Ohio Revised Code Title LXI. Water Supply Sanitation Ditches § 6111.314

(a) The status of all mitigation required for the project;

(b) Current contact information for all responsible parties including phone numbers, electronic mail addresses, and mailing addresses;

(c) Clear identification of the specific monitoring period the report is intended to represent, as well as the calendar year the monitoring occurred;

(d) A summary of current mitigation status comparing the monitoring information from the prior year with the current report;

(e) A list of native seed mixes planted in all mitigation areas;

(f) For the first year's report, plan views, longitudinal profiles, and cross sections of the as-built mitigation area including the location of native seed mixes in plan views;

(g) A physical integrity assessment for each ephemeral feature that is a water of the state on the project site consisting of measurements of streambed width, incision (bank height) ratio measured as the lowest bank height divided by the maximum bankfull depth, substrate composition, and riparian composition on each side of the stream with the riparian area being measured as two times the streambed width divided equally on both sides of the stream. (For example, for an ephemeral feature that is a water of the state with a streambed width of two feet, then two feet on each side of the feature.)

(h) At least three high resolution color photographs taken for each mitigation feature, including one facing upstream, one facing downstream, and a closeup that clearly depicts the substrate composition and size for each ephemeral feature that is a water of the state proposed for impact. Photographs shall accurately depict the quality of the feature and shall not include excessive cover that would prevent the observation of substrates, such as leaf litter, snow, or ice.
