Layer: Riparian Zones (ID: 5)

Name: Riparian Zones

Display Field: Hex_ID

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Wetland habitats were mapped using a 1 sq. mile hexagon and include data from managed wetland areas, playas, and NWI data.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Riparian areas were mapped as percent of natural land cover within each 1 sq. mile hexagon along Kansas streams of Strahler order greater than 2.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The Wetland and Riparian layers were ranked 1-6, lower scores representing higher conservation values. When the Wetland and Riparian layers were combined to create a single Wetland/Riparian layer, the minimum value between the two was used.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The Wetland and Riparian habitats data layer was created by KDWPT and the Kansas Biological Survey as part of the WGA CHAT project. All categories have been created at a macroscale and are intended to help users site projects around crucial biological habitats independent of the regulatory requirements of development. Users should consult KDWPT personnel for a more detailed local assessment.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The following is a description of the catagorical rules that define the 1-6 scores for Wetlands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1. Known wetland area* OR &gt;= 1 acre of Very High risk playas </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2. Total of &gt;= 32 acres of NWI OR 10 acres of High risk playas</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3. Total of &gt;= 10 acres of NWI OR 10 acres of Moderate risk playas</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4. Total of &gt;= 5 acres of NWI OR 5 acres of High or Moderate risk playas</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5. Total of &gt;= 2 acres of NWI OR 2 acres of Moderate of low risk playas</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>6.
