of native canopy, subcanopy, and groundcover species to achieve a minimum of 80% area coverage as depicted and described on Attachment 1. The restoration plan will employ adaptive management principles to adjust planting zones according to the existing natural grade and hydrology of Camp Keais Strand. The primary exotic and nuisance species, water primrose (Ludwigia peruviana) and West Indian marsh grass (Hymenachne amplexicaulis), will be controlled through a � ` EXHIBIT a Packet Pg. 504 16.A.10.c OR; 4197 PG; 171 combination of mechanical removal, directed herbicide applications, and controlled burning, d. The applicant will notify staff when success criteria have been achieved. Within 90 days of said notification, staff will confirm that the berms have been breached and/or leveled, consistent with the Design, and that ecological restoration improvements have met the minimum criteria listed above. Upon said confirmation by County Staff, success criteria shall be deemed to have been met, and the additional stewardship credits from Restoration Area A shall be available for transfer or utilization by Grantor e. The land management measures for Restoration Area A shall be to control exotics within the 42.2-acre field. f. Restoration Area B, an abandoned farm field surrounded by perimeter berms, is approximately 42.4 acres in size and is within the limits of the historic Camp Keais Strand flow way, but is not within the Camp Keais FSA. The restoration improvements will consist of: (1) hydrologic restoration improvements that will increase the width of the flow way and functionally enhance the flow way's natural hydrologic regime; (2) ecological restoration improvements that will control exotic vegetation to improve ecological functions; and (3) the supplemental planting of native species to restore habitats. Restoring the field to a natural flow regime within Camp Keais Strand will approximately double the width of the strand at that point. g. The hydrologic restoration improvements will consist of partially removing perimeter berms on the northern, western, and southern portions of the parcel to the natural grade of adjacent lands within Restoration Area B (Parcel B of SSA 9 Credit Agreement Exhibit E), sufficient to re-establish the natural flow regime. A new berm will be constructed along the eastern margin of the parcel to separate this restoration area from an agricultural Water Retention Area (WRA) as shown in Attachment 1. Grantor will design the location, size, and number of berm alterations necessary to restore the natural flow regime, while minimizing impacts to native tree species on the existing berms. Big Cypress Basin shall determine if the Design is adequate. Once the Design is determined to be adequate, Grantor shall cause the restoration improvements to be made. The restoration improvements shall be completed within three (3) years of the approval of SSA 9 and/or receipt of the necessary environmental permits for restoration, whichever is later. h. Ecological improvements within Restoration Area B shall consist of controlling exotic and nuisance vegetation (as currently defined by the Florida Exotic Plant Pest Council) to levels less than 5% area coverage; Packet Pg. 505 16.A.10.c OR; 4191 PG; 1 ,L, and utilizing natural recruitment and planting of native canopy, subcanop " and groundcover species to achieve a minimum of 80% area coverage as depicted and described on Attachment 1. The restoration plan will employ adaptive management principles to adjust planting zones according to the existing natural grade and hydrology of Camp Keais Strand. The primary exotic and nuisance species, Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifofius), torpedograss (Panicum repens), water primrose and West Indian marsh grass, will be controlled through a combination of mechanical removal, directed herbicide applications, and controlled burning. The applicant will notify staff when success criteria have been achieved. Within 90 days of said notification, staff will confirm that the berms have been breached and/or leveled, consistent with the Design, and that ecological restoration improvements have met the minimum criteria listed above. Upon said confirmation by County Staff, success criteria shall be deemed to have been met, and the additional stewardship credits from Restoration Area B shall be available for transfer or utilization by Grantor. j. The land management measures for Restoration Area B shall be to control exotics within the 42.4-acre field. k. Restoration Area C is approximately 119.9 acres and is within the Camp Keais Strand FSA and a HSA that is contiguous to the Camp Keais Strand FSA. The restoration improvements expand the habitat and widen the Camp Keais Strand wildlife corridor at a critical point for panther movement, just east of a proposed panther/wildlife crossing under Oil Well Road that will occur with the widening of Oil Well Road. The restoration improvements will restore row -crop lands to a matrix of native habitats that provide habitat and cover for the Florida panther and foraging opportunities for wood storks and other listed wading birds. The restoration improvements will consist of removing or partially removing the existing perimeter berms and ditches surrounding the restoration area; re -grading the farm fields to create marsh, wet prairie, cypress, and hydric pine flatwood communities; creating a marsh/littoral zone transition along the lake edge; and controlling exotics such as Brazilian pepper, torpedograss, etc. to less than 5% area coverage. The hydric pine flatwood community will be planted with a shrub understory to provide effective cover for panther movement. See Attachment 2 for Habitat Restoration Area plan. The restoration improvements shall be completed within three (3) years of the approval of SSA 9 and/or receipt of the necessary environmental permits for restoration, whichever is later. M. The applicant will notify staff when success criteria have been achieved. Within 90 days of said notification, staff will confirm that the berms have Packet Pg. 506 OR; 4197 PG: 1 16.A.1U.c 1 T� been breached and/or leveled, consistent with the Design, and that habitat restoration improvements have met the minimum criteria listed above. Upon said verification and confirmation, success criteria shall be deemed to have been met, and the additional Stewardship Credits from Restoration Area C shall be available for transfer or utilization by Grantor. n. The land management measure shall be the control of exotics and nuisance species, so that there is no more than 5% exotics or 10% nuisance species by area coverage in Restoration Area C. o. The estimated annual costs of the land management measures for Restoration Areas A, B, and C are $15,000. Owner shall procure, at its election, either a bond or letter of credit ("Surety") on an annual basis in favor of the Grantees in an amount equal to 120% of the annual costs of the land management measures. This obligation shall start 30 days after Grantor has received notice from the County that any Stewardship Credits from restoration improvements for SSA 9 restoration areas are available and have been authorized, and the obligation shall end 10 years after the start date, or at such date as a governmental entity or established conservation organization undertakes the land management measures. P. In the event Grantor fails to maintain any of the Restoration Areas according to the land management measures set forth herein, County shall have the right to draw upon the Surety after 60 days written notice to Grantor with a right to cure and a failure of Owner to undertake cure within said 60 days. The County shall only be permitted to use the drawn Surety funds for the maintenance of the Restoration Areas in accordance with the land management measures set forth herein. q. In the event the Grantor fails to annually provide the Surety and fails to maintain the Restoration Areas pursuant to the land management measures set forth herein, the Grantees, or either of them, may conduct such land management measures and lien the Restoration Areas for the cost of maintaining the Restoration Areas pursuant to the land management measures set forth herein. The County may pursue its rights against the Grantor under the Stewardship Easement for breach thereof or foreclose its lien on the Restoration Areas.

INTRODUCTION On March 12, 2009, the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) issued Individual Environmental Resource Permit # 11-01745-P for Oil Well Road. On May 21, 2009, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued Individual Environmental Resource Permit # SAJ- 2006-07018 (IP- hwb) for Oil Well Road. Oil Well Road (OWR) includes off -site (SFWMD and Corps requirements) wetland mitigation provided as compensation for the project's permitted impacts to jurisdictional wetlands. The schedule for mitigation activities is presented in Table 3. LI Mitigation consists of the 529.21 acre mitigation parcel in Camp Keias Strand. The mitigation L� area maintenance and management activities shall be the responsibility of Barron Collier, Ltd., and Amult, LLC or their designee. These areas shall not be altered from their natural or permitted state, except by the approved restoration activities. Special Condition # 25 of the SFWMD permit requires that the permittee implement a wetland - monitoring program. Details of the monitoring activities are described in Exhibits 3.4 -3.5 of the staff report. This report was prepared on behalf of the permittee: Collier County Board Of County Commissioners, AMULT, L.L.C., and Barron Collier Investments Ltd., pursuant to requirements of the SFWMD and Corps permits. It represents the Baseline Monitoring Report for the Oil Well Road mitigation program and is submitted to SFWMD and the Corps in general accordance with the permit conditions. Q2. METHODOLOGY The field monitoring activities for Oil Well Road monitoring report were performed on May 27 and May 28, 2009 by Bruce Layman and Stuart Miller of WilsonMiller's Ecological and Water Resources Department, D Six permanent monitoring transects of varying lengths were established in general conformance p 9 rY 9 9 D with the location and orientation specified in the SFWMD and Corps permits. Permanent monitoring transects, sampling quadrats and photo stations were established. Two sampling stations (20' by 20' quadrat) were established at the end of each transect. At each quadrat qualitative estimates of the percent cover (aerial extent) accounted for exotic and nuisance a plant species in the canopy, subcanopy and groundcover strata were recorded and tabled below. Subsequent data collected from all sampling quadrats over time may be compared to assess the progress and success of the mitigation program and exotic/nuisance vegetation H eradication and control efforts.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Table 2 provides the vegetation data collected from each 20' by 20' sampling quadrat along transects established within the preserves. The data includes an estimate of the percent aerial cover of exotic, nuisance and native plant species in each of the three vegetative strata (canopy, subcanopy, and groundcover). Wildlife species observed during the 2009 monitoring event are listed in Appendix B. Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius) and old world climbing fem (Lygodium microphyllum), were the dominant exotic vegetative species in the forested portions of the mitigation parcel. In the marsh areas the predominant exotic species present were primrose willow (Ludwigia peruviana and West Indian Marsh Grass (Hymenachne amplexicaulis). The most frequent nuisance vegetative species present in mitigation areas were Caesar -weed (Urena lobata) and climbing hempvine (Mikania scandens). Other nuisance species occurring in mitigation areas include cattail (Typha spp.), muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifolia), pepper -vine (Ampleopsis arborea), and dog fennel (Eupatodum capillifolium). Documentary photographs taken at the monitoring transect photo stations are provided in Appendix A of this report. The results of the exotic and nuisance plant eradication efforts will be provided in the Time Zero monitoring report.

Once the initial exotic vegetation eradication efforts are complete, restoration and enhancement areas will be maintained to avoid re -infestation by exotic and nuisance plant species. Periodic maintenance efforts will be employed to ensure that the preserved/enhanced areas remain free from exotic vegetation. Mitigation areas will be maintained free of exotics immediately following D maintenance efforts and exotic and nuisance species will constitute no more than 5% of total cover between maintenance efforts. 0 0 II' I U Table 2.

MITIGATION PLAN The enhancement activities within the Camp Keias Strand flow -way restoration area will consist of the removal or breaching the northeastern berm to the natural grade of adjacent Camp Keais Strand to re-establish the natural flow regime. If native plant recruitment does not achieve an 80% coverage within two years of the monitoring program, where breaching of the berm occurred, native species will be planted. i- Maintenance shall be conducted in perpetuity to ensure that the conservation area is maintained free from Category 1 exotic vegetation (as defined by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant k Council at the time of permit issuance) immediately following a maintenance activity. Coverage U of exotic and nuisance plant species shall not exceed 5% of total cover between maintenance activities. In addition, the permittee will be responsible for the long term maintenance of the rwildlife crossings and associated fencing. 6. ANTICIPATED FUTURE MONITORING AND MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE The following provides a brief outline of the anticipated maintenance and monitoring activities through 2015. The frequency of exotic and nuisance eradication efforts will depend upon the success of the maintenance program in regards to the resurgence of exotictnuisance species between treatments. a U I I I Lf 11 U 8f3 OM - 212547 - Ver. 2 • $Miller 0378"11.002 - - 0 Packet Pg. 515 16.A.10.d Oil Well Road Baseline Monitoring Report.

On May 21, 2009, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued Individual Permit # SAJ-20o6-07018 (IP- HWB) for Oil Well Road. Oil Well Road (OWR) includes off -site (SFWMD and Corps requirements) wetland mitigation provided as compensation for the project's permitted impacts to jurisdictional wetlands. The schedule for mitigation activities is presented in Table 4. Mitigation consists of the 529.21 acre mitigation parcel in Camp Keais Strand. The mitigation area maintenance and management activities shall be the responsibility of Barron Collier Investments, Ltd., and Amult, LLC or their designee. These areas shall not be altered from their natural or permitted state, except by the approved restoration activities. Special Condition #25 of the SFWMD permit requires that the permittee implement a wetland - monitoring program. Details of the monitoring activities are described in Exhibits 3.4 -3.5 of the staff report. This monitoring report was prepared on behalf of the permittee: Collier County Board of County Commissioners, AMULT, L.L.C., and Barron Collier Investments Ltd., pursuant to requirements of the SFWMD and Corps permits. It represents the Fifth Annual Monitoring Report for the Oil Well Road mitigation program and it is submitted to SFWMD and the Corps in general accordance with the permit conditions. 2.0 METHODOLOGY The field monitoring activities for Oil Well Road Fifth Annual monitoring report were performed on September 26, 2014 by Bruce Layman of Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. Six permanent monitoring transects of varying lengths, quadrats, and photo stations, were established, as part of the Baseline Monitoring activities, in general conformance with the location and orientation specified in the SFWMD and Corps permits. Two sampling stations (20' by 20' quadrat) were established at the end of each transect. At each quadrat, estimates of the percent cover (aerial extent) accounted for exotic, nuisance, or native plant species in the canopy, subcanopy and groundcover strata were recorded. Results are illustrated below. Data collected over time may be compared to assess the progress and success of the mitigation program. The enclosed exhibits depict the project location and the approximate location of the monitoring transects, quadrats, photo stations, and electronic groundwater monitoring piezometers.

The data includes an estimate of the percent aerial cover of exotic, nuisance and native plant species in each of the three vegetative strata (canopy, subcanopy, and groundcover). Nuisance vegetation averaged o% cover, and exotic vegetation averaged 2% cover, across the 12 quadrats during the Fifth Annual monitoring effort. Both fall within permitted thresholds. The 2% cover of exotic vegetation was represented in a single quadrat located in a flag pond at the western end of Transect #1. Based upon conversation of the exotic vegetation eradication contractor, water depth (3' depth at the time of monitoring) hindered effective treatment of the West -Indian marsh grass in this area. It is scheduled to be treated, completely, over the upcoming dry season when the water level recedes. Native wetland vegetation represented 45% cover within the 30-acre natural-revegetation zone (reflected by Transect 6, Quadrat 2), falling short of the minimum 80% cover requirement. Exotic vegetation in this marsh has been problematic in this area over time. The comingling of desirable and undesirable species has resulted in incomplete control of the exotic species and non -target mortality of desirable species. In order to both bring the exotic vegetation under control and to meet the target 8o% coverage of desirable wetland vegetation, the permittee has initiated an effort to eradicate the undesirable species via herbicide treatment, followed by prescribed fire to remove the dead biomass and seed bank, followed by herbicidal treatment of resprouting exotic species, followed by supplemental planting of desirable herbaceous groundcover. As accounted for during original permitting, the groundcover will be selected from Table 1 on sheet 2 of 8 of Exhibit 3.4 of the SFWMD staff report. Documentary photographs are provided in Appendix B of this report. A cumulative list of wildlife species observed during the monitoring events is included as Appendix A.

Well JE-1166, was installed along Transect #1, and the other, well JE-1165, was installed along Transect #5. The data collected by these instruments was graphically illustrated through October 2011 in prior monitoring reports. The malfunction of both piezometers between October 2011 and Fall of 2012 resulted in the lack of data for that period. As discussed in the Methodology section of this report, both piezometers were re -installed in the vicinity of the piezometers that malfunctioned. The hydrographs included in Appendix C reflect water table elevations through September 2014. As reflected in both graphs, the water table typically exceeds the soil surface by approximately one foot during the peak wet season, and it recedes to 3 to 4 feet below grade in the peak dry season. There are no SFWMD or Corps success criteria associated with the hydrologic monitoring. 5.0 MITIGATION PLAN Initial exotic vegetation eradication effort is complete. The preserve has been managed to avoid re - infestation by exotic and nuisance plant species. With the exception of the 3o-acre Natural Re -vegetation Zone, discussed below, the preserve has been successful in this effort. Periodic maintenance will continue to control exotic vegetation within the preserve. In accordance with permit conditions, the preserve will be maintained free of Category 1 exotic vegetation (as defined by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council at the time of permit issuance) immediately following maintenance efforts and exotic and nuisance species will constitute no more than 5% of total cover between maintenance efforts. 6.0 ANTICIPATED FUTURE MONITORING AND MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE The native plant cover within the 3o acres of Natural Re -vegetation Zone was observed to be 45 % during the Fifth Annual monitoring event. This is lower than the 8o% cover required for mitigation success and is the result of the comingling of desirable and undesirable vegetation and non -target damage during herbicide treatments. The permittee has initiated a plan to treat the exotic vegetation, execute a controlled burn to reduce the debris, retreat undesirable resprouts, and supplementally replant desirable wetland herbaceous species to establish a marsh wetland as originally intended during permitting. Herbicidal treatment is on -going and will culminate when the water table recedes below the ground surface. Prescribed fire is intended to be used, as allowed by atmospheric conditions, in the spring of 2015, followed by the treatment of resprouting undesirable species and supplemental planting prior to the on -set of the 2015 wet season. Given the presence of suitable hydrology and soils, it is anticipated that 8o% cover will be met by the combination of natural recruitment and supplemental planting prior to the 2015/2ol6 dry season. ® Stantec v:\2155\active\215500020\-project_default_non-shared\env\05_rpt-deliv\deliverables\rpt_oil_well_road_fifth_ annual_monitoring_report.docx 15 Packet Pg. 548 16.A.10.e OIL WELL ROAD 529 ACRE MITIGATION PARCEL FIFTH ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT The following table provides an outline of the maintenance and monitoring activities completed over the 5-year monitoring effort.

Introduction On March 12, 2009, the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) issued Individual Environmental Resource Permit # 11-01745-P for Oil Well Road. On May 21, 2009, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued Individual Environmental Resource Permit # SAJ-2006-07018 (IP-HWB) for Oil Well Road. Oil Well Road (OWR) included 529 acres of off -site (SFWMD and Corps requirements) wetland mitigation as compensation for the project's permitted impacts to jurisdictional wetlands. The mitigation consisted of a 529-acre mitigation parcel in Camp Keais Strand. The mitigation area maintenance and management activities were the responsibility of Barron Collier, Ltd., and Amult, LLC or their designee. In accordance with permit requirements, the mitigation area was monitored annually for 5 years to track mitigation success. Late in the monitoring program, a 29-acre area in the northeast quadrant of the mitigation area experienced infestation of exotic grasses that resulted in that area not meeting success by the end of the 5-year monitoring period. The core 500 acres of the mitigation area met success and the 500 acres were released from further monitoring by both SFWMD and the Corps. However, both agencies required that a remediation plan be implemented for the 29-acre area in order for it to meet its original target. A remediation plan was developed in coordination with both SFWMD and the Corps. The SFWMD approved the plan as a modification to the work schedule on March 27, 2015 and the Corps approved the same plan verbally in March, in writing on October 26, and will formally document it as a permit modification as time permits. The plan included supplemental planting of herbaceous wetland vegetation to augment the on -going natural recruitment of wetland vegetation. Additionally, a small number of bald cypress trees were planted to diversify the marsh and accelerate the natural succession of the community. Monitoring included Time Zero and three annual monitoring reports. This monitoring report was prepared on behalf of the permittee: Collier County Board of County Commissioners, AMULT, L.L.C., and Barron Collier Investments Ltd., pursuant to requirements of the SFWMD and Corps approvals. It represents the Third Annual Monitoring Report for the Oil Well Road 29-Acre Mitigation Area. 2. Methodology The Third Annual field monitoring activities were performed on December 26, 2017 by Peninsula Engineering Ecologist, Bruce Layman. Five permanent monitoring transects, approximately 150' in length, were established, as part of the Time Zero Monitoring activities, in conformance with the location and orientation specified in the SFWMD and Corps approvals. One sampling station (20' by 20' quadrat) was established at each end of each transect, to document the percent cover (aerial extent) of exotic, nuisance, or native plant species in the canopy, sub - canopy and groundcover strata through time. Results are illustrated in tabular form, below, and in Appendix 1. Permanent photo stations were established at a single corner of each quadrat and the orientation of the photograph was along the centerline of transect toward the opposite quadrat. Documentary photographs are included in Appendix 3. 16.A.10.f L:\CES\Projects\Oil Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 569 Collier Environmental Services Lake A Wetland Management Specialists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT Additionally, a cumulative list of the wildlife species observed during all monitoring events is shown in Appendix 2. 3. Results and Discussion Results of the monitoring effort indicate that the mitigation area has met its success criteria (i.e., <5% coverage of nuisance and exotic vegetation, >80% survivorship and coverage of desirable wetland vegetation, and >80% planted cypress survivorship). Prior to the monitoring effort, the mitigation area was managed specifically to eradicate nuisance and exotic species to a level where their control in the future would not conflict with the survivorship and coverage goals of desirable wetland vegetation. The absence of nuisance and exotic vegetation and the combined coverage of planted and naturally -recruited wetland groundcover, suggests that management has been successful.

During the First Annual monitoring effort, 29 of the trees remained (i.e., 100% survivorship). During the Second Annual monitoring effort, 24 of the trees remained (i.e., 83% survivorship). During the Third Annual monitoring effort, 26 living cypress trees remained (i.e., 90% survivorship). As noted in the Second Annual Monitoring 16.A.10.f L:\CE5\Projects\0il Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 571 Collier Environmental Services Lake SMktland Management Specialists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT Report, due to the absence of observed dead trees, it may have been possible that more living planted cypress trees may have existed than were observed during that monitoring event. The observation of 26 trees in the current monitoring effort supports that possibility. As such, the increase in survivorship appears to be the result of existing planted cypress being obscured by the tall marsh vegetation (remaining uncounted) during the Second Annual monitoring event. 4. Anticipated Future Monitoring and Maintenance Schedule In order to control infestation by exotic and nuisance vegetation, maintenance events are anticipated to occur at a frequency that will be contingent upon field conditions. They will continue to ensure that mitigation areas will be maintained free of exotics (as defined by the 2015 Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council list) immediately following maintenance efforts and exotic and nuisance species will constitute no more than 5% of total cover between vegetative maintenance efforts. No further monitoring reports are proposed. 16.A.10.f L:\CES\Projects\Oil Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 572 Collier 16.A.10.f Environmental Services Lake A Wetland Management Specialists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT Exhibit 1 General Location Map L:\CES\Projects\Oil Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 573 Collier MA Environmental Services take & V*tland Management Sp-lalists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT r. 29 Acre C1 Mitigation Boundary ® Stantec v Abw° Oil Well Rood 29-Acre Area Location Map 16.A.10.f L:\CE5\Projects\0il Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 574 Collier 16.A.10.f MA Environmental Services takc & V*tland Management Sp-lalists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT Exhibit 2 Transect, Quadrat, and Photo Station Locations L:\CE5\Projects\0il Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 575 Collier Environmental Services Lake a %Wtland Management Spedalists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT 641 N2 Acres Q2 irarvsecil A 1 VVV Q2 �1.89 ansed 64159 Ac A ,ee 6 A—, QZran 12 Q2 12 Q� A0 9 ir... —t 4 199 Ac es Q2 Acre Q� 62483 66b64 Acres 411 64 Acres 6'41N 624E-'3 `J Ob8 41 -r`j Acres stet 6Ac' V 61 BN2 6k/41 N3 11 Acre' Acres F W CCS oE—IITION PCRES 29 Acre 2g Lbba e°eldm 163 6]bb3 1— Cam -willow with 24-09% nuisanm attai l miuetl with emticwdter r 142 rq MItIC�C]tlOrl Hares 21 E1 c r wah la4ie:mi�eramoan e 3Bs.19 21 E2 C r w2F49%exotic Brazilran e 1 Boundary 24E1 B Pine car abbedh e elm with ID24%ewfic a7ilian .Pp 253T 1547 24E2 Pine-c r gab bee elm with 21 491 exotic Bravllan a 189 26E3 Plne-c ress sabba e elm with 50-15% emtic Bazillan e 7U FI I� C 621 E2 30E1 Mixed welh nd ha rdwootlswi1h10.2G%exotic Brazilian e 871 LU CS21.31 30E2 M-dwelhnd hardwooHth 25-50%exotic Brazilian e 2009 Aces 31 Wetland scrub 1.19 419 ExoOcwater rimrose 29A] Transects & a1N2 Ersshwatsrmarsnwnh24-49%nuisance catho ml.ad with sami�wahr rl 291 41 N3 Reshwater marsh with5075%nuisance-n,l mixed with exoticwater ri 1520 Photo Stations Aarea 41N4 FH1Eh 2tarHErs Enh 271% n�lsanea —n lmh:adwlm—FtLtar r aas roTn2 sz921 '621E1-Cypressd pphas been deft ned pp having 1-241exotic Bazillan Q� Quadrats 1024 ferdk Br —lb, p�r,nses ae nppnsedmae ennneminnel deanamn of 10.24%exotic Bazillan e Oil Well Road 121 t�:�e�es�16 201fi Stdllt@C wccsand rl 2015cts Map ­�ae February 16.A.10.f L:\CES\Projects\Oil Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 576 Collier 16.A.10.f Environmental Services Lake A Wetland Management Specialists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT Appendix 1 Vegetation Data L:\CE5\Projects\0il Well Road Mitigation\Third Annual Monitoring Report Packet Pg. 577 Collier Environmental Services Lake SMktland Management Specialists OIL WELL ROAD 29-ACRE MITIGATION AREA THIRD ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT TRANSECT 1, QUADRAT 1— PERCENT COVER SPECIES Common Name N/A N/A Alligator flag Common arrowhead Marsh pennywort Soft rush Sand cordgrass Leatherfern Day flower Spikerush Percent Percent Percent Percent Cover Cover Cover Scientific Name Stratum Cover First Second Third Time Zero Annual Annual Annual Canopy Total -
