Future Needs. It is anticipated that within the timeframe of this Contract, OCWR will create an on-site ephemeral drainage project supporting both native riparian and upland species. This project will include at a minimum, 25,215 linear feet and 1.93 acres of drainages, broken down into 1.63 ac/22,756 linear feet of non-riparian, and 0.30 ac/2,459 linear feet of riparian. Once established, the Contractor will be responsible for providing maintenance of the drainages for the term of the Contract. Contractor will be expected to maintain non- native species to not exceed 50 percent ground cover for 2 years after installation, and less than or equal to 80 percent coverage within the drainages thereafter. Contractor will maintain the site to achieve 20 percent or greater absolute cover of native species. Contractor will also be responsible for maintaining sufficient erosion control of the project area. If environmental conditions such as drought occur, supplemental irrigation in the form of a water truck and hosing may be required during the first two years of the project to ensure establishment. Additional native habitat maintenance areas or needs may be identified in the future.
