Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site 2014 Wetland Study

The objective of this investigation was to respond to a request for regional assistance for a comprehensive delineation of wetland habitats subject to jurisdiction under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and all wetlands subject to National Park Service (NPS) procedures for implementing Director’s Order #77–1: Wetland Protection within the floodplain of Blow-Me-Down-Creek upstream and within the immediate area surrounding Blow-Me-Down-Dam on Saint Gaudens National Historic Site (SAGA) lands. This work utilized the U.S Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Interim Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Northeast and Northcentral Region (January 2012) as the primary methodology for making wetland determinations in the field. A total of 3 palustrine wetlands encompassing 7.23 acres of land were identified and delineated from 22 -25 September 2014 within the study area (Fig. 1). Observed wetland habitats were primarily a combination of palustrine, emergent, persistent, habitats (PEM1) and scrub-shrub (PSS) habitats that exhibited extensive soil saturation at the time of the investigation. All of the identified and mapped palustrine wetland systems meet both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers criteria and the Cowardin et al. (1979) definitions of wetland habitat. No new riverine wetland systems were identified and mapped over the course of this investigation.

Hydrographic and Impairment Statistics Database: SAHI

Hydrographic and Impairment Statistics (HIS) is a National Park Service (NPS) Water Resources Division (WRD) project established to track certain goals created in response to the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA). One water resources management goal established by the Department of the Interior under GRPA requires NPS to track the percent of its managed surface waters that are meeting Clean Water Act (CWA) water quality standards. This goal requires an accurate inventory that spatially quantifies the surface water hydrography that each bureau manages and a procedure to determine and track which waterbodies are or are not meeting water quality standards as outlined by Section 303(d) of the CWA. This project helps meet this DOI GRPA goal by inventorying and monitoring in a geographic information system for the NPS: (1) CWA 303(d) quality impaired waters and causes; and (2) hydrographic statistics based on the United States Geological Survey (USGS) National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). Hydrographic and 303(d) impairment statistics were evaluated based on a combination of 1:24,000 (NHD) and finer scale data (frequently provided by state GIS layers).

Freshwater Mussel Survey of Abrams Creek in Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Blount County, TN

documented the presence of 5 freshwater mussel species in the lower reach of Abrams Creek. No state or federally-protected species were observed. Densities were generally low; however, the presence of juvenile mussels indicate that reproduction is occurring in the stream. The low overall densities are likely the result of limited habitat within the stream. The substrate of the surveyed reach of Abrams Creek is dominated by bedrock, boulder, and large cobble. These substrates are generally too course to support high densities of freshwater mussels. Small habitat patches that were dominated by sand, small gravel, and silt were observed to contain the highest densities of freshwater mussels.

EAARL Coastal Topography–Gateway National Recreation Area, New Jersey and New York, 2009

A digital elevation map (also known as a Digital Elevation Model, or DEM) of a portion of the Gateway National Recreation Area in New Jersey and New York was produced from remotely sensed, geographically referenced elevation measurements cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Park Service (NPS), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Elevation measurements were collected over the area using the NASA Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL), a pulsed laser ranging system mounted onboard an aircraft to measure ground elevation, vegetation canopy, and coastal topography. The system uses high-frequency laser beams directed at the Earth's surface through an opening in the bottom of the aircraft's fuselage. The laser system records the time difference between emission of the laser beam and the reception of the reflected laser signal in the aircraft. The plane travels over the target area at approximately 50 meters per second at an elevation of approximately 300 meters. The EAARL, developed by NASA at Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia, measures ground elevation with a vertical resolution of +/-15 centimeters. A sampling rate of 3 kilohertz or higher results in an extremely dense spatial elevation dataset. Over 100 kilometers of coastline can be surveyed easily within a 3- to 4-hour mission. When subsequent elevation maps for an area are analyzed, they provide a useful tool to make management decisions regarding land development.

1998 LiDAR survey of Fire Island National Seashore

Bare-earth GRID elevation data derived from a LIDAR.

Grid elevation data derived from a LIDAR survey of Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS).  LIDAR is a form of laser beach mapping which uses a pulsed laser ranging system mounted onboard an aircraft to take high density ground elevation measurements.  This data is collected by NASA and sent to USGS for conversion to GeoTiff image files.  It is then sent to NPS where it is converted into a grid for use in an ArcGIS software environment with elevation in each cell recorded in meters.
