5 1.0 Introduction Vernal Pool and Amphibian Breeding Habitat Report Greater Springfield Reliability Project Massachusetts Component This report provides a summary of vernal pool investigations conducted along the Massachusetts portions of the proposed Greater Springfield Reliability Project (GSRP). The GSRP consists of a new proposed 345-kilovolt (kv) electric transmission line and associated improvements to existing 115-kV lines, as well as electric substation modifications. Most of these proposed facilities are located along existing transmission line rights-of-way (ROWs). The GSRP is proposed by the Western Massachusetts Electric Company ( WMECO ) and the Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P), which are owned and operated by Northeast Utilities Service Company ( NUSCO ). The project, whose purpose is to ensure continued reliable electric power in southern New England, would extend between WMECO s Ludlow Substation in Ludlow, Massachusetts and CL&P s North Bloomfield Substation in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Additional electric transmission facility activities are associated with the proposed Project, including improvements to existing 115-kV transmission lines, and the expansion and construction of switching and/or substations. Both preferred and alternative routes have been identified for the GSRP facilities. In Massachusetts, the Preferred ( Northern ) GSRP route will traverse the municipalities of Agawam, West Springfield, Springfield, Chicopee and Ludlow along existing transmission ROWs where overhead 115-kV transmission lines currently exist. In accordance with Energy Facilities Siting Board (EFSB) requirements, WMECO evaluated an alternative route, known as the Noticed-Alternative ( Southern ) Route. The Massachusetts portion of the Noticed- Alternative Route would commence and terminate at the same locations in Massachusetts as the Preferred Route. However, the Noticed-Alternative Route would occupy an existing transmission ROW through the municipalities of Agawam, Longmeadow, East Longmeadow, Hampden, Wilbraham, and Ludlow. On behalf of WMECO, ENSR conducted vernal pool surveys along the Preferred and Noticed- Alternative Routes. These field investigations were conducted in the spring of This report discusses the field methods used to identify vernal pools and summarizes the findings of the surveys. 3
6 Vernal Pool and Amphibian Breeding Habitat Report Greater Springfield Reliability Project Massachusetts Component 2.0 Vernal Pool Determination and Identification Methods The Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (310 CMR 10.00) defines vernal pool habitat as confined basin depressions, which, at least in most years, hold water for a minimum of two continuous months during the spring and/or summer, and which are free of adult fish populations. These areas are essential breeding habitat, and provide other extremely important wildlife habitat functions during the non-breeding season as well, for a variety of amphibian species such as wood frogs (Rana sylvatica) and the spotted salamander (Ambystoma maculatum,) and are important habitat for other wildlife species. Many amphibian species critically rely upon vernal pool habitat for reproductive success, and these species are referred to as obligate vernal pool species. Designated obligate vernal pool species include: Wood Frog (Rana sylvatica) Eastern Spadefoot Toad (Sacphiopus holbrookii holbrookii) Spotted Salamander (Ambystoma maculatum) Jefferson Salamander (Ambystoma jeffersonianum) Marbled Salamander (Ambystoma opacum) Fairy Shrimp (Branchiopoda anostraca) Facultative vernal pool species utilize, but do not necessarily require, vernal pools for reproductive success. Examples of facultative species include the spring peeper (Pseudacris crucifer), spotted turtle (Clemmys guttata), and red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens viridescens). All wetland areas associated with the Massachusetts GSRP ROWs were studied to identify the presence or absence of obligate vernal pool species. Special attention was given to those areas that had been identified by the Massachusetts Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP) as being Certified or Potential Vernal Pools. Observed facultative species were noted on the Vernal Pool Data Forms (See Appendix B) but these species were not used to determine whether or not the area was a vernal pool. The publication A Field Guide to the Animals of Vernal Pools (Kenney and Burne, 2000) was referenced throughout the field surveys to aid in the identification of egg masses, frogs, tadpoles, salamanders, snakes, turtles and invertebrates including fairy shrimp (Branchiopoda anostraca), fingernail clams (Mollusca bivalvis) and caddisfly (Order Trichoptera) larvae. ENSR conducted the vernal pool/amphibian breeding habitat surveys in March and April of The surveys were conducted during the optimum time to identify areas that function as vernal pools and/or amphibian breeding habitat, which is after the first significant rain events in the spring, when evening low temperatures remain in the 40s ( o Fahrenheit). Biologists conducted visual surveys and used dip nets to sweep the water column to determine the presence or absence of vernal pool species. Choruses of breeding frogs were also noted for each wetland. WMECO corresponded with the NHESP in 2007 to determine if any mapped habitat for state listed rare amphibian species was associated with the Project ROWs. NHESP indicated that at least two rare salamander species associated with vernal pools were known to occur within the GSRP area and directed WMECO to conduct quantitative field surveys through live trapping for these species. Such surveys were performed during March and April of As a result of these surveys, no species of concern were identified along the Preferred Route, but the 4
7 Vernal Pool and Amphibian Breeding Habitat Report Greater Springfield Reliability Project Massachusetts Component presence of such species was confirmed in certain wetlands associated with the Noticed- Alternative Route. The findings of these surveys have been sent directly to the MA NHESP under separate cover to protect the sensitivity of the confirmed rare species habitats. 3.0 Results As illustrated in Table 1, 38 wetlands in the Massachusetts GSRP study area were determined to function as vernal pools during the 2008 breeding season. The dominant obligate and facultative media identified throughout the surveys included wood frog eggs, spotted salamanders, spring peepers and caddis fly larvae. Twenty of the 38 vernal pools are characterized by a mixed vegetation cover type, with the majority of the wetlands exhibiting complete or partial scrub-shrub cover type, as is typical of most periodically maintained ROWs. Table 2 lists the vernal pools by municipality, and Table 3 identifies which vernal pools are associated with the Preferred Route versus the Noticed-Alternative Route. Appendix A provides a project map sheet index depicting the location of vernal pools; Appendix B includes the vernal pool field data sheets; and Appendix C provides representative site photographs of vernal pools. 4.0 Conclusion The Noticed-Alternative Route of the GSRP encompasses more than twice as many vernal pools as the Preferred Route (27 versus 13). The town with the greatest number of vernal pools is Wilbraham (13), which is on the Noticed-Alternative Route, and the municipality with the fewest is Springfield (0), which is along the Preferred Route. The town along the Preferred Route with the most vernal pools is Ludlow (9). 5.0 References Cowardin, L.M., V. Carter, F.C. Golet, and E.T.
