Pleasant Creek Restoration Project Bowman Property Randolph County, North Carolina DMS Contract D15012i DMS Project Number 44 Cape Fear River Basin Cataloging Unit 03030003 Prepared for: NC Department of Environmental Quality Division of Mitigation Services 1652 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1652 Prepared by: KCI Associates of North Carolina, P.A. 4601 Six Forks Rd, Suite 220 Raleigh, NC 27609 (919) 783-9214 October 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This mitigation plan has been written in conformance with the requirements of the following: • Federal rule for compensatory mitigation project sites as described in the Federal Register Title 33 Navigation and Navigable Waters Volume 3 Chapter 2 Section § 332.8 paragraphs (c)(2) through (c)(14). These documents govern DMS operations and procedures for the delivery of compensatory mitigation. Mt. Pleasant Creek is a perennial stream located in the Cape Fear River Basin (03030003 8 -digit cataloging unit) in Randolph County, North Carolina. The portion of Mt. Pleasant Creek undergoing enhancement in this project is an existing 1,886 linear feet segment located on the property owned by Martha and Mickey Bowman. This project first originated as a DOT project in 2006, but was not implemented at that time. The site was instituted by DMS in 2006. Agricultural BMPs have been implemented on the property by DOT/DMS. During the acquisition phase (prior to 2006), DOT agreed to provide the landowner with fencing (four strand high tensile), alternative watering, and a new ford crossing. DMS contracted with the Randolph Soil & Water District to design and oversee the installation of these BMPs. This mitigation plan presents the revised plans and design for the site. The existing stream is predominantly a C4 stream. The 5.24 -square -mile project watershed is located in a rural setting. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established 100 -year water surface elevations and no -encroachment limits on Mt. Pleasant Creek. The adjacent land at the restoration site was used for cattle grazing and has wooded uplands and a cleared floodplain field. A vegetated buffer along the stream, narrow on most of the west bank, is located within the stream corridor. The existing stream ranges from 28 to 40 feet wide with steep to moderate bank angles. The channel is incised, with bank height ratios ranging from 1.2 to 1.7. The goals for this project are: - Restore long-term stability to exposed banks and reduce susceptibility to scour. - Eliminate stream bacteria and nutrient exposure from animal waste and wallow. - Restore a contiguous riparian buffer that connects to the surrounding forested mature buffer. The project goals will be addressed through the following objectives: - Enhance 705 linear feet of stream by stabilizing the bedform, re-establishing the thalweg where there has been excessive sediment deposition, and repairing actively eroding banks. - Improve an additional 871 linear feet of stream through enhancement by putting the stream in a permanent conservation easement and eliminating the potential for future cattle access. - Preserve an additional 290 linear feet of stream by putting the stream in a permanent conservation easement. - Buffer restoration and enhancement of 1.86 acres throughout the stream corridor. The project is located approximately five miles southwest of Liberty, North Carolina in Randolph County. Specifically, the site is approximately 2.4 miles west on Whites Chapel Road from the intersection of NC - 49. The center of the site is at approximately 35.35.7938° N and - 79.6363° W near the south-eastern portion of the Grays Chapel USGS Quadrangle. Approximately 705 linear feet of Mt. Pleasant Creek will be improved with Enhancement I activities to stabilize the stream. The downstream 871 linear feet of Mt. Pleasant Creek will be improved by Enhancement 11. The remaining 290 linear feet of Mt. Pleasant Creek will be preserved by putting the stream in a permanent conservation easement. The site will be monitored for five years or until the success criteria are met. Mt.

Site Protection Instrument Appendix B. Baseline Information Data Appendix C. Project Plan Sheets Mitigation Plan Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project 1.0 RESTORATION PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The North Carolina Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) develops River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP) to guide its restoration activities within each of the state's 54 cataloging units. RBRPs delineate specific watersheds that exhibit both the need and opportunity for wetland, stream and riparian buffer restoration. These watersheds are called Targeted Local Watersheds (TLWs) and receive priority for DMS planning and restoration project funds. However, this project was identified by NCDOT, and the RBRP was developed after this project was acquired. This project was not planned through that process. The 2009 Cape Fear River Basin RBRP identified HUC 03030003020010 (Sandy Creek) as a Targeted Local Watershed, of which the project site is a part (NCEEP 2009). This is a largely rural watershed. The watershed is characterized by 54% forest; however, only 1.5% is protected as conservation lands. There are six registered dairy operations, one registered cattle operation, one registered poultry operation, and seven swine operations in the subbasin (NCDWR 2005). As of 2014, the watershed had no streams on the NCDENR Division of Water Resources' (DWR) list of impaired waters, but the Sandy Creek reservoir shows indications of high nutrient levels (NCDWR 2014). The Sandy Creek Reservoir's physical water quality parameters (dissolved oxygen, water temperature, pH and conductivity) were within state water quality standards in 2008 and nutrient concentrations were elevated. The reservoir's mean total phosphorus ranged from 0.07 to 0.2 mg/L. and mean total organic nitrogen ranged from 0.7 to 0.9 mg/L. In response to the availability of nutrients, chlorophyll a was greater than the state water quality standard of 40 µg/L. and ranged from 41 µg/L. to 63 µg/L. Analysis of phytoplankton samples collected in 2008 revealed the presence of severe blooms present throughout the summer (NCDWR 2009). The project is located within a Water Supply Watershed and a long portion of Sandy Creek is recognized by the NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) as a Significant Natural Heritage Area. It is habitat for numerous mussel species such as Carolina creekshell (Villosa vaughaniana), notched rainbow (Villosa constricta), and eastern creekshell (Villosa delumbis) (NCEEP 2009). Although the project was initiated before the 2009 RBRP, this Mitigation Plan design is aligned with the basin priorities, and includes the following: - Reduce sources of sediment and nutrients by enhancing riparian buffer vegetation, excluding livestock, and enhancing stream and buffer function. Project -specific goals for the site will include: - Restore long-term stability to exposed banks and reduce susceptibility to scour. - Eliminate stream bacteria and nutrient exposure from animal waste and wallow. - Restore a contiguous riparian buffer that connects to the surrounding forested mature buffer. The project goals will be addressed through the following objectives: - Enhance 705 linear feet of stream by stabilizing the bedform, re-establishing the thalweg where there has been excessive sediment deposition, and repairing actively eroding banks. - Improve an additional 871 linear feet of stream through enhancement by putting the stream in a permanent conservation easement and eliminating the potential for future cattle access. - Preserve an additional 290 linear feet of stream by putting the stream in a permanent conservation easement. - Buffer restoration and enhancement of 1.86 acres throughout the stream corridor. October 2015 1 Mitigation Plan Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project 2.0 SITE SELECTION 2.1 Directions The Mt. Pleasant Creek Site is located approximately 0.5 mile northeast of the intersection of Ramseur Julian Road (SR 2442) and Whites Chapel Road (SR 2456) in Randolph County. From Raleigh, take U.S. Highway 64 west to Siler City and then take U.S. Highway 421 north to N.C. Highway 49. Take a left onto Highway 49, go approximately 3 miles, and take a right onto Whites Chapel Road. Stay on Whites Chapel Road for approximately 5 miles and then the access driveway will be located on the right side of the road. 2.2 Site Selection Within the 03030003020010 USGS Cataloging Unit (Sandy Creek), most of the watershed is forest and pasture land and remains unaffected by urban development. The 03030003020010 USGS Cataloging Unit has been identified by DMS as a TLW. As of 2014, the watershed had no streams on DWR's list of impaired waters; however, the Sandy Creek Reservoir shows indications of high nutrient levels, likely related to the large number of animal operations. Continued implementation of practices to reduce nutrient inputs to Sandy Creek Reservoir is recommended for this watershed (NCEEP 2009). The main stream, Sandy Creek, flows through Randolph County to Sandy Creek Reservoir, a water supply for Ramseur and Franklinville. The watershed for the Mt. Pleasant Creek Project/Bowman Site is comprised of 5.24 square miles at the downstream limit. Section 2.4 Watershed Map shows the site in relation to the project watershed. More information about the project watershed is located in Section 4.1. The site receives flow from two perennial streams, Mt. Pleasant Creek (DWR Stream Index Number 17- 16-3) and one tributary (UT to Mt. Pleasant Creek). DWR classifies Mt. Pleasant Creek as WS -III, which designates waters used as sources of potable water where a more protective WS -1 or II classification is not feasible. These waters are also protected for Class C uses. WS -III waters are generally in low to moderately developed watersheds. General discharge permits are only allowed near the water supply intake whereas domestic and non -process industrial discharges are allowed in the rest of the water supply watershed. The project site is bounded by interspersed pasture and forest to the east, forest to the south, pasture and forest to the north, and agricultural land and forest to the west. The site has a long history of hydrologic modification due to cattle grazing on the property. The site offers an opportunity within this TLW to reduce sediment inputs from failing banks and to reduce potential nutrients and bacteria entering the streams from cattle. Expanded stream buffers will also extend the forested corridor along the stream. The existing site conditions are shown in Section 2.6 and seen in site photographs (Section 2.9). 2.2.1 Historic Site Geology/Geomorphic Setting A detailed soil delineation was previously performed by others on the site. The majority of the project area (98.5%) is dominated by variations of the Georgeville soil series as mapped by NRCS. These are well drained soils. NRCS has mapped the majority of the site as Georgeville silt loam, 8-15 percent slopes, but there are a few inclusions of Georgeville silt loam, 2-8 percent slopes. The data below presents a typical profile description for the Georgeville series (NRCS 2006).

Pleasant Creek Restoration Project Texture/Structure Silt loam/gr Clay/sbk Sandy clay loam/sbk 2.2.2 Chronology of Impacts There are no identified archeological or historical preservation sites located within the project area. The land outside of the easement is used by the property owners for growing crops, grazing cattle, and raising chickens. Cattle were totally fenced out of the stream when the easement was finalized for the site. The 4 strand high tensile fencing was completed in 2009. Steep slopes to the south and east of the stream have prevented extensive vegetation clearing. To the west and north of the stream, the land has been cleared and has been used for grazing cattle. Most of the current cleared area is outside of the conservation easement and will remain open for grazing cattle. Historic aerials were examined for any information about how the site hydrology and vegetation have changed over recent history. The reviewed aerials are found in Figure 2.8. Historic aerials were obtained from the USGS EarthExplorer and NC OneMap for 1950, 1964, 1973, 1980, 1993, 2007, 2010, and 2014. An abbreviated chronology of impacts can be described as follows: 1950 — The western field was cleared earlier than 1950. The stream channel is mostly forested but has been impacted by a crossing. 1973 —The forest was cleared from the southern side of the field to the northern bank of Mt. Pleasant Creek. No changes to the streams are apparent. 1993 — The chicken houses southeast of the project were constructed. No other impacts to the streams are visible. 2007 — Fields were cleared along the stream confluence directly upstream of the project area. 2014 — The vegetation shows signs of natural regeneration from the southern side of the field to the northern bank of Mt. Pleasant Creek.

Pleasant Creek Restoration Project The site is part of the 03030003020010 USGS Cataloging Unit (Sandy Creek) within the Cape Fear River Basin. The watershed for the Mt. Pleasant Creek project is comprised of 5.24 square miles at the downstream limit. The watershed consists mainly of forested land with some land cleared for agriculture and livestock. This area is experiencing increasing residential development, but remains predominantly rural in nature. The majority of the impervious surface within the project watershed comes from roads, residential homes, and livestock houses and amounts to approximately 1% of the total area of the project watershed. The site receives flow from Mt. Pleasant Creek (DWR Stream Index Number 17-16-3) and UT to Mt. Pleasant Creek. Mt. Pleasant Creek leaves the project area and flows into Sandy Creek approximately 2.5 river miles (RM) past the downstream project limits. Sandy Creek flows into the Deep River approximately 4 RM downstream of its confluence with Mt. Pleasant Creek, under Highways 64/49 just west of the town of Ramseur. The nearest Significant Natural Heritage Area (SNHA) is the CPF/Sandy Creek Aquatic Habitat area, located approximately 2.5 miles downstream of the project site. There are no conservation or protected areas located adjacent to the project site. 4.2 Reach Summary Information Existing Conditions The land outside of the conservation easement is used by the project landowners for growing crops, grazing cattle, and raising chickens. Cattle were totally fenced out of the stream when the easement was finalized for the site. The 4 strand high tensile fencing was completed in 2009. To the west and north of the project stream, the land had been cleared and used for grazing cattle. Most of the historically cleared area is outside of the conservation easement and will remain open for grazing cattle. Steep slopes to the south and east of the stream prevented extensive vegetation clearing in those areas. The project reach of Mt. Pleasant Creek enters the property on the northern end and flows approximately 1,886 feet before exiting the property at the southwestern corner. The stream condition varies throughout the length of the project reach, with a trend of greater instability towards the top of the project reach and increasing stability in the downstream portion of channel. Overall the channel has a moderate, but varied width -to -depth ratio that averages just over 12. The system is moderately incised, with bank height ratios ranging from 1.2 - 1.7, and entrenchment ratios greater than 3 throughout. A natural bedrock waterfall is located approximately 125 feet upstream of the project site. The existing channel between the rock waterfall and the beginning of the project is wooded and in stable condition. At the beginning of the project, the channel becomes slightly incised. This upper portion of the channel exhibits signs of instability as evidenced by a series of eroding banks. Many of the banks in the upper half are nearly vertical and devoid of vegetation. The upper segment is also impacted by an unstable stream crossing and historic cattle traffic. After the upper 750 linear feet of the project reach, the stream begins to show increased signs of stability. The downstream portion of channel still has some lengths of bank that are unvegetated and undercut, but the rate of change appears to be low and the isolated areas of erosion are not as systemically widespread as in the upper portion of the channel. Overall, the lower reach is stable. October 2015 16 Mitigation Plan Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project The existing vegetation along Mt. Pleasant Creek consists of tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), hackberry (Celtis laevigata), box elder (Acer negundo), American elm (Ulmus americana), red maple (Acer rubrum), and black walnut (Juglans nigra). Sub -canopy and shrub species include ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), pawpaw (Asimina triloba), box elder, tag alder (Alnus serrulata), elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), and painted buckeye (Aesculus sylvatica). The herbaceous layer includes yellow crownbeard (Verbesina occidentalis), Japanese stilt grass (Microstegium vimineum), Christmas fern (Polystichum acrostichoides), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), greenbriars (Smilax spp.), violets (Viola spp.), Southern trout lily (Erythronium umbilicatum spp. umbilicatum), and spring beauty (Claytonia virginica). Former cattle disturbed areas are scattered throughout the project area. The Mt. Pleasant Creek Site was intermittently grazed and as a result is undergoing various stages of succession. The disturbed areas are dominated by fescue (Festuca spp.), little bluestem (Schizachyrium spp.), and other grasses. There is a sparse scattering of immature canopy and sub -canopy species such as black walnut (Juglans nigra), loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), sweet gum, box elder, and Eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana) in these open areas. Shrub and herbaceous species such as multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) are present, especially along fence lines and transitional margins. The segment of Mt. Pleasant Creek being enhanced was mapped and named by the USGS, indicating a perennial stream. For this reason, a NCDWQ Stream Classification evaluation was not necessary for the project reach of Mt. Pleasant Creek. 4.3 Regulatory Considerations Following the completion of the mitigation plan, a pre -construction notification (PCN) will be completed to apply for a Nationwide 27 Permit (NWP) to comply with Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act with the Wilmington District of the US Army Corps of Engineers and the NCDENR Division of Water Resources.

Pleasant Creek Restoration Project 6.0 MITIGATION WORK PLAN 6.1 Target Stream Type and Plant Communities The project involves enhancement through stabilization of the stream by installation of soil lifts, upgrading an existing rock ford crossing, and installation of a constructed riffle consistent with the C4 - type stream in the upper reach (Enhancement 1). Invasive species such as multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) are present but are not widespread. The condition of the invasive species will be re-evaluated at Year 3. Any areas that have a low density of existing vegetation will be supplementally planted with the species listed below. Trees and shrubs will be planted to establish overall stocking levels (8 feet x 8 feet spacing). Woody vegetation planting will be conducted during dormancy. Species to be planted may consist of the following and any substitutions from the planting plan will be taken from this list: Bottomland Hardwood Forest —1.23 acres Common Name Scientific Name River Birch Silky Dogwood Swamp Chestnut Oak American Sycamore Arrowwood viburnum Betula nigra Cornus amomum Quercus michauxii Platanus occidentalis Viburnum dentatum Wetland Status (Eastern Mts & Piedmont) FACW FACW FACW FACW FAC DMS expects some natural regeneration of native successional species such as sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), red maple (Acer rubrum), and loblolly pine (Pinus taeda). A custom herbaceous seed mix will also be developed and used to further stabilize the stream and buffer areas. 6.2 Design Parameters The mitigation approach for the project will aim to improve a stream ecosystem that will provide both water quality and wildlife habitat benefits to the Cape Fear River Basin. The DMS's needs for mitigation in this basin will be achieved by the improvement of a stream complex with 1,866 If of stream enhancement and 1.85 acres of vegetated buffer. Figures 6.4 and 6.5 show the mitigation type and extent. The proposed project conditions are shown in Section 6.4 and Appendix C. Stream Enhancement I — 705 If Enhancement I will occur in the upper section of the stream where the stream bed and banks will be stabilized by construction activities. The upper section of stream will be enhanced through the placement of soil lifts and the installation of riffle structures at critical points along the channel. This area has also had cattle excluded from the project area when the easement was finalized (June 26, 2006). In the project plan sheets (Appendix C, Sheet 3), there is a design for the typical soil lifts that will be installed in the upper segment of Mt. Pleasant Creek. Additional in -stream structures, including structural stone to reinforce the existing rock ford crossing and installation of a constructed riffle with soil lifts, will be used to stabilize the channel (Appendix C). These structures are designed to reduce bank erosion, influence secondary circulation in the near -bank region of stream bends, and provide grade control. During construction, the number of mature trees removed from the existing riparian areas will October 2015 19 Mitigation Plan Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project be minimized as much as possible. Any valuable trees that may provide immediate shade to the restored channel will be left in place if feasible. Stream Enhancement 11— 871 If The Enhancement II mitigation strategy in the lower section of the stream will result from cattle exclusion from the entire project, and buffer restoration activities, including planting and invasive treatments. The lower section of Mt. Pleasant Creek will also be enhanced by the placement of the stream in a perpetual conservation easement, and positive downstream effects due to improvements of the upper segment (see above). Stream Preservation — 2901f The lower section of Mt. Pleasant Creek will be preserved by the placement of the stream in a perpetual conservation easement Riparian Buffer Restoration — 56,033 square feet Riparian buffer restoration areas consist of riparian zone sites (within 200 feet from Mt. Pleasant Creek top of bank) that are characterized by either an absence of trees or only scattered individual trees such that the tree canopy is less than 25 percent of the cover and by a lack of dense growth of smaller woody stems (i.e., shrubs or saplings). These areas will be planted with the bottomland hardwood forest community as described in Section 6.1 and as shown on the planting plan in Appendix C. One area, located south of the pasture and north of Mt. Pleasant Creek and measuring 0.63 acres (27,443 square feet), was previously cleared and maintained as cleared, but has been allowed to naturally regenerate since the conservation easement was established (refer to Figure 2.8). Riparian Buffer Enhancement — 25,069 square feet Riparian buffer enhancement areas consist of riparian zone sites that are characterized by conditions between that of a restoration site and a preservation site such that the establishment of woody stems (i.e., tree or shrub species) will maximize nutrient removal and other buffer functions. These areas will be planted with the native deciduous trees and shrubs as described in Section 6.1 and as shown on the planting plan in Appendix C. Riparian Buffer Preservation —173,524 square feet Riparian buffer preservation areas consist of riparian zone sites that are characterized by a natural forest consisting of the forest strata and diversity of species appropriate for the local ecoregion. No planting activities will be conducted in these areas, and they will be preserved within the site easement. The riparian buffer sites have been additionally categorized based off of the distance measured from the top of bank of Mt. Pleasant Creek. The table below shows the anticipated measurements.

Area was reduced to 10% for 100-200', equivalent to 25,463 square feet. 6.3 Data Analysis Given that this project consists of only stream enhancement, the data collection and analysis was limited as appropriate for this level of mitigation. Previous data collected by others at this site included six cross-sectional survey measurements to characterize the nature of the existing channel. The representative cross-sections have been included within this report (Appendix B). The majority of the cross-sections have bank height ratios close to 1.5 or less, with the exception of Cross -Section 5, which has a bank height ratio closer to 2.0. While there is variation throughout the site, the locations of these cross-sections do not show significant signs of instability. This indicates that the stream and the landscape are resilient enough to maintain stability, even with sub -optimal channel morphology. The areas that are targeted for repair have bank height ratios between 1.5 and 2.0 due to local influences, such as lack of vegetation and planform geometry, which have resulted in this portion of the channel showing signs of instability. For this reason, the mitigation approach is targeted at correcting these local influences through an enhancement approach. Instead of changing the complete character of the channel, the enhancement is making small planform adjustments to soften tight meander bends and stabilizing banks with soil lifts that will be immediately stable and also rapidly vegetate to create rooting strength in the banks for long term stability. The repairs will also replicate the cross-sectional dimensions found in the other stable reaches of the project, adding benches where feasible to create bank height rations of 1.0.

Pleasant Creek Restoration Project The site will be monitored on a regular basis, with a physical inspection of the site conducted a minimum of once per year throughout the post -construction monitoring period until performance standards are met. These site inspections may identify site components and features that require routine maintenance. Routine maintenance should be expected most often in the first two years following site construction and may include the following: Component/Feature Maintenance Through Project Close -Out Routine channel maintenance and repair activities may include securing of loose coir Stream matting and supplemental installations of live stakes and other target vegetation along the channel. Areas where stormwater and floodplain flows intercept the channel may also require maintenance to prevent bank failures and head -cutting. Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted plant community. Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include Vegetation supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. Exotic invasive plant species shall be controlled by mechanical and/or chemical methods. Any vegetation control requiring herbicide application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations. Site boundaries shall be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction between the mitigation site and adjacent properties. Boundaries may be identified by fence, marker, Site Boundary bollard, post, tree -blazing, or other means as allowed by site conditions and/or conservation easement. Boundary markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be repaired and/or replaced on an as needed basis. 8.0 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS Monitoring of the Mt. Pleasant Creek Project shall consist of the collection and analysis of stream stability and riparian/stream bank vegetation survivability data to support the evaluation of the project in meeting established objectives. Specifically, project success will be assessed utilizing measurements of stream stability, site photographs, and vegetation sampling. Stream Stream performance standards are based on 2003 Stream Mitigation Guidelines for determination of channel stability and vegetative success. Stream stability will be documented through 1) annual visual assessment 2) demonstration of bankfull events, 3) stream photo points and 4) monitoring three cross- sections (for the Enhancement I section only). 1) Visual Assessment An annual site walk will be conducted at the end of each monitoring period to document any stream problem areas. Specific problem areas that could arise include excessive bank erosion, bed deposition or aggradation, or problems with the installed structures. During site walks, any areas of invasive species problems, tree and shrub mortality issues, or other problem areas will be noted. The findings of the visual assessment as well as any recommended corrective actions for problem areas will be summarized in the monitoring reports by way of a Current Conditions Plan View figure. October 2015 24 Mitigation Plan Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project 2) Verification of Bankfull Events During the monitoring period, a minimum of two bankfull events must be recorded within the five- year monitoring period. These two bankfull events must occur in separate monitoring years. Bankfull events will be verified using an automatic stream monitoring gauge to record daily stream depth readings. 3) Photograph Reference Points Permanent photograph reference points will be established to assist in characterizing the site and to allow qualitative evaluation of the site conditions. The location and bearing/orientation of each photo point will be documented to allow for repeated use. 4) Dimension Permanent cross-sections will be established along Mt. Pleasant Creek and will be used to evaluate stream dimension stability. This will include one cross-section in the constructed riffle to evaluate the stability of this structure and then two cross-sections in other locations where the banks were stabilized with soil lifts. Permanent monuments will be established at the left and right extents of each cross-section by either conventional survey or GPS. The cross-section surveys shall provide a detailed measurement of the stream and banks and will include points on the adjacent floodplain or valley, at the top of bank, bankfull, at all breaks in slope, the edge of water, and thalweg. Width/depth and entrenchment ratios will be calculated for each cross-section based on the survey data. Cross-section measurements should show little or no change from the as -built cross-sections. If changes do occur, they will be evaluated to determine whether they are minor adjustments associated with settling and increased stability or whether they indicate movement toward an unstable condition. Vegetation Performance standards are established to verify that the vegetation component supports community elements necessary for forest development and the maintenance of diffuse flow through the riparian buffer in accordance with North Carolina Division of Water Resources Administrative Code 15A NCAC 0213.0295 (Mitigation Program Requirements for Protection and Maintenance of Riparian Buffers) (NCDWR 2014 Temporary Rule). Performance standards are dependent upon the density and growth of characteristic forest species. After five years of monitoring, an average density of 260 woody stems per acre must be surviving and diffuse flow maintained. If monitoring indicates that the specified survival rate is not being met, appropriate corrective actions will take place, which may include invasive species control, the removal of dead/dying plants and replanting. 9.0 MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Annual monitoring data will be reported using the DMS monitoring template. The monitoring report shall provide a project data chronology that will facilitate an understanding of project status and trends, population of DMS databases for analysis, research purposes, and assist in decision making regarding project close-out.

Monitoring shall subsequently be conducted annually for a total period of five years or until the project meets its success criteria. Monitoring of site restoration efforts will be performed for five years or until performance standards are met. After planting has been completed in winter or early spring, initial plant stocking will be performed to verify planting methods and to determine initial species composition and density. To monitor the vegetation at this site, the NC Division of Mitigation Services will use a combination of visual monitoring and random vegetation plots to cover 2% of the planted area. Visual monitoring will be conducted to assess vegetative cover, diffuse flow and easement integrity. DMS will monitor three (3) rotating, random 1,500 square foot vegetation plots in the planted area. These plots will be located in the 1.23 acre planted area, providing >5% coverage in that area. In each sample plot, monitoring parameters will include species composition and density. The plots will be randomly selected using a grid and random number generator (or similar method) for each of the monitoring year. Visual observations of the percent cover of shrub and herbaceous species, diffuse flow and easement integrity will be documented by photograph and site visits. Photograph reference points (PRPs) will be established to assist in characterizing the site and to allow qualitative evaluation of the site conditions. The location of each photo point will be marked in the monitoring plan and the bearing/orientation of the photograph will be documented. Annual monitoring reports will be prepared and submitted after all monitoring tasks for each year are completed. The report will document the monitored components and include all collected data, analyses, and photographs. Each report will provide the new monitoring data and compare the most recent results against previous findings. The monitoring report format will be similar to that set out in the most recent DMS monitoring protocol. 10.0 LONG-TERM MANAGEMENT PLAN Upon approval for close-out by the Interagency Review Team (IRT), the sites will be transferred to the NCDOT Stewardship Program. This party shall be responsible for periodic inspection of the sites to ensure that restrictions required in the conservation easement are upheld. October 2015 26 Mitigation Plan 11.0 ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT PLAN Mt. Pleasant Creek Restoration Project Upon completion of site construction DMS will implement the post -construction monitoring protocols previously defined in this document. Project maintenance will be performed as described previously in this document. If, during the course of annual monitoring it is determined the site's ability to achieve site performance standards are jeopardized, DMS will notify the USACE of the need to develop a Plan of Corrective Action. The Plan of Corrective Action may be prepared using in-house technical staff or may require engineering and consulting services. Once the Corrective Action Plan is prepared and finalized DMS will: 1. Notify the USACE as required by the Nationwide 27 permit general conditions. 2. Revise performance standards, maintenance requirements, and monitoring requirements as necessary and/or required by the USACE. 3. Obtain other permits as necessary. 4. Implement the Corrective Action Plan. 5. Provide the USACE a Record Drawing of Corrective Actions. This document shall depict the extent and nature of the work performed.

Dear Ms. Deaton, The purpose of this letter is to request review and comment on any possible issues that might emerge with respect to fish and wildlife issues associated with a potential wetland and stream restoration project on the Bowman site. The Bowman site has been identified for the purpose of providing in-kind mitigation for unavoidable stream channel and/or wetland impacts. Several sections of channel have been identified as significantly degraded. 1,700 linear feet of stream restoration and 200 linear feet of stream enhancement of Mount Pleasant Creek are proposed (Figure 1). We thank you in advance for your timely response and cooperation. Please feel free to contact us with any questions that you may have concerning the extent of site disturbance associated with this project.

Box 33726 Raleigh, NC 33726 410-B Millstone Drive Hillsborough, NC 27278 (919) 732-1300 November 16, 2007 Subject: EEP Stream mitigation project (Bowman Site) on Mount Pleasant Creek, Randolph County, North Carolina Dear Mr. Suiter, The purpose of this letter is to notify you of activities occurring in Randolph County on the Bowman site stream mitigation project. The Bowman site has been identified for the purpose of providing in-kind mitigation for unavoidable stream channel impacts. A total of 1,700 linear feet of stream restoration and 200 linear feet of stream enhancement of Mount Pleasant Creek are proposed (Figure 1). Two endangered species, Schweinitz's sunflower and the Cape Fear shiner, are known to occur in Randolph County (http://149.168.1.196/nhp/find.php and http://www.fws.gov/nc-es/es/countyfr.httnl). Potential project -related impacts to these two species were evaluated in the Restoration Plan to be submitted to the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) for this project. These findings are summarized below and provided for your information. Biological Conclusion Schweinitz's sunflower: No Effect Potential habitat exists for Schweinitz's sunflower on the Bowman site along pasture and road edges but not in the proposed area of impact of stream restoration activities. Surveys were conducted on September 24, 2007, by Kate Montieth and Jennifer Logan of The Catena Group and no plants were found. The nearest known population of Schweinitz's sunflower is over 8 miles away northeast of Asheboro. Given the fact that potential habitat on the site is outside of the area of impact and the fact that no individuals were found during surveys, it can be concluded that the proposed stream mitigation project will have "No Effect" on Schweinitz's sunflower. Biological Conclusion Cape Fear shiner: No Effect The Cape Fear Shiner is limited primarily to small stretches of the Deep, Haw, and Rocky Rivers of the Cape Fear River basin (USFWS 1988). The most recent data on the Cape Fear shiner population in the Deep River indicate that it is not currently known upstream of the Coleridge dam on the Deep River. Mount Pleasant Creek, a tributary in the Deep River watershed above Coleridge dam, flows through the Bowman site. This portion of the stream is fairly narrow and shallow and does not contain habitat elements (shallow rocky shoals) typical of the water bodies where the Cape Fear Shiner is currently known to occur. Mount Pleasant Creek flows into Sandy Creek which is dammed shortly before its confluence with the Deep River. There is an additional dam on the Deep River in Ramseur, upstream of the Coleridge dam. Although the Cape Fear shiner is reported to utilize smaller tributaries during high water periods in winter months (http://www.fws.gov/nc-es/fish/CFS Fact_Sheetl .pdf), the presence of the dam on Sandy Creek, as well as the two dams on the Deep River (Ramseur and Coleridge) would restrict the species from utilizing the stream in the project area. Based on the lack of typical habitat and the presence of barriers between occupied habitat and the project area, it can be concluded that the proposed stream mitigation project will have "No Effect" on the Cape Fear shiner. Additionally, please provide comments on any possible issues that might emerge with respect to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) or the Fish & Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) from the construction of the stream restoration project on the subject property. If we have not heard from you in 30 days we will assume that you do not have any comments regarding associated laws and that you do not have any other information relevant to this project at the current time. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have concerning the extent of site disturbance associated with this project.
