               This document was funded in part through the
               Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amend-
               ed (Coastal Energy Impact Program), provided
               by the U. S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, through
               the Ohio Department of Energy.

                                 I NTRODUCTI ON

       The Coastal Energy Impact Program (CEIP), created by a 1976 amendment to

    Section 308 of the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, is a federally

    funded program designed to assist coastal states and units of local government

    in mitigation of on-shore effects of new or expanding coastal energy activity.

    The Ohio Department of Energy has responsibility for development, implementa-

    tion, and administration of Section 308 CEIP within the State of Ohio.

        On July 1, 1979, the Ohio CEIP provided a Planning Grant of $22,294 in

    federal funds to the Division of Natural Areas and Preserves (DNAP). Planning

    grants are awarded on an 80% federal/20% non-federal funding basis. These

    grants may be used to defray costs of study and planning for economic, environ-

    mental, or social impacts occurring or likely to occur in the coastal zone as

    a result of the siting, construction, expansion, or operation of new (since

    July 26, 1976) or expanded energy facilities.

        Planning Grant Contract Number 79-16 funded a biological inventory of the

    coastal zone in Lucas, Wood, Ottawa, Sandusky, Erie, Lake and Ashtabula counties

    to determine locations of significant plant species, plant communities and nat-

    ural areas which are threatened due to new or expanding energy facilities or

    activities. The DNAP will use this information to develop programs and strate-

    gies for the protection of the most significant natural features so identified.

    Information gathered through this project also is available to concerned enti-

    ties through the Division's~ natural heritage data services program. This

    additional data may now be used for environmental assessment and to determine

    locations for energy activities and facilities which will minimize adverse

    impacts to these significant environmental resources.

        As originally proposed, the field survey portion of this project would

    have been initiated on June 18, 1979. Although spring and early summer plant

    species would be missed, this was the earliest possible date on which the CEIP

    staff felt that formal project approval could be given. Due to difficulties

    encountered in acquiring formal state and federal approval, DNAP was not

    authorized to initiate the project until August 6, 1979. Thus this project

    is a two rather than three season survey of the Lake Erie coastal zone. Addi-

    tional research in the spring is necessary to complete an inventory of the

    rare plants and significant plant communities of the coastal zone.

        The project consisted of three parts. First, existing information was

    collected and evaluated. This information included herbarium specimens and

    records, existing heritage program data, and pertinent written reports. In

    the second part of the project, heritage program staff, assisted by three

    temporary employees, conducted field surveys in all the coastal zone counties

    excluding Cuyahoga and Lorain, which were not included in the study because

    of funding limitations. In the third part of the project, this data was pro-

    cessed and evaluated by employees of the DNAP central office. Regular ONAP

    staff coordinated the project, evaluated the resulting data, and prepared the

    final report.

        This final report is intended to provide information concerning the inven-

    tory methodology, data availability and general protection strategy. This

    report does not provide details about rare plant occurrences, relative quality

    or location of the most significant plant communities or natural areas,

    or Division strategy for future preservation efforts of specific sites. Accu-

    rate, detailed information can be provided to legitimate data- users through the

    Natural Heritage Program, data services. This system will provide the user

    with the most current information available.

                            DATA COLLECTION SYSTEM

        Data on endangered species and significant natural plant commnunities in

    the Lake Erie coastal zone were obtained from all major available sources to

    the level of detail allowed by funding and time limitations of the contract.

    Data sources included herbarium specimens, literature records, knowledgeable

    individuals, and original field work. These data were organized by the data

    processing systems of the Natural Heritage Program within the Ohio Department

    of Natural Resources, Division of Natural Areas and Preserves.

        Most of the preexisting endangered species data pertaining to the Lake

    Erie coastal zone had been obtained by the Natural Heritage Program prior to

    work on the CEIP contract. These data were refined, updated and reorganized

    to assist field survey efforts on the project and to make the data more useful

    to the Division. Attempts then were made to validate these records in the

    field.

        Most of the new or improved data obtained by the Division of Natural Areas

    and Preserves was a result of the efforts of the field botanists. Mr. David

    Brandenburq worked full time on the western basin (Lucas to Erie counties)

    from the approved starting date of the project until August 24. Mr. Robert

    Bartolotta, workinq part-time on the project from the startinq date until Octo-

    ber 19, concentrated his efforts on Ashtabul a County, with some work in Lake

    County. Ms. Laura Hood, working full-time on the project from the starting

    date until October 19, concentrated her efforts on Lake County in August, and

    on the western basin in September and October. These people were assisted

    by Mr. Allison Cusick, field botanist coordinator, and by Mr. John Marshall

    of the Natural Heritage Program staff.

                                      3

        Confronted with the formidable task of surveying as much of the coastal

    zone as possible, the field botanists concentrated on areas where previous

    records, literature and personal leads, probable habitats, and intuition

    directed then. Their primary goal was the location of endangered plant species,

    with possibly significant plant community stands being recorded when encount-

    ered. Specimens of State proposed endangered, threatened, and potentially

    threatened species were obtained when populations were large enough to warrant

    collection. Specimens were deposited primarily at the herbarium of The Ohio

    State University, with duplicates, when collected, usually being deposited

    at Kent State University and/or tliami University. Sight records (versus col-

    lection records) were made for very small populations and for populations of

    species already represented by adequate collections in given areas.

        All endangered species occurrence data were organized by the Natural Heri-

    tage Program data processing system. Each record was checked for completeness

    and accuracy of information, and then mapped and entered into computer stor-

    age. Such storage will allow easy access to, alteration of, and addition to

    the data contained on the Lake Erie coastal zone.

                                       4

                               SURVEY RESULTS

       The Lake Erie coastal zone contains numerous locations of state endangered

    and threatened plants, as well as many significant plant communities and nat-

    ural areas. Previous data collection efforts in the coastal zone have been

    extensive when compared to efforts in other parts of the state, yet there are

    a number of areas which have not been adequately surveyed. This project pro-

    vided an opportunity for the Division of Natural Areas and Preserves to verify

    older data and to improve upon vague or inaccurate information.

        Many previously known locations of rare plants were surveyed and verified

    as a result of this project. Older records were updated, improved and recon-

    firmed. New locations for rare plants were discovered and better population

    data was obtained on known sites. It is not possible to give exact statistics

    on the number of new rare plant occurrences identified as a result of this

    project because it is not always possible to determine whether an old vague

    record is being updated and improved, or whether a previously unreported occur-

    rence has been discovered.

        Research efforts in the coastal zone as a result of the CEIP contract

    resulted in 161 new and/or improved records of rare plant occurrences being

    added to the Natural Heritage Program data base, which now contains approxi-

    mately 4,600 rare plant occurrences. An estimated 40% of these new records

    could be considered as previously undocumented occurrences because they do

    not occur in close proximity to documented occurrences.

        A list of the rare plants of Ohio is attached as Appendix B of this report.

    Of the 565 species listed as endangered, threatened, or potentially threatened,

    an estimated 210 occur or could potentially occur in the Lake Erie coastal

    zone. It is not possible at this time to provide an authoritative list of

    the rare plants of the coastal zone. With additional field survey work in

    the spring and further data analysis, it should be possible to develop such

    a list in early 1981.

        Many of the rare plants of the coastal zone will be proposed for official

    state endangered and threatened status in 1980. This list of rare species

    can be used as a tool for conducting environmental assessments and reviewing

    environmental impact statements for proposed projects in the coastal zone.

        The 161 records from the CEIP research represent data on 39 plant species.

    Ashtabula County had the highest number of new plant occurrences (52) and the

    most species (23). No new information was collected from Sandusky or Wood

    counties. The field botanist made brief stops in Lorain and Cuyahoga counties

                                        6

    while travelling between the eastern and western counties. These surveys

    provided five plant occurrences.

        Thirteen of the 39 plant species are represented by only one new occur-

    rence. Ten plants are represented by two occurrences. One plant, Cakile

    edentula var. lacustris, was represented by 33 occurrences. Upon further

    study, it may be removed from the potentially threatened list because of the

    new data provided by the CEIP project. Three of the 39 species will be pro-

    posed for state endangered status and 18 will be proposed for threatened

    status. The 18 remaining species are currently listed as potentially threat-

    e ned.

        It is important to note that these data only represent the new and/or

    improved records of plant occurrences. The Natural Heritage Program has a

    great deal of information from the coastal zone which should be taken into

    consideration when planning for energy facilities or other types of develop-

    ment in the Lake Erie coastal zone.

                           FEDERALLY LISTED SPECIES

       Ohio is known to have or have had 20 plant species listed by the U.S.

    Fish and Wildlife Service in the Federal Register as official, proposed or

    petitioned endangered or threatened species. Although some of these species

    have been "delisted" as a result of their having been listed in a proposed

    status past the maximum allowable 2-year period, this in itself does not

    decrease their biological status as possible national endangered or threaten-

    ed species. Such species may be reproposed as Federal endangered or threat-

    ened species in due time.

        The 20 Ohio species are:

             Aconitum noveboracense - Threatened
             Asplenium ebenoides - Petitioned threatened
             Asplenium kentuckiense - Petitioned threatened
             Calamagrostis insperata - Petitioned endangered
             Cypripedium candidum - Petitioned threatened
             Yuhlenbergia curtisetosa - Petitioned threatened
             Panax quinquefolius - Petitioned endangered or threatened
             Plantago cordata - Delisted
             Platanthera flava - Petitioned threatened
             Platanthera leucophaea - Petitioned threatened
             Platanthera peramoena - Petitioned threatened
             Poa paludigena - Petitioned threatened
             Polemonium reptans var. villosum - Petitioned threatened
             Polygonum pensylvanicum var. eglandulosum - Delisted
             Potamogeton hillii - Petitioned threatened
             Rhus trilobata var. arenaria - Petitioned threatened
             Sullivantia sullivantii - Petitioned threatened
             Synandra hispidula - Petitioned threatened
             Trollus laxus - Petitioned endangered
             Veratrum woodii - Petitioned endangered

        Additionally, Apios priceana, Oxypolis canbyi and Solidago shortii were

    all erroneously listed for Ohio in the Federal Register.

        In addition to the species listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

    as possibly endangered or threatened on a national level, the Ohio Department

    of Natural Resources is developing a list of plant species known to be endan-

    gered or threatened in the state. This list is attached as Appendix B, and

    the Ohio endangered plant law is attached as Appendix C.

       At least two of the federally listed species presently occur in the

    coastal zone. Polygonum pensylvanicum var. eglandulosum (pinkweed) occurs

    as an endemic on the Lake Erie Islands and on the mainland of Ottawa and

    Erie counties. Panax quinquefolius occurs in Lake County.

        Potamogeton hillii and Rhus trilobata var. arenaria previously occurred

    on or near the Lake Erie shores in Ashtabula County, but neither has been found

    there in recent years. A population of Cypripedium candidum currently exists

    in Ottawa County near the coastal zone and populations of Platanthera flava

    exist in Ashtabula and Lucas counties, though not in the coastal zone. C.

    candidum previously existed in Lucas County; P. flava in Cuyahoga, Erie, Lake,

    and Lorain counties; Platanthera leucophaea in Erie County; and Plantago

    cordata in Erie, Lorain, and Lucas counties.

                            SITE-SPECIFIC SURVEYS

       The Coastal Energy Impact Program, staff requested that the Division pay

    particular attention to five specific areas in the coastal zone (see Appendix

    A, Letter from Ms. Jacqueline F. Bird Dated July 3, 1979).

       These five areas were visited by Division staff on one or more occasions

    throughout the project. The following comments can be made regarding these

    sites-

        1. SANDUSKY BAY AREA

        This refers to the proposed Ohio Power Comapny facility in Riley and

    Townsend townships of Sandusky County. Upon completion of land acquisition,

    the site would encompass approximately 3,890 acres. Access was gained to most,

    but not all, of this area on several occasions. The area directly west of

    Bay View may have significant spring flora and should be visited earlier in

    the growing season. No rare plant species or significant plant communities

    were encountered by project staff. Most of the area is highly developed

    agricultural land and holds little potential for significant plant habitat.

    The wetlands remaining in the area also have undergone substantial modifica-

    tion.

        2. CONNEAUT

        This site is the Pittsburgh and Conneaut Dock Company coal dock facility

    adjacent to the steel mill in the city of Conneaut. No rare plants were found

                                       10

    in this area on September 12 and it is unlikely that any would be found at

    an earlier time of year because of the development and stream channelization

    in the area.

        3. ASHTABULA/LAKE SHORE PARK

        This area is approximately one mile east of the Ashtabula River mouth in

    Ashtabula County. This area was surveyed on September 19 with no rare plants

    or significant plant communities identified. The area has been significantly

    impacted by development, including a rock reinforced beach and landscaped

    grounds. It holds little potential for significant natural features.

        4. BERLIN HEIGHTS/ERIE SITE

        This is the proposed site for the Ohio Edison Company's Erie Nuclear

    Power Plant Units I and 2. The only known Ohio occurrence of Coeloglossum

    viride (long bracted orchid) is within the southern portion of the 2,600 foot

    radius exclusion area boundary. This plant will be proposed for state endan-

    gered status in early 1980. the location of the species does not appear to

    be within the planned construction zone so that the level of protection for

    this species may increase rather than decrease with the proposed development.

    In any event, this is a very significant plant occurrence which warrants pro-

    tection.   Consideration also should be given to the impact of the planned

    facility on the Old Woman Creek National Estuarine Sanctuary.

        5. KELLEYS ISLAND

        No specific site has been selected for any type of energy facility, but

                                      11

    some consideration is being given to the siting of a wind-powered electric

    generating facility on the island. There are numerous rare plant occur-

    rences on the north shore of the island, as well as in and near the limestone

    quarries in the interior of the island. Exact locations and species lists

    can be compiled for use by concerned entities through heritage program data

    services.

                          MANAGEMENT CONS IDERATI ONS

        All of the proposed endangered, threatened and potentially threatened

    plant species occurring in the coastal zone are significant elements of

    Ohio's natural heritage and should be protected whenever possible. If pri-

    orities must be set, the greatest protection efforts should be extended to

    those species whose population levels are critically low or in greatest

    danger of destruction.

        It is impossible in this stage of the art to list sophisticated manage-

    ment techniques appropriate for each endangered or threatened species found

    in the coastal zone. Such will require detailed observations and experimental

    studies of each species' needs and limitations for soil types, water quality

    and quantities, microclimate conditions and extremes, effects of associated

    species, pollinators, critical population sizes for outcrossing, and other

    important factors. Nevertheless, much, if not most, protection may be

    afforded by simply using common sense.

        One generality which usually applies is that a species will be protected

    best by maintaining those habitat conditions in which it currently thrives,

    or at least survives. This, of course, assumes that the species is also

    protected from destructive humans. The habitat conditions in which a species

    thrives, however, are not always apparent. Hence, we have no good alternative

    but to attempt to maintain those conditions in which we think a population

    is thriving, until we know otherwise.

                                     13

                              PROTECTION STRATEGY

       Although research efforts concentrated on rare plant species, significant

    plant communities and natural areas also were identified and evaluated. No

    1newi areas of statewide significance were discovered as a result of this study,
    but information was collected which has aided the Division of Natural Areas

    and Preserves in the evaluation of coastal zone plant communities and natural

    areas. Many, if not most, of the best areas already have some level of pro-

    tection provided to them by a variety of entities. Significant areas are

    currently protected by several divisions of the Ohio Department of Natural

    Resources, by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, by local government, and by

    private organizations such as the hunting clubs of the Sandusky Bay area.

    Yet there are several areas in the coastal zone which require additional or

    increased protection efforts. The Division will concentrate preservation

    efforts on the most significant areas in greatest need of additional protec-

    tion.

        The Division of Natural Areas and Preserves will provide some protection

    to rare species in the coastal zone by implementing Ohio Revised Code Chapter

    1518 (endangered plant law) and by making information available through heri-

    tage program data services. This process will provide information to devel-

    opers, consultants, local governments and others at a level of detail which

    has never before been available. In addition, the DNAP will contact the

    owners and/or managers of significant areas to inform them of the value of

    the natural features on their property. Where possible, the DNAP will assist

    landowners in the development of management plans designed to protect these

    natural features. The DNAP will work with the owners of the most significant

    areas in an attempt to provide the greatest level of protection possible to

                                      14

    these areas. The attitude and interests of the landowner are, of course, of

    paramount importance in the actions taken by the Division.

        Seven areas have been identified by the Division for future landowner

    contacts. Two of these areas are managed by state government, one by local

    government, three by corporations and one by private landowners. Four of

    the areas are in Ottawa County, and one each in Ashtabula, Erie, and Lake

    counties. The DNAP believes it is essential that the landowner be the first

    to hear of the Division's concern for the natural features on their property.

    Protection efforts generally are more successful if the landowner is provided

    an accurate description of the Division's interest from the Division rather

    than from a third party.

        Natural area protection can take several forms, all of which have differ-

    ent costs and benefits for both the landowner and the Division. Usually

    some protection is provided by merely notifying the landowner of the natural

    value of property and encouraging its preservation. This, at least, prevents

    the unintentional destruction of valuable natural lands. The Division can

    work with landowners to develop management plans which are both compatible

    with natural feature preservation and limited use by the landowner. Conser-

    vation easements can provide some protection while allowing the landowner to

    maintain certain rights and privileges of ownership. There are also substan-

    tial tax advantages to the landowner who agrees to protect the natural value

    of the property on a long term basis. Dedication as a state nature preserve

    under the Ohio Natural Areas Law provides the best possible protection for

    a natural area in Ohio.

        The preservation technique selected by the landowner should be determined

    on a case-by-case basis after exploring all alternatives. Additional infor-

    mation and technical assistance can be obtained from. the Division.

                            SUNMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

        The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Natural Areas and

    Preserves, by means of a planning grant from the Ohio Department of Energy,

    Coastal Energy Impact Program, conducted a two season survey of endangered,

    threatened, and potentially threatened plant species; significant plant commun-

    ities; and natural areas in the Lake Erie coastal zone in 1979. Data were

    obtained from existing sources and from field surveys.

        One hundred and sixty-one records of rare plant species were identified

    as a result of the field surveys. Additional information was collected on

    the realtive quality of plant communities and natural areas in the coastal

    zone. Several areas were identified as requiring greater protection than is

    currently afforded. Five specific sites of concern to the Coastal Energy

    Impact Program were surveyed and evaluated.

        Information collected via the Coastal Energy Impact Program planning

    grant has assisted the Division in the development of the proposed endanger-

    ment status for plants under Ohio Revised Code Chapter 1518 (Endangered Plant

    Law). Additional field work, especially in the spring, will be necessary to

    gain a more accurate understanding of the relative rarity of certain plant

    species.

        Data collected during this summer will be made available to concerned

    entities through the Natural Heritage Program data services system.

        The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Natural Areas and

    Preserves, commends the Ohio Department of Energy, Coastal Energy Impact

    Program, for its concern for endangered plant species, plant communities and

    natural areas in the coastal zone.

         Dear Mr. McCance:

              This letter is to confirm our recent telephone conversation
         regarding CEIP Contract No. 79-16. At that time you requested a
         list of specific areas to be studied. They are: Sandusky Bay area,
         Conneaut, Ashtabula/Lake Shore Park area, Berlin Heights/Erie site,
         and Kelleys Island. (The first three .areas should be given a higher
         priority than the last two areas.)

              A-95 and Controlling Board approval have been given to this
         contract, and we expect federal approval very soon. When we re-
         cieve it, we will contact you immediately so that work may begin
         on the project.

                                          Sincerely,

                                         Jacqueline F. Bird

    APPENDIX B. List of Rare Plants of Ohio

                     RARE SPECIES OF NATIVE OHIO WILD PLANTS

         The attached list represents a draft tabulation of Ohio endangered,
    threatened, etc., vascular plant species as determined by the Natural Heritage
    Program on the indicated date. The list was compiled pursuant to Ohio Revised
    Code Chapter 1518 which directs the Chief of the Division of Natural Areas and
    Preserves to adopt criteria and lists of plants endangered or threatened in
    the state. The draft list, with necessary alterations, will become legal
    following completion of the public hearing process.

         The species are listed by family according to classic phylogenetic order.
    Nomenclature is generally that of M.L. Fernald, 1950, Gray's Manual of Botany,
    eighth edition. Where more recent names are employed, applicable synonyms in
    Fernald are indicated in parentheses. A column marked "Code No." indicates
    data processing numbers utilized by the Natural Heritage Program. The columns
    marked "US" and "OH" indicate status levels of the species as assigned by the
    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and by the'Ohio D.N.R., Division of Natural
    Areas and Preserves. Status codes are as follows:

         X - Extirpated                              PT - Proposed Threatened
         E - Endangered                               P - Potentially Threatened
        PE - Proposed Endangered                      H - Hybrid
        T - Threatened

         Although endangered hybrids are offered legal protection by neither the
    federal nor state governments.' they are included on the list for scientific
    and educational reasons.

         Questions should be directed to the Natural Heritage Program Administrato r,
    Division of Natural Areas and Preserves, Ohio Department of Natural Resources,
    Fountain Square, Columbus, Ohio 43224.
