The property is located fully within the buffer zones to salt marsh and coastal bank. • Total invasive species, native plant restoration, and beach grass restoration equals 3,300 square feet. • This plan proposes invasive species management in 794 square feet, focusing on the area directly adjacent to the salt marsh, where the majority of invasive plant species are identified. • Native plant restoration is proposed where there is existing lawn in order to create a more robust and beneficial vegetated buffer strip to the salt marsh. This area encompasses approximately 966 square feet. • Native plant restoration is additionally proposed throughout the property where there is rugosa rose and/or non-native vegetation. These areas include the space above and adjacent to the septic, and the patch of rugosa rose along the road to the east of the house. This area is approximately 1,168 square feet. • 17.5 cubic yards of sand will be added along the stone revetment to enhance sand accumulation in this area and support establishment of American beach grass. Approximately 400 bareroot beachgrass plugs shall be planted in 725 square feet. • The flat area above the septic leach field shall be enhanced for aesthetic and functional value. A small, circular shell sitting area is proposed in the center. The perimeter of the containment wall shall have a three-foot wide native flower bed, and a small picket fence will be installed on top of the wall for safety. • Invasive vegetation on site includes Asiatic bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculatus), black swallowwort (Vincetoxicum nigrum), and common reed (Phragmites australis). • Invasive plants will be selectively treated with an EPA-approved systemic herbicide and removed by hand. No soil disturbance shall occur, as all management practices shall be carried out without the use of machinery. • Native vegetation on site includes bayberry (Myrica pensylvanica), beach plum (Prunus maritima), hightide bush (Baccharis hamilfolia), salt marsh grass (Spartina patens), seaside goldenrod (Solidago sempervirens), Pennsylvania sedge (Carex pensylvanica), and American beachgrass (Ammophilia breviligulata). Non-native, aggressive rugosa rose (Rosa rugosa) is also found throughout the site. • All existing native vegetation will remain. After the invasive removal, native plants will be assessed for health, and any that have been heavily damaged by invasive vines may be regeneratively pruned to promote healthy regeneration and vigorous growth. • After invasive species removal, all bare soil will be seeded with a native grass and wildflower mix (see right). • The restoration areas will be planted with 46 native shrubs, as well as native grasses (see Plant Schedule for details). • Landscaped areas include foundation and front yard plantings, and the area to the northeast on top of and beside the elevated septic leach area. All plants proposed are native, with the exception of two species, which are non-native but non-invasive, drought tolerant, and low maintenance. • All vegetation debris will be removed from the site and brought to an off-site disposal area. • Temporary irrigation will be required for the first two to three growing seasons while plants establish. Drip irrigation to be used on all shrubs, grasses, and perennials. Once plants are established irrigation will be removed. • Follow up invasive species management will be ongoing over the next three growing seasons to ensure proper management and successful restoration.
