This memorandum summarizes our watershed assessment of Little Sugar Creek to the downstream end of the project at the Elizabeth Avenue culvert under Kings Drive. Watershed Delineation The project area is located in central Mecklenburg County just southwest of downtown Charlotte in the Catawba River Basin. The drainage area of Upper Little Sugar Creek (from the headwaters to the project) is approximately 9.6 square miles. The headwaters of the creek are located in the northeast quadrant of Charlotte, south of I-85 and east of I-77. After flowing through the project site, Little Sugar Creek continues south through Mecklenburg County to join Sugar Creek which continues to the Catawba River east of Rock Hill, SC. Land Use The Little Sugar Creek watershed is located in a highly developed urban setting; approximately 80% of the land in the watershed has been developed. Approximately 43% of the land surface is impervious. The land uses within the watershed include residential (47%), industrial (25%), commercial (19%), woods (7%), and institutional (2%). Geology The city of Charlotte lies in the Charlotte Belt, which is a geologic zone comprised of predominantly metavolcanic and plutonic rock types. The geology of the project area is Devonian and Ordovician age granodiorite rock. The granodiorite is medium-grained, massive to weakly foliated, and is comprised mainly of plagioclase and quartz (Goldsmith, 1984). Bedrock knick points were observed in the project reach. These knick points indicate the presence of shallow bedrock and also indicate that bedrock is preventing the creek bed from further incision or downcutting. Soils The soils found within the floodplain of the project site consist of Urban soils. Urban soils describe areas where the original soils have been cut, filled, graded, or paved to the extent that a soil type can no longer be recognized. The existing site's banks are stabilized with riprap and a large portion of the floodplain serves as a parking lot. Hydrology The Upper Little Sugar Creek watershed is an urban watershed with a very high percentage of impervious cover. The development and impervious cover has impaired the natural hydrologic function of this watershed. The increase in development and impervious surface allows more rainfall to run off the land and directly into the creek. In less developed watersheds, a greater percentage of the rainfall is able to be absorbed by the ground and so less rainfall Hans off into the creek. Urban watersheds such as Little Sugar Creek will see higher quantities of rainfall enter the creek at a faster rate. Urban systems are often described as "flashy' since the stage and flow of the creek quickly increase in response to a storm; after the storm, the peak flow can quickly pass and the stage quickly recedes. Existing Stream Condition Much of Little Sugar Creek has been altered to accommodate development. The creek has historically been dredged and maintained as a flood control channel. Most of the banks have been armored to prevent erosion from high flow velocities. The project reach of Little Sugar Creek has been listed on the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's (NCDWQ) 303(d) list since 2000. Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) requires states to develop a list of waters not meeting water quality standards or which have impaired uses. The NCDWQ 303(d) list includes violations of impaired biological integrity and high fecal coliforrn concentrations for the creek. Bankfull Verification The bankfull stage along the Little Sugar Creek CPCC Reach was identified in the field, and work on the Midtown Reach and the Kings Drive Reach downstream of the project assisted with bankfull identification. The indicators were a break in slope on a narrow depositional feature and a high scour line. Vegetation trends were used as additional validation for this stage selection. These indicators are consistent with other North Carolina urban Piedmont streams. Bankfull data for the project reach was compared with the North Carolina Piedmont regional curve. The project's cross-sectional areas plot close to the urban regional curve data, indicating that bankfull stage was adequately selected within acceptable limits. In order to identify bankfull discharge along the downstream Kings Drive Reach, the current Mecklenburg County HEGRAS model was used. A range of discharges was run through the model to identify a range which correlated with the field-identified bankfull stage. The bankfull discharge ranged from 900 to 1,100 cubic feet per second (cfs) according to the model. These values are consistent with other North Carolina Piedmont urban streams. The bankfull discharge was further verified by astage-discharge rating curve developed at a USGS gage (02146409) near Medical Center Drive approximately 6,600 LF downstream from the CPCC Reach on Little Sugar Creek. The observed bankfull depth (bankfull height -water surface elevation) in the Kings Drive Reach was approximately 5.8 to 6.3 feet. This stage on the rating curve shows a discharge of 950 to 1,150 cfs. This identified discharge is near to the previously identified range and therefore within the acceptable limits. Two other reaches of Little Sugar Creek have had stream enhancement work performed. The Liz Hair Reach (Morehead Street to East Boulevard) and Westfield Road Reach (Princeton Street to Brandywine Road) are both located downstream of the Kings Drive Reach. A geomorphic survey has been conducted on both of these reaches. The Liz Hair Reach was a Rosgen Priority 4 enhancement project which did not change channel geometry. The Westfield Reach bankfull area plots near to the North Carolina Piedmont urban curve. The Kings Drive Reach data are consistent with the other Little Sugar Creek reaches, thus further verifying that the bankfull stage was selected within acceptable limits. Reference Reach and Design Parameter Selection Two reference reaches were identified off the project site and are located in the Piedmont of North Carolina. These same reaches were used for the Westfield Road Reach natural channel design. Campbell Creek is located in Charlotte, NC, and has asemi-urban drainage area of 6.1 square miles. Silas Creek is located in Winston-Salem, NC, and has a watershed that is suburban with a high percentage of forest. The Silas Creek reach drains 3.3 square miles. Both of these sites plot close to the rural regression curve for bankfull cross sectional area, thus indicating the Piedmont regional curve is applicable to these streams which are being used as reference reaches. The fact that these streams' bankfull characteristics plot near to the rural curve rather than the urban curve may indicate that urbanization has not had much of an effect on the geomorphic functions of these streams. Baker Engineering Page 2 LSC CPCC Reach Summary June 1, 2007 Campbell Creek classifies as a Rosgen E4 type stream, while Silas Creek classifies as a Rosgen B4c type. Silas Creek is more entrenched with an entrenchment ratio (ER) of 1.3 than Campbell Creek's ER at 3.5. Silas Creek has a higher width to depth ratio at 15.1, while Campbell Creek is approximately 9.7. The grain size distribution of the reference reaches is comparable to that of Little Sugar Creek design reach. The design reach has a lower d~ grain size, which can be attributed to a more urbanized watershed than the reference reaches. The average water surface slope of the design reach is 0.3% and is also comparable with the reference reaches which are between 0.7% to 0.8%. The Little Sugar Creek CPCC Reach stream enhancement project will consist of Rosgen Priority 3 and 4 enhancement. Floodplain benches will be excavated in a few short, isolated locations. The stream alignment will not be adjusted due to restrictions from infrastructure and utilities. This reach currently classifies between a Rosgen B4 and G4. An absolute Rosgen stream classification of urban streams such as Little Sugar Creek is difficult due to historical channel modification and the limited ability of the channel to freely adjust to its channel-forming agents because of utility and infrastructure constraints. Sediment Sampling Baker Engineering collected sediment samples in stable riffles downstream of the project reach using pavement-subpavement and modified Wolman 100-count sampling techniques. Most riffles contain a large percentage of embedded riprap sized particles that appear to have sloughed into the channel from past bank stabilization efforts. The embedded nature and algal growth on these larger particles indicate that they are not likely mobile during bankfull events. For our pavement- subpavement sample, we selected a location that appeared to be most representative of the mobile portion of the riffles. We conducted a wetted perimeter zigzag pebble count at a riffle to characterize the pavement materials. Sediment Analysis We checked sediment transport competency of the existing channel reaches using the methodology developed by Rosgen and Jessup (Jessup, personal communication, 2002). This methodology is based on dimensionless critical shear stress that is determined from ratios of pavement to subpavement particle sizes. From the dimensionless critical shear stress estimates, critical depth and water surface slope can be estimated and used to check a design. We also used a boundary shear stress calculation and a modified version of Shield's curve to estimate the largest particle size that can be moved in the channel. Our stream enhancement work will not change the slope of the reach or the bankfull cross-section of the creek. We investigated whether the stream can be expected to aggrade or degrade over time given its existing slope and cross- sectiongeomorphic characteristics. Our calculations indicate that the existing average stream slope of 0.0028 feet per foot is near to the critical slope of 0.0022 to 0.0025 feet per foot needed to transport the median bed material. A reach average slope was calculated for the creek from 7"' Street to 3`~ Street. The local slope for portions of the project reach is much steeper. The actual bankfull depth of 4.4 to 4.6 feet is more than the critical depth of 3.7 to 4.0 feet. These results indicate that degradation could be a risk along the project reach. Proposed in-stream boulder structures will provide grade control as safety measures against degradation. The shallow bedrock observed upstream and downstream of the project site will also prevent degradation. Aggradation is not expected to be a problem because of these calculation results and because not much coarse sediment is being supplied to the system. The supply of coarse sediment in the size Baker Engineering Page 3 LSC CPCC Reach Summary June 1, 2007 range greater than about 90 mm is very limited in a developed, urban watershed such as Little Sugar Creek. Furthermore, the existing channel appears to be moving its sediment load adequately as evidenced by the lack ofmid-channel bars, and the design section does not represent an extensive variation from the existing condition. Referring to the modified Shield's curve, the largest movable particle size for the channel is 150 to 200 millimeters (mm), which indicates that the 43 mm to 63 mm maximum-size particle collected during the subpavement sampling will likely be mobile during bankfull events. This movement will prevent aggradation.
