The USC Riparian Buffer Establishment Program kicked off June 6th with the Buffer Steward Training. The 6 stewards (pictured below) brushed up on understanding riparian area benefits, diversity, field safety, how to evaluate the riparian area, and riparian plant ID. This crew will be scattered throughout the watershed evaluating and establishing riparian forest buffers. Through this program the USC plans to evaluate over 600 acres of riparian forest buffer and perform establishment activities on 200 acres! Funding for this program was awarded by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation.
