Team- work was critical because individuals from many different federal and state agencies collaborated on this project over its two-and-a-half-year duration. We would especially like to recognize the members of the technical staff who braved rivers, analyzed endless reports, and endured weekly meetings. Our sincerest thanks go to Daren Harmel and Scott Stoodley, both from Oklahoma State University, and John Mueller from the Natural Resources Conservation Service. We also owe a debt of gratitude to the members of the technical review group, who have given of their time and expertise and have helped write a great deal of this hand- book: • Reggie Blackwell, U.S. Forest Service - Black Kettle National Grasslands • Terry Bidwell, Oklahoma State University • Mark Derichsweiler, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality • Bruce Hoagland, Oklahoma Biological Survey and the University of Oklahoma • Julianne Hoagland, Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation • Derrill Putman, Bureau of Indian Affairs (formerly of the Oklahoma Conserva- tion Commission) • Phil Moershel, Oklahoma Conservation Commission • Mark Moseley, Natural Resources Conservation Service • John Norris, Oklahoma Department of Agriculture - Forestry Services Division • Sylvia Ritzky, U.S. EPA, Dallas (formerly Office of the Secretary of Environment) • Robert Miller, Oklahoma Department of Agriculture - Forestry Services Division (retired) The composition of the technical review group has changed over time, so we would also like to extend thanks to the many other individuals who have contributed. This project was supported in part by a grant from EPA Region 6 under Section 104 (b) (3) FY 1994 (Wetlands Program Task 200). State support was provided by the Oklahoma State University Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, Oklahoma Conservation Commission, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Biological Survey, Office of the Sec- retary of Environment, Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Oklahoma Depart- ment of Wildlife Conservation, and the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. Anna Fallon, Project Manager, Extension Engineer/Environmental Scientist Oklahoma State University Michael Smolen, Project Director, Coordinator, Water Quality Programs Oklahoma State University July 1998 .............................................................................................. 103v Foreword The riparian management project is a joint effort of the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service and the Oklahoma Conservation Commission. The project began in 1994 with the grant “Management Program for Riparian Areas to Protect Water Quality” from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Wetlands Program. The project had three levels of activity: a technical staff, an advisory committee, and a technical review group. The technical staff, composed of faculty, students, and staff from Oklahoma State University and a professional from the Natural Resources Con- servation Service, was responsible for day-to-day research and report preparation. Input from commodity and interest groups was solicited through the advisory com- mittee. The technical review group consisted of professionals from state and federal environ- mental agencies, including the Oklahoma Biological Survey, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oklahoma Depart- ment of Wildlife Conservation, Oklahoma Department of Agriculture - Forestry Services, Office of the Secretary of Environment, the USDA Natural Resources Con- servation Service, and the U.S. Forest Service. The technical review group helped prepare materials and reviewed documents for technical content. Project Goals Project goals and objectives were to: • Establish technical guidelines for riparian protection and management measures; • Develop a working partnership of federal and state agencies, landowners, producer groups, and environmental groups; • Provide a basis for public education and understanding of the role of riparian areas in protecting water quality; and • Recommend policy options for state riparian programs. Purpose of This Handbook This handbook provides a resource of riparian-related information to the general public and technical staffs in counties and conservation districts. The handbook begins with background

This reference site represents wetlands that border the Little River stream system in McCurtain County. This wetland landform is characterized by long and narrow depressions in broad flood plains and whose origin can be traced to abandoned stream channels. Surface water accumulation is from out-of-bank flooding and/or runoff from adjacent areas. Sediment loading is limited to large flood events. Groundwater tables are 1 to 3 feet above the surface during the winter and early spring. These wetlands range in size from 2 to 80 acres. Vegetative Community. Vegetation is dominated by an overstory of bald cypress. Understory vegetation is limited to the margins of the ponded water and consists of Hercules club, blue beech and buttonbush. In the ponded water, the sites are dominated by stinkweed and bladderworts. When disturbed by 66 drainage or filling, these sites convert to water primrose, smartweed, frog fruit and lizard’s tail. Tree trunks are buttressed and root systems are fluted. Hydrology. The water in these wetlands are provided by frequent floods of long duration and/or groundwater.
