Eng., Project Manager & Geo-environmental Engineer 40 Henri Dunant Street Moncton, NB E1E 1E5 Tel: 506-857-8889 [email protected] 1.5 Property Ownership The existing municipal wellfield which services the Village is comprised of four (4) production wells and located in an undeveloped wooded area approximately 2.5 km southeast of the Village. The wellfield and surrounding area are situated on Crown land which in the province of New Brunswick is managed/administered by the New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy Development (NBNRED). The existing wellfield and water treatment building are located on a 2.54 ha land parcel identified as PID 75416198. The latter land parcel is currently leased by the Village of McAdam from NBNRED under the terms and conditions of a municipal services lease agreement between the Village and NBNRED. In 2018, EXP Services Inc. (EXP) completed an Abbreviated Municipal Groundwater Supply Source Investigation for the Village wherein eight (8) target drilling locations for a new municipal groundwater supply source were identified in the general vicinity (i.e. within 1 km) of the existing wellfield (EXP, 2018). Each of these target drilling locations is situated on the large (approximately 34,000 ha) parcel of Crown land identified as PID 75096693. It is noted that the majority of the latter property, which surrounds the Village proper and the current municipal wellfield property, is comprised of undeveloped woodland. A relative ranking of each of the eight (8) target drilling locations identified in the 2018 groundwater supply source investigation was also completed in conjunction with this work. This ranking was based on a number of evaluation factors for each of the target drilling locations including but not limited to potential well yield and site access requirements. For the currently proposed wellfield expansion project, the Village intends to test and, if feasible, develop two new municipal production wells to obtain additional water supply capacity and provide operational redundancy. Therefore, the areal scope of the current Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) includes the general area between the existing wellfield and the three top-ranked target drilling locations identified in our 2018 report. The approximate dimensions of the above defined EIA Assessment Area are approximately 625 m x 750 m which 2020-August FRE-00259858-A0

This broad generic concept has been adopted in several recent taxonomic treatments, including the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group I. However, the infrageneric taxonomy of Deparia still needs further revision. In this study, we provide a new infrageneric classification with five sections and three subsections based on the phylogenetic evidence.

  • Mississippi Natural Heritage Program Special Plants - Tracking List -2018
    MISSISSIPPI NATURAL HERITAGE PROGRAM SPECIAL PLANTS - TRACKING LIST -2018- Approximately 3300 species of vascular plants (fern, gymnosperms, and angiosperms), and numerous non-vascular plants may be found in Mississippi. Many of these are quite common. Some, however, are known or suspected to occur in low numbers; these are designated as species of special concern, and are listed below. There are 495 special concern plants, which include 4 non- vascular plants, 28 ferns and fern allies, 4 gymnosperms, and 459 angiosperms 244 dicots and 215 monocots. An additional 100 species are designated “watch” status (see “Special Plants - Watch List”) with the potential of becoming species of special concern and include 2 fern and fern allies, 54 dicots and 44 monocots. This list is designated for the primary purposes of : 1) in environmental assessments, “flagging” of sensitive species that may be negatively affected by proposed actions; 2) determination of protection priorities of natural areas that contain such species; and 3) determination of priorities of inventory and protection for these plants, including the proposed listing of species for federal protection.

Box 420 Trenton, NJ 08625-0420 Prepared by: Rebekah Buczynski [email protected] August 21, 2019 This report should be cited as follows: Buczynski, Rebekah. 2019. Streptopus lanceolatus Rare Plant Profile. New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Parks and Forestry, New Jersey Forest Service, Office of Natural Lands Management, New Jersey Natural Heritage Program, Trenton, NJ. 15 pp. Streptopus lanceolatus Rare Plant Profile, Page 2 of 15 Introduction Rosy Twisted-stalk is a NJ state endangered plant whose name can arguably be attributed to either its zigzag stem (Peterson and McKenny 1968 and Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center 2019 [hereafter, "LBJWC"]) or perhaps more accurately the arching angle of the flowering stalks (LBJWC 2019; Minnesota Wildflowers 2019 [hereafter, "MNWF"]). The translation of the Latin genus Streptopus is literally "Twisted foot" (USDA U.S. Forest Service 2019). One of the common names, "Scootberry" possibly refers to the purgative effect of consuming too much of the fruit (Flowering Plants in Voyageur Country 2007). Another point of taxonomic contention with this species is that Streptopus lanceolatus may be divided into several subordinate taxa depending upon where it exists in its range (MNWF 2019) but for the purposes of this profile we will simply refer to all variations as Streptopus lanceolatus.

VASCULAR FLORA OF THE SHOAL CREEK PRESERVE FOREVER WILD TRACT, LAUDERDALE COUNTY, ALABAMA 1* 1 1 1 BRIAN D. HOLT , ASHLEY S. PETERS , CHRIS T. TAYLOR , AND T. WAYNE BARGER 1State Lands Division, Natural Heritage Section, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, 64 North Union Street Montgomery, Alabama 36130 *Correspondence : Brian D. Holt ([email protected]) ABSTRACT The Shoal Creek Preserve Forever Wild Tract (SCPFWT) is a 123 ha property acquired by Alabama’s Forever Wild Land Program on February 26, 2003. The SCPFWT lies 13 km north-northeast of Florence, Alabama, 46 km southeast of Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, and is bordered for a short distance on the east by Shoal Creek. The site is managed by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources for habitat conservation, outdoor recreation, and education. An intensive floristic study of this area was conducted from May 2009 through May 2011 and less frequently through June 2015. A total of 519 taxa from 346 genera and 121 families were collected, with 217 taxa representing county records. Asteraceae was the most collected family, with 69 species; Poaceae, Fabaceae, and Cyperaceae were the next largest families with 38, 29, and 17 species, respectively. Carex was the largest genus represented with 11 species. 71 non-native taxa were collected during the surveys. 42 percent of the total collections were county records and 37 exotic taxa collected during this survey were county records.
