HYDROLOGIC
1. Floodplain is inundated in "relatively frequent" events (1-3 years).
2. Active/stable beaver dams are present.
3. Sinuosity, width/depth ratio, and gradient are in balance with the landscape setting (i.e., landform, geology, and bioclimatic region).
4. Riparian zone is widening or has achieved potential extent.
5. Upland watershed not contributing to riparian degradation.
VEGETATIVE
6. Diverse age-class dstnbubon (recruitment for maintenance/recovery).
7. Diverse composition of vegetation (for maintenance/recovery).
8. Species present indicate maintenance of riparian soil moisture characteristics.
9. Streambank vegetation is comprised of those plants or plant communities that have root masses capable of withstanding high streamflow events.
10. Riparian plants exhibit high vigor.
11. Adequate vegetative cover present to protect banks and dissipate energy during high flows.
12. Plant communities in the riparian area are an adequate source of course and/or large woody debris.
EROSION DEPOSITION
13. Floodplain and channel characteristics (i.e., rocks, overflow channels, course and/or large woody debris) adequate to dissipate energy.
14. Point bars are revegetating.
15. Lateral stream movement is associated with natural sinuosity.
16. System is vertically stable.
17. Stream is in balance with water and sediment being supplied by the watershed (i.e., no excessive erosion or deposition).
