Location Narrative	Tamarix stand in drainage. Most of Tamarix has high decadence with little regrowth. Dead shrubs are ~2% cover and many Xanthium stems from last year. Most of Tamarix is on edge of sand bar but not in water. Reports of spraying from BLM and area may have been sprayed with herbicide due to high decadence? Helianthus had high cover in a previous year.
