EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Davis Branch stream restoration project is located near the town of Marshville, Union County, ` North Carolina Prior to restoration, active use of the land for cattle grazing and hay resulted in unpaired, channelized, erodmg, incised and entrenched stream channels The project reaches include the restoration of 1,799 linear feet of the Davis Branch mainstem, enhancement of 1,229 linear feet of the mamstem, preservation of 766 linear feet of the mamstem, restoration of 459 linear feet of an unnamed tributary (UT1) and enhancement of 396 linear feet of the same tributary Restoration of the project streams, completed during April 2009, provided the desired habitat and stability features required to unprove and enhance the ecologic health of the streams for the long -term The following report documents the Year 4 annual monitoring for this project Vegetative monitoring was completed on September 13, 2012, following the Carolina Vegetation Survey methodology Stem counts completed at ten vegetation plots show an average density of 591 stems /acre in Year 4 This is a slight decrease from the Year 3 total of 741 stems /acre for the site but is a marked increase over the Year 2 average of 454 stems/ acre for the site This density meets the success criteria of 288 stems /acre after four years of monitoring Only one plot (plot 3) had a stem density below the nu mmum To address the issue of low stem counts for planted stems observed in the fall of 2010, specific areas where targeted for supplemental planting in the spring 2011 within the riparian corridors, concentrated along UT and the portion of the Davis Branch downstream from the confluence with UT1 This planting effort is reflected in the 2011 increase in average stem density for planted stems across the site Some natural mortality has occurred over the dry summer months of 2012 This is reflected in the smaller number of stems /acre observed in Year 4 In 2011, there was a minor area of the riparian corridor along the right bank of the marnstem that was exhibiting denudation This area is situated between stations 8 +00 and 10 +00 A that time, it was labeled as a vegetation problem area of low concern because there was no evidence that denudation was affecting stream stability The lack of vegetation appeared to be attributed to a natural condition It is situated in the understory of a secondary growth forest where there is competition for light during certain portions of the day It was expected that shade tolerant recruits would establish along this section of stream in future years Indeed, this is what appears to be happening in Year 4 Therefore, this area has been taken off of the Vegetation Problem Area Map in Appendix A Year 4 monitoring of the streams identified a few problem areas along the project reaches The banks of a few of the outside meander bends are lacking vegetation to stabilize the slopes. These areas are considered low concern at this time However, it should be noted that vegetation is beginning to infiltrate the bare areas in 2012, further stabilizing the banks of the project reaches The visual stream stability assessment revealed that the majority of stream features are functioning as designed and built on the Davis Branch mamnstem and unnamed tributary Dimensional measurements of the monumented cross - sections remain stable when compared to as -built conditions The comparison of the As- Built, Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3 profiles to the Year 41ong- term stream monitoring profile data shows stability with num mal change from as -built conditions The substrate of the constructed riffles remains stable, with a median particle distribution in the very coarse gravel range The pool substrate remains stable as well, with median particle sizes ranging from silt to very coarse gravel, based on Year 4 substrate analysis Based on the crest gage network installed on the project reaches, at least 3 bankfull events have been recorded since construction was completed No bankfull events were recorded in Year 4 Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Location and Setting The project is located southeast of Olive Branch Road and west of Marshville -Olive Branch Road, 7 8 miles north - northeast of the town of Marshville, Union County, North Carolina The site location and vicinity map is presented on Figure 1 The project is located on properties owned by Edward Bruce Staton and wife Deborah H. Staton, and Keith Bunyan Griffin and wife Phyllis Griffin. The project includes restoration activities along Davis Branch mainstem and one unnamed tributary stream, designated as UT1 throughout this document. The directions to the project site are as follows: From U.S Route 74 in Marshville, North Carolina, turn onto North Elm Street (SR 205) and travel 5 3 miles to Olive Branch Road (SR 1006) Turn right onto Olive Branch Road and travel 3 9 miles to 9406 Olive Branch Road (Edward and Deborah Staton Residence) Turn right onto the Staton's driveway, the dedicated egress /mgress access to the recorded EEP Conservation Easement Areas on the Davis Branch and Unnamed Tributary, Stream Restoration Project B. Project Structure, Mitigation Type, Approach and Objectives Pre - restoration land use surrounding the project streams involved cattle pasture and hay land Cattle had direct access to the project stream reaches for drinking water, and in areas where established riparian canopy exist, cattle frequently accessed the project corridors for shade In doing so, the cattle had denuded and destabilized streambanks due to grazing, browsing and associated hoof shear The unstable streambanks and denuded riparian corridors were contributing large quantities of nutrient laden sediment to the project stream reaches Eroded sediment from the unstable streambanks was transported downstream and off site into the larger Davis Branch, Gourdvine Creek and Richardson Creek watersheds Runoff from agricultural land use together with cattle intrusion along the project corridors provided direct nutrient pathways into the project stream reaches Pre - restoration, the upper reach of UT1 had sparse riparian vegetation along its stream corridor The lower third of UT1 and the upper Davis Branch mamstem reaches had established hardwood forested riparian corridors However, cattle intrusion had denuded herbaceous groundcover, and adversely impaired shrub, rmd -story and canopy vegetation Prior to restoration, a number of anthropogemc factors impacted the stream channel and riparian corridor along the impaired upper mainstem restoration reach, resulting in an unstable, moderately incised and braided condition In its pre - existing impaired state, upper Davis Branch was transitiomng from E4 /1 channel dimensions to a multiple thread Rosgen 134 /1 stream type, albeit under incised conditions along the reach Deep channel incision was attributed to uncontrolled cattle intrusion (herbaceous groundcover grazing, shrub vegetation browsing and hoof shear) resulting in a denuded riparian landscape and destabilized, eroding streambanks Multiple thread channels, created by breaches that rerouted the channel around woody debris dams (avulsions) were present at locations throughout the reach In addition to cattle intrusion, channelization and an average channel slope of 158 percent increased critical shear stresses acting on the streambed and banks during Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Bank height ratios calculated at unpaired conditions cross - sections ranged from 158 to 1 86 (deeply incised) Deep channel incision resulted from steep channel gradient (2 16 percent), linear channel alignment (channel sinuosity = 1.06), mean bankfull flow velocities approaching 5 5 ft/sec, high shear velocity (u* = 0.93 ft/sec), and extremely high nearbank critical shear stress (Tc = 148 lbs /ft2 ) In addition to unstable channel hydraulics and morphology, uncontrolled cattle intrusion exacerbated streambank and streambed erosion The cumulative effect of these factors resulted in nearly 5 feet high, vertical eroding streambanks on the lower Davis Branch, EI mainstem reach. A number of anthropogemc factors impacted the stream channel and riparian corridor along the impaired UT1 reach, resulting in a channelized, entrenched and deeply incised condition In its pre- existing impaired state, UT1 maintained E4 /lb channel morphology, albeit under incised conditions Bank height ratios calculated at impaired riffles were 2 47, 3 67 and 2 32, respectively, with a mean BHR of 2 82 The extreme degree of channel incision leading to entrenchment was attributed to steep profile gradient (2 3 percent), linear channel alignment (sinuosity = 1 09) high bankfull mean velocity (6 58 ft/sec), lugh shear velocity (u* = 0 68 ft/sec), high nearbank critical shear stress (TC = 0 85 lbs /ft2) and uncontrolled cattle intrusion The cumulative effects of these impacts resulted in nearly 4 feet high, vertical, eroding streambanks on the impaired UT reach As discussed in the Restoration Plan for Davis Branch and UT1, the mitigation goals and objectives for the project involved restoring stable physical and biological function of the project streams beyond pre - restoration (impaired) conditions Impaired conditions consisted of channelized, eroding, incised and entrenched stream channels Nutrient and sediment loading from agricultural land use and runoff, together with vegetative denuding and destabilized streambanks associated with hoof shear resulting from uncontrolled cattle access and was evident The specific mitigation goals and objectives proposed and achieved for the project are listed below • Stable stream channels with features inherent of ecologically diverse environments, with appropriate streambed features including appropriately spaced pool and riffle sequences, and riparian corridors planted with a diversity of indigenous vegetation • Reference reach boundary conditions were superimposed on the impaired project reaches in the restoration design and construction of improvements • Constructed stream channels with the appropriate geometry and gradient to convey bankfull flows while entraining suspended sediment (wash load) and bedload materials readily available to the streams • Restored connection between the bankfull channels and their floodplains, by constructing stable stream channels, protected by vegetation and lute coir fabric to prevent erosion • Minimized future land use impacts to project stream reaches by conveying perpetual, restrictive conservation easements to the State of North Carolina, including stream corridor protection via livestock exclusion fencing at the surveyed and recorded conservation easement boundaries, with gates at the edge of the riparian corridor on river right and left at reserved conservation easement crossings adjacent to active hay and pasture land Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2012 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 4 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 5 The restoration of Davis Branch mamstem and UT1 met project goals and objectives set forth in the restoration plan, by providing desired habitat and stability features required to enhance and provide long -term ecologic health for the project reaches More specifically, the completed restoration project accomplished the enhancements listed below. Davis Branch Mainstem: • Reversed the effects of channelization using a Priority Level I/Level II (PI/II) and Enhancement Level I (EI) restoration approaches, restoration increased the average width/depth ratio from 9 1 to 18 8 on the PI/II reach and from 6.9 to 23 8 on the EI reach after three years of monitoring • Restored natural pattern to the P"ll reach channel alignment, increasing sinuosity from 1.12 to 1.29 on the PLM reach, while maintaining a stable relationship between the valley slope and bankfull slope (the bankfull slope was steeper than the valley slope prior to restoration and is now less than the valley slope post - restoration) Stable pattern, profile and dimension were restored based on extrapolation from reference reach boundary conditions On the mainstem EI reach, profile and dimension were restored based upon reference reach boundary conditions Pattern (sinuosity = 1 06) was not modified) • Stabilized erodmg streambanks by constructing appropriately sized channels with stable streambank slopes built using a combination of embedded stone, grade control structures, topsoil, herbaceous seeding, mulch, natural fabrics and hearty vegetation including live branch (3 -foot spacings), bareroot (4 -foot spacings) and 1- gallon tree (100 -foot spacings) plantings • The average Bank Height Ratio was decreased from 141 to 100 on the PI/II reach and 1 86 to 100 on the EI reach, respectively (i e , deeply incised to stable) • Restored connection between the bankfull channel and the adjacent floodprone area by raising the bankfull channel to the elevation of the adjacent floodplain The restored mainstem PI/II and EI reach entrenchment ratios range from 3 34 to 6 85 after four years of monitoring • Created rnstream aquatic habitat features, including appropriately spaced pool and riffle sequences, and a stable transition of the mainstem reach EI thalweg to the invert of the existing channel at the bottom of the mainstem project reach • Revegetated the riparian corridor with indigenous canopy, rind -story, shrub and herbaceous ground cover species, and preserved existing forested riparian corridors where present • Protected the riparian corridors by placing livestock exclusion fencing at the edge of the perpetual, recorded conservation easement boundary Davis Branch UT1: Reversed the effects of channelization through a combination of Enhancement Level II (Ell) and Priority Level I (PI) restoration techniques The average width/depth ratio of the restored UTI project reach was 20 62 after four years of monitoring Stable dimension and profile grade control was restored on the Ell reach (profile station 0 +00 to 3 +96) Stable pattern, profile and dimension were restored on the PI reach (profile station 3 +96 to 8 +54) based on extrapolation from reference reach to restored reach boundary conditions Restored stable channel pattern on the PI reach, increasing sinuosity from 109 to 1 34 Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2012 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 4 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 6 • Stabilized eroding streambanks by providing appropriately sized channels with stable streambank slopes. The average Bank Height Ratio has been reduced from 2 82 to 100 (deeply incised to stable) • Improved the connection between the restored stream channel and the adjacent floodprone area by raising the bankfull channel to the elevation of the adjacent floodplain. The completed restoration increased the average entrenchment ratio from 3.63 to 5 22 after four years of monitoring • Created stable channel dimensions, substrate and grade control structures (rock sills) on the Ell reach; Created stable pattern, profile and dimension, including appropriately spaced raffle, run, pool and glide sequences, together with a stable transition of the UTI PI reach thalweg at its confluence with the Davis Branch Mamstem. • Revegetated the riparian corridor with indigenous canopy, mid -story, shrub and herbaceous ground cover, preserving existing forested riparian corridors where present • Protected the riparian corridor by placing livestock exclusion fencing at the edge of the perpetual, recorded conservation easement boundary Information on the project structure and objectives is included in Tables I and II Table I.

PROJECT CONDITION AND MONITORING RESULTS A. Vegetation Assessment 1 Soil Data Soil information was obtained from the NRCS Soil Survey of Union County, North Carolina (USDA NRCS, January, 1996). The predominant soil type mapped on the Davis Branch mamstem is the Cid channery silt loam, 1 to 5 percent slopes. This map unit consists mainly of moderately deep, moderately well drained and somewhat poorly drained, nearly level and gently sloping Cid and similar soils on flats, on ndges in the uplands, in depressions and in headwater drainageways Typically, the surface layer is light brownish gray channery silt loam 4 inches thick, while the subsurface layer is a pale yellow channery silt loam 5 inches thick The subsoil is 18 inches thick Weathered, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 27 inches Hard, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 32 inches The depth to hard bedrock ranges from 20 to 40 inches Included with the Cid soils on site are areas of Badin channery silt loam (BaB), 2 to 8 percent slopes, mapped on river left along the mamstem Priority Level LM restoration reach and along the mamstem preservation reach The Badin map unit consists mainly of moderately deep, well drained undulating soils on convex upland ridges that are highly dissected by interrmttent drainageways Typically, the surface layer is brown Channery silt loam 7 inches thick The subsoil is 21 inches thick Weathered, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 28 inches Hard, fractured slate bedrock is at a depth of about 41 inches An area of Badin Channery silty clay loam, 2 to 8 percent, eroded (BdC2) is present along the lower Enhancement Level I mainstem reach on Davis Branch The soil taxonomy is essentially identical to the BaB map unit Goldston-Badin complex soils (map symbols - GsB and GsQ, 2 to 8 and 8 to 15 percent slopes, respectively, are the mapped units on UT1 GsB soils are mapped along the upper third of the project reach GsC soils are mapped to the confluence of UT1 with Davis Branch mamstem The GsB mapped soil unit consists mainly of shallow and moderately deep, well drained to excessively drained, undulating Goldston and Badin soils on ndges in upland areas, as opposed to the GsC (2 to 8 percent slopes) soils mapped on side slopes The topography is highly dissected by interrmttent drainageways The GsB unit is about 45 percent Goldston soil and about 40 percent Badin soil, while the GsC unit is about 55 percent Goldston soil and about 30 percent Badin soil Data on the soils series found within and near the project site is summarized in Table VI Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Vegetative Problem Areas Davis Branch Stream Restoration / EEP Project No. D06054 -F Photo Feature/Issue Station # / Range Probable Cause # 8 +00 — 10 +00, Unknown could be shade competition or NA Bare Banks Mainstem poor, rocky soil (Resolved) Vegetative Problem Areas are defined as areas either lacking vegetation or containing populations of exotic vegetation There is an area of the riparian corridor along the right bank of the mainstem that was exhibiting significant denudation in 2011 This area is situated between stations 8 +00 and 10 +00 In Year 3, it was labeled as a vegetation problem area of low concern because there was no evidence that the denudation was currently affecting stream stability At the time, the lack of vegetation in this area appeared to be an exacerbation of a natural condition It is situated in the understory of a secondary growth forest where there is competition for light during certain portions of the day It was expected that shade tolerant recruits would establish along this section of stream in future years Indeed, this is what appears to be happening in Year 4 Therefore, this area has been taken off of the Vegetation Problem Area Map in Appendix A There were no problem areas identified along UT1 in monitoring Year 4 to report in Table VII There were several areas along both the mainstem and UT1 where the herbaceous vegetation was sparse underneath the canopy of the large trees preserved during stream restoration It is likely that the herbaceous vegetation was patchy in the riparian woodlands prior to construction for stream restoration The condition as it exists in Year 4 is an artifact of the previously sparse vegetative community The sparse vegetation issue has improved from Year 2 monitoring to Year 4 monitoring, as native vegetation continues to spread across the project site Because of the previously mentioned Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2012 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 4 of S EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 17 reasons, all of these locations of sparse vegetation are not considered problem areas at this time. A trajectory toward an increase in stabilizing vegetation cover between monitoring Years 2 and 4 is depicted in the Year 4 fixed station photos (Appendix B) There is only one vegetation plot where the density of planted woody stems is not high enough to meet the required stem counts. Densities of planted woody species are discussed in the Stem Counts section of this report 3 Vegetation Problem Area Plan View No vegetation problem areas of concern were noted for the project reaches in Year 4 The Vegetation Problem Area Map is included in Appendix A. 4 Stem Counts A summary of the stem count data for each species arranged by plot is shown in Table VIII. Table VlHa provides the survival information for planted species, while Table VIIIb provides the total stem count for the plots, including all planted and recruit stems. This data was compiled from the information collected on each plot using the CVS - -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4 0 Additional data tables generated using the CVS -EEP format are included in Appendix A All vegetation plots are labeled as VP on Figure 2 5 Vegetation Problem Areas Photos Since no vegetation problem areas were noted in Year 4 photographs are not included in Appendix A Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Monitoring Report — Davis Branch EEP Contract # D06054 -F December 2012 Monitoring Year 4 of S Page 20 supplemental plantings followed the specifications of the project Restoration Plan and Mitigation Plan documents Large (3 gallon potted material) and small (bare -root) woody stock was utilized in performing the remedial plantings. The larger saplings have a more developed root system and will thus be better able to compete with the existing vegetation Bare root individuals were placed along UT1 and the downstream end of Davis Branch mainstem where shade and vegetation competition is relatively nonexistent. A table describing the species and approximated quantities of vegetation installed in the spring of 2011 is included in Appendix A 5 Vegetation Plot Photos Vegetation plot photos are provided in Appendix A B. Stream Assessment 1 Hydrologic Criteria Two crest -stage stream gages were installed on the project reaches, one each on the Davis Branch Mainstem and UT1 The locations of the crest -stage stream gages are shown on the monitoring plan view (Figure 2) No bankfull event was recorded during the fourth year of monitoring, as presented in Table IX This brings the total number of bankfull events to three apiece, for each project reach Table IX.

Additionally, vegetation continues to infiltrate many of the bare areas This is resulting in an increased root density which provides better stabilization for the stream banks At this time, remedial maintenance is not warranted These areas are noted on the Stream Problem Area Map in Appendix B in order that they be watched to catch any erosion problems that may occur before vegetation becomes fully established along these slopes Actively monitoring these areas will allow developing problems to be caught early and managed without the need for mechanical intervention If erosion problems anse, the outside meander bends could be stabilized using vegetative methods such as seedmg and live stakes, or with a natural fiber (coconut) geotextile It is expected that streamside vegetation will continue to increase in density over the next year, thus allowing these stream problem areas to be de- listed from Table X and taken off the Stream Problem Area Map in Year 5 The bare bank issues noted along UT1 in Year 2 have been lessened in Years 3 and 4 due to the colonization of native grasses and herbaceous vegetation Evidence of the increase in streamside vegetation can be seen in the Fixed Station Photos in Appendix B It is expected that this native vegetation will continue to fill in bare areas along UT in the years to come 3 Stream Problem Areas Plan View The locations of problem areas are shown on the stream problem area plan view included in Appendix B Each problem area is color coded with yellow for areas of low concern (areas to be monitored) or red for high concern (areas where maintenance is warranted) 4 Stream Problem Areas Photos Photographs of the stream problem areas are included in Appendix B Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

In addition to the meander category, there were a few pools and riffles that did not match the as -built condition as presented in the graphs of the longitudinal profile (see Appendix B) It is assumed that the rock substrate is shifting over time, evolving into that which better matches a stable channel morphology The pool and riffle features are all still present and functional Additionally, a few pools on the mainstem restoration reach and UTl exhibited minor aggradation in Year 4 These pools remain functional Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Quantitative Measures Graphic interpretations of cross - sections, profiles and substrate particle distributions are presented in Appendix B A summary of the baseline morphology for the site is included in Tables XII and XIH for comparison with the monitoring data shown in the tables in the appendix The stream pattern data provided for Year 4 is the same as the data provided from the As -Built survey, as pattern has not changed based on the Year 4 stream surveys and visual field assessment. Bedform features continue to evolve along the restored reaches as shown on the long -term longitudinal profiles Dimensional measurements of the monumented cross - sections remain stable when compared to as -built conditions Riffle lengths, slopes and pool to pool spacings are representative of reference conditions A few parameter measurements have changed when comparing the Year 1 -4 and As -built profile data. As in previous years, the longitudinal profile survey in Year 4 continues to detect nucro- features that were not identified during the as -built survey. Pool and riffle features are developing in the restored and enhanced reaches as the stream distributes its bedload and redistributes the constructed substrate during high flow events The comparison of the As -Built and Year 4 long -term stream monitoring profile graphs show stability with minimal change from as -built conditions, with the exception of the aforementioned microfeatures The constructed riffles of Davis Branch mamstem remain stable, with a median particle distribution in the very coarse gravel range The pool substrate remains stable as well, with median particle sizes ranging from silt to very course gravel based on Year 4 substrate analysis Median particle distributions for the pools of the mamstem have fallen since 2011 (Year 3) This is a sign that, since construction, enough time has passed to allow smaller particles to settle naturally into the channel and enough flow events have occurred to sort the developing substrate This is a sign of increasing substrate stability for the Davis Branch mamstem The substrate is therefore stable in Year 4 and remedial maintenance work is not warranted A shift in particle distribution along the enhancement reach of Davis Branch resulted in a classification change from 0/1 (as- built) to C4 /1 (Years 14) The Year 4 classification for this reach continues to be a C4 /1 The as -built data was collected immediately after construction, at which time the substrate was composed almost entirely of the large material placed into the channel during construction, as well as the in situ bedrock The subsequent monitoring results show that smaller particles have naturally settled into the larger material and caused a change in stream classification This shift in particle distribution shows a trend toward stability and does not require any maintenance work The reach composite for UT is the same as the nffle composite for this stream, as both monumented cross sections are nffles In Year 4, the D50 is 35 79 mm This represents the second consecutive year where the D50 falls within the very coarse gravel range Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

METHODOLOGY Year 4 vegetation monitoring was conducted in September 2012 using the CVS-EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4 0 (Lee, M T , Peet, RK , Roberts, S.R , Wentworth, T R. 2006). Year 4 stream monitoring was conducted in September 2012 in order to provide adequate tune between the Year 3 and Year 4 monitoring surveys. Subsequent stream monitoring will occur in the fall of Year 5 in order to provide a full year between surveys. Vegetation monitoring will be conducted in the fall of 2013, providing a full year between vegetative surveys Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.
