  • Botanical Through Recreation
    REVISED STUDY PLAN 11. BOTANICAL 11.1. Introduction The botanical resources section describes the studies proposed to collect necessary baseline data to evaluate the potential impacts to vegetation, wildlife habitat, wetland, and vascular-plant resources in the Project area. Five proposed study plans are presented in this section. Two of these studies will involve the mapping of vegetation, wildlife habitats, and wetlands in the upper and middle Susitna basin where the Project dam, reservoir, supporting infrastructure, transmission lines, and access road are proposed to be built. A third study involves the mapping of successional vegetation, wildlife habitats, and wetlands in riparian areas along the Susitna River downstream of the proposed dam site, and also will involve modeling efforts to predict the potential changes in downstream riparian areas from Project development. A fourth study will involve surveys for rare vascular plant populations in those portions of the Project area where fill, inundation of the reservoir, or disturbance to plant populations would occur, and a fifth study will involve surveys for invasive vascular plants in currently disturbed areas that could serve as source areas for the spread of invasive plants in the Project area. 11.2. Nexus Between Project Construction / Existence / Operations and Effects on Resources to be Studied Project construction and operations activities would directly and indirectly affect vegetation, wildlife habitats, and wetlands in and adjacent to those areas where physical alteration of the landscape would occur (the site of the proposed dam, the reservoir, and in those areas where supporting infrastructure, the access road, and transmission-lines are proposed). Project development also could indirectly affect vegetation, wildlife habitats, and wetlands in riparian areas downstream of the proposed dam because of alterations in patterns of river flow, sediment transport, ice scour, and subsequent changes in riverine geomorphology.

  • A Comprehensive Inventory of Impaired Anadromous Fish Habitats in the Matanuska-Susitna Basin, with Recommendations for Restoration, 2013 Prepared By
    A Comprehensive Inventory of Impaired Anadromous Fish Habitats in the Matanuska-Susitna Basin, with Recommendations for Restoration, 2013 Prepared by ADF&G Habitat Research and Restoration Staff – October 2013 Primary contact: Dean W. Hughes (907) 267-2207 Abstract This document was written to identify the factors or activities that are likely to negatively impact the production of salmonids in the Matanuska-Susitna (Mat-Su) basin and to offer mitigation measures to lessen those impacts. Potential impacts can be characterized in two different catagories; natural and anthropogenic. Natural threats to salmon habitat in the Mat-Su basin include natural loss or alteration of wetland and riparian habitats, alteration of water quality and quantity, and beaver dams blocking fish migration. Anthropogenic impacts include urbanization that increases loss or alteration of wetlands and riparian habitats and decreases water quantity and quality; culverts that block or impair fish passage; ATV impacts to spawning habitats, stream channels, wetlands and riparian habitats; “coffee can” introduction of pike in salmon waters; and, beaver dams at or in culverts. What resulted is an amalgamation of existing research and expertise delivered in a brief narrative describing those limiting factors and activities, as well as an appendix listing possible studies to better understand those impacts and potential projects to limit or repair damage to important salmon habitats (Appendix A). Introduction The Matanuska-Susitna (Mat-Su) Basin is drained primarily by two major rivers, the Matanuska and Susitna. The Susitna River watershed encompasses 19,300 square miles, flowing over 300 miles from the Susitna Glacier in the Alaska Range, through the Talkeetna Mountains, to upper Cook Inlet.

The licensing is being conducted using the Integrated Licensing Process (ILP). The proposed Project would be located on the Susitna River, an approximately 300-mile-long river in the Southcentral region of Alaska. The Project’s dam site will be located at River Mile (RM) 184. The results of this study and of other proposed studies will provide information needed to support FERC’s National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis for the Project license.
