WAC 173-700-400. Monitoring plan

(1) The goals of monitoring bank sites are to: (a) Document the postconstruction baseline conditions at the site; (b) Document the condition of the site as it develops over time; (c) Document the attainment of performance standards; and (d) Provide early identification of problems in the site's development that would trigger potential adaptive management activities. (2) The sponsor must develop a monitoring plan for each bank site and include it in the instrument. The monitoring plan must include, but is not limited to: (a) A description of the variables that will be monitored, a description of the methods or protocols used to monitor those variables, and how they will be evaluated; (b) The monitoring protocols must be sufficient to provide an accurate representation of site conditions; (c) A schedule of monitoring including the time of year, frequency, and duration; and (d) A description of proposed photo documentation of the site.
