Biological inventory of the proposed site of the Defense Waste Processing Facility on the Savannah River Plant in Aiken, South Carolina. Annual report
This report summarizes basic survey data obtained on various plant and animal groups, and gives information on relative abundance and endangered and threatened species. Some of the more common species have been selected for more comprehensive studies. In particular, amphibians compose the most abundant group on the sites and their population sizes are being monitored in order to obtain preconstruction baseline data. Burton and Likens (1975) showed that salamanders were more abundant in a forest than either birds or small mammals. Past and present amphibian studies (Patterson, 1978; Bennett, Glanville, and Gibbons, 1980; Gibbons and Bennett, 1974) on the SRP indicate this may also be true on the present study area.
