KEY PROJECT
Wetland Delineation and Aquatic Habitat Inventory at Detachment Concord
To support the assessment of impact, permit processing and mitigation planning, Tierra Data delineated all jurisdictional and non-jurisdictional wetland and non-wetland waters of the U.S. on the Inland Area, a 5,204-acre property at Detachment Concord. In addition, a broad range of vernal pools and all aquatic habitat including seasonal pools were mapped, with incidental observation of rare plants and wildlife.
