Little Blackwater River - Ecotone completed the design to meet the short deadline in spring of 2008, including coordination with DNR, DSCD and the site engineer for an adjacent residential development to ensure that the proposed restored swamp runs would facilitate storm flows from proposed residential stormwater facilities. Construction of the first seven swamp runs was also completed within the short required time frame for completion, and all restoration grading was completed in November 2008. Ecotone worked closely with the project sponsors to make any required field changes and coordinate construction activities to reduce interference with ongoing crop farming on the site. During construction, Ecotone assisted DNR in installing a continuous water monitoring station along one of the swamp runs. Planting area layout, construction management, and as-built survey services were also completed by Ecotone.
Long Green Run Wetland Restoration - Ecotone, Inc. completed all phases of wetland restoration including site selection, easement acquisition, groundwater and soils analysis, grading, sediment control and planting design, Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Baltimore County Department of Environmental Protection and Resource Management (DEPRM) permitting, construction, and post construction monitoring and maintenance in restoring and enhancing nearly 28 acres of wetlands in the upper reaches of Long Green Creek. Despite prolonged drought conditions through much of the first 1-2 years following construction, the restored wetlands have exhibited positive wetland functions, with 44 predominantly volunteer wetland species documented in the downstream site and 49 predominantly volunteer wetland species documented in the upstream site in the first year after construction.
		Broad Creek Wetland Restoration - The project was designed, permitted, constructed, and planted during the period between November 2004 and May 2005. The landowner was compensated in return for recording a conservation easment on the restored wetland and reforestation acreage. The project resulted in the restoration of 6 acres of forested wetland, and the establishment of 4 acres of upland reforestation. The restored wetlands have proven to persistent, robust hydrology and provide significant habitat for a variety of wildlife, including breeding areas for numerous amphibian species.
Little Bennett Creek - The project was designed, permitted, constructed, and planted during the period between November 1998 and November 1999. The landowner was compensated in return for recording a conservation easment on the restored wetland and stream acreage. The project resulted in the restoration of 1,196 linear feet of first-order Use III trout stream, the creation of 3.98 acres of forested wetland, and the restoration/enhancement of 0.48 acre of degraded existing wetland. Fencing and other agricultural BMPs, including a hardened ford crossing of the stream for cattle and equipment, were installed to allow continued agricultural uses of surrounding areas while protecting the restored resources.
		Rose Bay Wetland Restoration - The project was designed, permitted, constructed, and planted during the period between May 2006 and May 2007. The project resulted in the restoration of 36 acres of riverine and non-riverine forested wetlands; effectively providing a full delivery project on extremely tight deadlines. The restored wetlands have proven to persistent, robust hydrology and provide significant habitat for a variety of wildlife, including breeding areas for numerous amphibian species. The end result of the project provided a significant financial return for the landowner on marginally productive farmland, provides vital wetland restoration and wildlife habitat, and increased water quality in an impaired watershed.
Cooper Swamp - The project was designed, permitted, constructed, and planted during the period between March 2006 and April 2007. The project resulted in the restoration of 40 acres of riverine wetlands which have proven to persistent, robust hydrology and provide significant habitat for a variety of wildlife, including breeding areas for numerous amphibian species. The end result of the project provided a significant financial return for the landowner on marginally productive farmland, vital wetland restoration and wildlife habitat, and increased water quality to an impaired watershed.
		Clark Mill Swamp Restoration - The project was designed, permitted, constructed, and planted during the period between February 2007 and January 2008. The project resulted in the restoration of 20 acres of riparian forested wetlands and 2,200 linear feet of headwater stream restoration. The restored swamp run and wetlands have proven to persistent, robust hydrology and provide significant habitat for a variety of wildlife, including breeding areas for numerous amphibian species. The end result of the project provided a significant financial return for the landowner on marginally productive farmland, provides vital swamp run and wetland restoration and wildlife habitat, and restored over 2,000 linear feet of impaired stream.
