The goal of each riparian management plan and agreement is the protection, conservation or restoration of healthy riparian habitat. Department assessment of the current and potential health of riparian habitat will include, but is not limited to, consideration of the following general goals, as consistent with the ecological potential of an individual property:
 
(1) Sufficient shade to moderate water and air temperatures;
 
(2) Adequate native vegetative cover to reduce streambank erosion, provide organic matter input, enhance water quality, and provide for the delivery of large wood to the stream channel;
 
(3) Sufficient in-channel large wood to promote complex stream habitat conditions, such as pools and riffles; and
 
(4) Habitat for native fish and wildlife.
