Geographic relationship to and hydrologic connection with wetlands, other surface water, uplands The Cypress wetland referred to on this form is located on the northeast portion of the project site. The Cypress wetlands are bordered by a gasoline station, disturbed shrub wetlands, and State Road (SR) 100 to the north; upland Pine Flatwoods and Interstate 95 (I-95) right-of-way (ROW) to the east; cypress wetlands and wetland coniferous forest to the south; and cypress wetlands to the west. Hydrology on the project site appears to begin in the north portion of the wetland system from a culvert under SR 100 where water flow appears to originate from the wetlands to the north and northeast. Hydrology has been affected by the wetlands being fragmented from transportation (SR 100 and I-95) that appears to cause some impoundment of water on the northeast of the site and more of a sheet flow in the central and southern portions of the project site. Water flows through the onsite wetlands to the south into a series of canal systems releasing into Graham Swamp and Bulow Creek. Assessment area description Cypress strand swamps (in optimal condition) are typically characterized by bald-cypress (Taxodium distichum) and situated in troughs in a flat limestone plain. These systems typically include a diversity of plant species such as red maple (Acer rubrum), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), red bay (Persea borbonia var. borbonia), strangler fig (Ficus aurea), common buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis), leather fern (Acrostichum sp.), Jamaica swamp sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense), waterhyssop (Bacopa sp.), and dotted smartweed (Polygonum punctatum). Young trees at the outer edge grade into old trees in the interior, giving the cypress strands a distinctly rounded cross-sectional profile. At the time of the field investigation, the assessment area was characterized by a moderately-closed canopy of cypress, with scattered occurrences of blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica var. sylvatica), pond pine (Pinus serotina), slash pine (Pinus elliottii), and dahoon (Ilex cassine). The subcanopy consisted of regeneration of cypress (Taxodium sp.), dahoon, and blackgum scattered with fetterbush (Lyonia lucida), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), swamp bay (Persea palustris), and cabbage palm. The groundcover is comprised of cinnamon fern (Osmunda cinnamomea), Virginia chain fern (Woodwardia virginica), royal fern (Osmunda regalis), and netted chain fern (Woodwardia areolata).

Significant nearby features Uniqueness (considering the relative rarity in relation to the regional landscape) No significant features nearby. This area contains no floral or faunal components considered to be rare or unique within Flagler County or in the central/north region of Florida.

Functions Mitigation for previous permit/other historic use Optimal functions of the site included a wetland strand corridor providing No. natural water storage, filtration, and flow. Listed species such as the Florida black bear (Ursus americanus floridanus), white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), several wading birds, and birds of prey would optimally utilize this type of area for cover, refuge, foraging, nesting, and food chain support.

Anticipated Wildlife Utilization Based on Literature Review (list of species that Anticipated Utilization by Listed Species (list species, their legal classification are representative of the assessment area and reasonably expected to be found) (E, T, SSC), type of use, and intensity of use of the assessment area) Wildlife anticipated for this assessment area typically includes eastern ribbon Low likelihood of occurrence for nesting and foraging of wading birds including snake (Thamnophis sauritus sauritus), cottonmouth (Agkistrodon piscivorus), little blue heron (Egretta caerulea), snowy egret (Egretta thula), white ibis Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana), eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus (Eudocimus albus), and tricolored heron (Egretta tricolor). Low likelihood of carolinensis), Florida black bear, raccoon (Procyon lotor), river otter (Lontra occurrence for cover and foraging of the Florida sandhill crane (Grus canadensis canadensis), and white-tailed deer. pratensis) and the southeastern American kestrel (Falco sparverius paulus). Low to moderate likelihood of occurrence for cover and foraging for the wood stork (Mycteria americana), eastern indigo snake (Drymarchon corais couperi), and Florida black bear.

Observed Evidence of Wildlife Utilization (list species directly observed, or other signs such as tracks, droppings, casings, nests, etc.) Observed wildlife included slimy salamander (Plethodon glutinosus) and red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus). Wildlife recognized by call or sign included fish crow (Corvus ossifragus), pine warbler (Dendroica pinus), downy woodpecker (Picoides pubescens), and white-tailed deer.

Geographic relationship to and hydrologic connection with wetlands, other surface water, uplands The Wetland Coniferous Forests referred to on this form is located on the northeast portion of the project site. The wetland coniferous forests are bordered by upland Pine Flatwoods to the north; Interstate 95 (I-95) right-of-way (ROW) to the east; and wetland coniferous forest to the south and west. Hydrology on the project site appears to begin in the north portion of the wetland system from a culvert under SR 100 where water flow appears to originate from the wetlands to the north and northeast. Hydrology appears to have been affected by the wetlands being fragmented from transportation (SR 100 and I-95) that appears to cause some impoundment of water on the northeast of the site and more of a sheet flow in the central and southern portions of the project site. The water flow in the assessment area appeared to flow more to the west of the assessment area and through the central onsite wetlands towards the south into a series of canal systems releasing into Graham Swamp and Bulow Creek. Assessment area description Wetland Coniferous Forests (in optimal condition) are generally characterized as vegetated with hydrophytic trees and shrubs that can withstand an extended hydroperiod. Dominant plants include bald-cypress (Taxodium distichum), slash pine (Pinus elliottii), and blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica var. sylvatica). Other typical plants include red maple (Acer rubrum), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), red bay (Persea borbonia var. borbonia), loblolly bay (Gordonia lasianthus), Virginia willow (Itea virginica), fetterbush (Lyonia lucida), laurel greenbrier (Smilax laurifolia), Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), titi (Cyrilla racemiflora), sphagnum (Sphagnum sp.), and common buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis). At the time of the field investigation, the assessment area was characterized by a moderately-closed canopy of bald-cypress (Taxodium distichum), slash pine (Pinus elliottii), and scattered occurrences of red maple (Acer rubrum). The subcanopy/shrub layer consisted of dahoon (Ilex cassine), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica var. sylvatica), swamp bay (Persea palustris), red maple, fetterbush (Lyonia lucida), cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto), saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), dahoon, sweet bay, titi (Cyrilla racemiflora), Virginia willow (Itea virginica), and wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera). The groundcover is comprised of cinnamon fern (Osmunda cinnamomea), Virginia chain fern (Woodwardia virginica), royal fern (Osmunda regalis), netted chain fern (Woodwardia areolata), swamp fern (Blechnum serrulatum), eastern poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), greenbrier (Smilax sp.), blackberry (Rubus sp.), and taperleaf waterhorehound (Lycopus rubellus).

Geographic relationship to and hydrologic connection with wetlands, other surface water, uplands The Pine Flatwoods (411) uplands are located along the perimeter of the wetland system on the project site, and buffer the wetlands from the surrounding development.

Assessment area description Optimally, this cover type is characterized as an open canopy forest of widely scattered pine trees with a sparse shrubby understory and numerous areas of barren white sand. The vegetation is a combination of scrub and mesic flatwoods species. Typical plants include species such as longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), slash pine (Pinus elliottii), sand live oak (Quercus geminata), Chapman’s oak (Quercus chapmanii), myrtle oak (Quercus myrtifolia), scrub oak (Quercus inopina), saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), staggerbush (Lyonia sp.), wiregrass (Aristida stricta), blueberry (Vaccinium sp.), gopher apple (Licania michauxii), rusty staggerbush (Lyonia ferruginea), tarflower (Bejaria racemosa), goldenaster (Chrysopsis sp.), silk bay (Persea borbonia var. humilis), garberia (Garberia heterophylla), huckleberry (Gaylussacia sp.), goldenrod (Solidago sp.), running oak (Quercus elliottii), pinweed (Lechea sp.), white crownbeard (Verbesina virginica) , and lichens. Currently, this cover type is characterized by a canopy dominated by loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and slash pine (Pinus elliottii), with occasional dahoon (Ilex cassine), red maple (Acer rubrum), scattered black cherry (Prunus serotina var. serotina), and red cedar (Juniperus virginiana). The subcanopy is dominated by dense saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), with occasional American beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), yaupon (Ilex vomitoria), and saplings of the canopy species including loblolly pine, slash pine, dahoon, and red maple. The herbaceous layer consists of scattered saw palmetto.
