Re: Certification Pursuant to Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act,
Modification to the improvements to US 17 (including a New Bridge over the Chowan River) from
west of the Chowan River to west of US 17 Business, east of Edenton in Bertie and Chowan Counties,
TIP R-2512A, State Project No. 8.T010602, WQC Project No. 000257 (DWQ No. for original
application 960280).
This is to notify you that the requested modification to Certification No. 3066 issued to the North
Carolina Department of Transportation on May 21, 1996 is not necessary. The proposed action of
placing old bridge decking onto existing authorized pilings will result in impacts to coastal wetlands as
a result of shading. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality does not regulate impacts to coastal
wetlands due to shading. Therefore, the original 401 Water Quality Certification dated May 21, 1996
and all other corresponding modifications still apply. However, no modification to the existing
Certification is required to conduct the proposed activity. Should you require additional assistance or
information, please contact John Hennessy at 919-733-5694.
Sincerely,
Modification to WQC No. 3066

SUBJECT: Request to Modify Department of the Army Permit No. 199400991

Business, East of Edenton; Bertie & Chowan Counties; TIP No. R-
2512A; State Project No. &TO10602
As per your discussions with Deputy Secretary Roger Sheats of North Carolina
Department of Transportation (NCDOT), the NCDOT requests that the existing
Department of Army (DOA) Permit be modified to authorize the placement of dismantled
sections of the old US 17 bridge on existing, non-regulated, pilings over waters of the
United States, including wetlands. Please reference the attached letter from your agency,
dated March 12, 1988, which approves the landowner/contractor's request to install pile
supported structures over jurisdictional areas.
Placement of dismantled bridge sections on permitted pilings over jurisdictional areas
As you are aware, the Department's contractor has placed concrete bridge sections
onto pilings over jurisdictional areas. Subsequently, the NCDOT was cited for violating C
special conditions a and b of Permit No. 199400991. Please reference a previous requester
for modification of this permit dated October 18, 1999.
The NCDOT recognizes that the contractor has been previously notified by your
agency that the placement of material on the site was not a regulated activity. However,
the Department also recognizes that the permit to construct a new bridge over the
Chowan River and to remove the old structure prohibits the placement of waste material
into jurisdictional areas unless approved by a modification to the referenced permit. The
Department requests that the existing DOA permit be modified to authorize the recycling
of concrete bridge sections onto previously approved, non-regulated pilings in waters of
the United States, including wetlands. Each section will be approximately 10.0' x 26.0'.

Total wetland area covered by the bridge sections will be 1.96 acres. Total surface

request and as depicted in the attached drawings. The remaining material that is currently
being stored on high ground is the property of the contractor and the contractor maintains
sole responsibility for this material. Any subsequent uses of any bridge material
associated with this project within jurisdictional areas will be the responsibility of the
contractor. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to obtain any and all regulatory
authorizations for such use. The NCDOT will not request further modification to this
permit to place bridge material in jurisdictional areas. As a condition, the NCDOT will
not be accountable for use of the material in waters of the United states. _
By copy of this letter, we request that the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality, modify the appropriate
Water Quality Certification. A check in the amount of $475.00 is included to cover the
processing fee.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact
Mr. Lindsey Riddick at [phone] extension 304. The Department feels that this is
an excellent opportunity to recycle salvaged construction materials. Your assistance in
expediting approval of this modification request is appreciated. If you have questions or
concerns, please don't hesitate to call.

Dear Mr. Waff:
Thank you for your recent follow-up letter to our telephone
-conversation concerning your proposed construction of a pile
supported structure over wetlands adjacent to the Chowan River, at
your business on U.S. 17 near Edenton, Chowan County, North
Carolina.
Provided that no fill material of any kind is placed in
wetlands, no authorization for this work is required.from our
office. Should the project involve the construction of the
building (such as a boat basin) over any part of the Chowan River
or one of its tributaries or connections, you would first need to
obtain Department of the Army authorization from this office.
Please be aware that this does not relieve you of the necessity of
obtaining any required state or local authorization.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please
contact Mr. Richter at [phone] and he will gladly assist
you in any way he can. Thank you for your cooperation with our
permits program.

As per your discussions with Deputy Secretary Roger Sheats of North Carolina
Department of Transportation (NCDOT), the NCDOT requests that the existing
Department of Army (DOA) Permit be modified to authorize the placement of dismantled
sections of the old US 17 bridge on existing, non-regulated, pilings over waters of the
United States, including wetlands. Please reference the attached letter from your agency,
dated March 12, 1988, which approves the landowner/contractor's request to install pile
supported structures over jurisdictional areas.
Placement of dismantled bridge sections on permitted pilings over jurisdictional areas
As you are aware, the Department's contractor has placed concrete bridge sections
onto pilings over jurisdictional areas. Subsequently; the NCDOT was cited for violating
special conditions a and b of Permit No. 199400991. Please reference a previous request

The NCDOT recognizes that the contractor has been previously notified by your
agency that the placement of material on the site was not a regulated activity. However,
the Department also recognizes that the permit to construct a new bridge over the
Chowan River and to remove the old structure prohibits the placement of waste material
into jurisdictional areas unless approved by a modification to the referenced permit. The
Department requests that the existing DOA permit be modified to authorize the recycling
of concrete bridge sections onto previously approved, non-regulated pilings in waters of
the United States, including wetlands. Each section will be approximately 10.0' x 26.0'.

Total wetland area covered by the bridge sections will be 1.96 acres. Total surface
waters covered by the bridge sections will be 0.84 acres. Drawings of the proposed site
are attached.
.. The Department recognizes that this activity will produce shade over the 2.8
acres. However, the hydrologic function will remain intact and the soil will not be
compacted or filled. The bridge sections will be placed by crane from existing access
roads. Additionally, the area will not be shaded entirely as the concrete will be elevated.
Any required compensatory mitigation will be provided by the property owner/contractor
(Waff Construction Co.). The contractor will provide specifics about the mitigation
directly to the USACE and all issues regarding compensatory mitigation should be
coordinated between the USACE and the contractor.
This modification is intended only to encompass the area previously requested by
the contractor to be used as a storage area as noted in the October 18, 1999 modification

Thank you for your recent follow-up letter to our telephone
-conversation concerning your proposed construction of a pile
supported structure.over wetlands adjacent to the Chowan River, at
your business on U.S. 17 near Edenton, Chowan County, North

PAYMENT
RECEIVED
SUBJECT: Request to Modify Department of the Army Permit No. 199400991
for: Proposed Improvements to US-17 (Including a New Bridge Over the
Chowan River) from West of the Chowan River to West of US-17
Business, East of Edenton; Bertie & Chowan Counties; TIP No. R-
2512A; State Project No. 8.T010602
As per your discussions with Deputy Secretary Roger Sheats of North Carolina
Department of Transportation (NCDOT), the NCDOT requests that the existing
Department of Army (DOA) Permit be modified to authorize the placement of dismantled
sections of the old US 17 bridge on existing, non-regulated, pilings over waters of the
United States, including wetlands. Please reference the attached letter from your agency,
dated March 12, 1988, which approves the landowner/contractor's request to install pile
supported structures over jurisdictional areas.
Placement of dismantled bridge sections on permitted pilin sg over jurisdictional areas
As you are aware, the Department's contractor has placed concrete bridge sections
onto pilings over jurisdictional areas. Subsequently; the NCDOT was cited for violating
special conditions a and b of Permit No. 199400991. Please reference a previous request
for modification of this permit dated October 18, 1999.
The NCDOT recognizes that the contractor has been previously notified by your
agency that the placement of material on the site was not a regulated activity. However,
the Department also recognizes that the permit to construct a new bridge over the
Chowan River and to remove the old structure prohibits the placement of waste material
into jurisdictional areas unless approved by a modification to the referenced permit. The
Department requests that the existing DOA permit be modified to authorize the recycling
of concrete bridge sections onto previously approved, non-regulated pilings in waters of
the United States, including wetlands. Each section will be approximately 10.0' x 26.0'.

Total wetland area covered by the bridge sections will be 1.96 acres. Total surface
waters covered by the bridge sections will be 0.84 acres. Drawings of the proposed site
are attached.
. The. Department recognizes that this activity will produce shade over the 2.8
acres. However, the hydrologic function will remain intact and the soil will not be
compacted or filled. The bridge sections will be placed by crane from existing access
roads. Additionally, the area will not be shaded entirely as the concrete will be elevated.
Any required compensatory mitigation will be provided by the property owner/contractor
(Waff Construction Co.). The contractor will provide specifics about the mitigation
directly to,the USACE and all issues regarding compensatory mitigation should be
coordinated between the USACE and the contractor.
This modification is intended only to encompass the area previously requested by
the contractor to be used as a storage area as noted in the October 18, 1999 modification
request and as depicted in the attached drawings. The remaining material that is currently
being stored on high ground is the property of the contractor and the contractor maintains
sole responsibility for this material. Any subsequent uses of any bridge material
associated with this project within jurisdictional areas will be the responsibility of the
contractor. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to obtain any and all regulatory
authorizations for such use. The NCDOT will not request further modification to this
permit to place bridge material in jurisdictional areas. As a condition, the NCDOT will
not be accountable for use of the material in waters of the United states.
By copy of this letter, we request that the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality, modify the appropriate
Water Quality Certification. A check in the amount of $475.00 is included to cover the
processing fee.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact
Mr. Lindsey Riddick at [phone] extension 304. The Department feels that this is
an excellent opportunity to recycle salvaged construction materials. Your assistance in
expediting approval of this modification request is appreciated. If you have questions or
concerns, please don't hesitate to call.

Dear Mr. Waff:
Thank you for your recent follow-up letter to our telephone
-conversation concerning your proposed construction of a pile
supported structure over wetlands adjacent to the Chowan River, at
your business on U.S. 17 near Edenton, Chowan County, North
Carolina.
Provided that no fill material of any kind is placed in
wetlands, no authorization for this work is required from our
office. Should the project involve the construction of the
building (such as a boat basin) over any part of the Chowan River
or one of its tributaries or connections, you would first need to
obtain Department of the Army authorization from this office.
Please be aware that this does not relieve you of the necessity of
obtaining any required state or local authorization.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please
contact Mr. Richter at [phone] and he will gladly assist
you in any way he can. Thank you for your cooperation with our
permits program.
Sincerely,

RECEIVED
SUBJECT: Request to Modify Department of the Army Permit No. 199400991
for: Proposed Improvements to US-17 (Including a New Bridge Over the
Chowan River) from West of the Chowan River to West of US-17
Business, East of Edenton; Bertie & Chowan Counties; TIP No. R-
2512A; State Project No. 8.T010602
As per your discussions with Deputy Secretary Roger Sheats of North Carolina
Department of Transportation (NCDOT), the NCDOT requests that the existing
Department of Army (DOA) Permit be modified to authorize the placement of dismantled
sections of the old US 17 bridge on existing, non-regulated, pilings over waters of the
United States, including wetlands. Please reference the attached letter from your agency,
dated March 12, 1988, which approves the landowner/contractor's request to install pile
supported structures over jurisdictional areas.
Placement of dismantled bridge sections on permitted pilin sg_ over jurisdictional areas
As you are aware, the Department's contractor has placed concrete bridge sections
onto pilings over jurisdictional areas. Subsequently; the NCDOT was cited for violating
special conditions a and b of Permit No. 199400991. Please reference a previous request
for modification of this permit dated October 18, 1999.
The NCDOT recognizes that the contractor has been previously notified by your
agency that the placement of material on the site was not a regulated activity. However,
the Department also recognizes that the permit to construct a new bridge over the
Chowan River and to remove the old structure prohibits the placement of waste material
into jurisdictional areas unless approved by a modification to the referenced permit. The
Department requests that the existing DOA permit be modified to authorize the recycling
of concrete bridge sections onto previously approved, non-regulated pilings in waters of
the United States, including wetlands. Each section will be approximately 10.0' x 26.0'.

Total wetland area covered by the bridge sections will be 1.96 acres. Total surface
waters covered by the bridge sections will be 0.84 acres. Drawings of the proposed site
are attached.
. The Department recognizes that this activity will produce shade over the 2.8
acres. However, the hydrologic function will remain intact and the soil will not be
compacted or filled. The bridge sections will be placed by crane from existing access
roads. Additionally, the area will not be shaded entirely as the concrete will be elevated.
Any required compensatory mitigation will be provided by the property owner/contractor
(Waff Construction Co.). The contractor will provide specifics about the mitigation
directly to the USACE and all issues regarding compensatory mitigation should be
coordinated between the USACE and the contractor.
This modification is intended only to encompass the area previously requested by
the contractor to be used as a storage area as noted in the October 18, 1999 modification
request and as depicted in the attached drawings. The remaining material that is currently
being stored on high ground is the property of the contractor and the contractor maintains
sole responsibility for this material. Any subsequent uses of any bridge material
associated with this project within jurisdictional areas will be the responsibility of the
contractor. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to obtain any and all regulatory
authorizations for such use. The NCDOT will not request further modification to this
permit to place bridge material in jurisdictional areas. As a condition, the NCDOT will
not be accountable for use of the material in waters of the United states.
By copy of this letter, we request that the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality, modify the appropriate
Water Quality Certification. A check in the amount of $475.00 is included to cover the
processing fee.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact
Mr. Lindsey Riddick at [phone] extension 304. The Department feels that this is
an excellent opportunity to recycle salvaged construction materials. Your assistance in
expediting approval of this modification request is appreciated. If you have questions or
concerns, please don't hesitate to call.

the additional proposed activities. All the authorized activities and conditions of certification
associated with the original Water Quality Certification dated May 26, 1996 and all other
corresponding modifications still apply. In addition, the Department of Transportation is authorized to
allow leave 600 feet of the existing bridge in place, as described in the permit application dated March
3, 2000.

NORTH CAROLINA 401 WATER QUALITY CERTIFICATION
THIS CERTIFICATION is issued in conformity with the requirements of Section 401 Public Laws 92-
500 and 95-217 of the United States and subject to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
Regulations in 15 NCAC 2H, Section .0500. This certification authorizes the removal of the old Chowan
River Bridge. The removal of the bridge shall adhere to the Corps of Engineers guidelines for "Bridge
Demolition and Removal in Waters of the United States". It should be noted the modification is applicable
only to the additional proposed activities. All the authorized activities and conditions of certification
associated with the original Water Quality Certification dated May 26, 1996 and all other corresponding
modifications still apply. In addition, the Department of Transportation is authorized to allow leave 600
feet of the existing bridge in place, as described in the permit application dated March 3, 2000. All the
authorized activities and conditions of certification associated with the original Water Quality Certification
dated May 26, 1996 still apply.
The application provides adequate assurance that the discharge of fill material into the proposed wetlands in
conjunction with the proposed development will not result in a violation of applicable Water Quality
Standards and discharge guidelines. Therefore, the State of North Carolina certifies that this activity will
not violate the applicable portions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306, 307 of PL 92-500 and PL 95-217 if
conducted in accordance with the application and conditions hereinafter set forth.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you submitted in your application, as described in
the Public Notice. Should your project change, you are required to notify the DWQ and submit a new
application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval
letter, and is thereby responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland fills for this project
(now or in the future exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC
2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to remain valid, you are required to comply with all the
conditions listed below. In addition, you should obtain all other federal, state or local permits before
proceeding with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion control, Coastal
Stormwater, Non-discharge and Water Supply watershed regulations.
Condition(s) of Certification:
Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices which equal or exceed those outlined in the
most recent version of two manuals. Either the "North Carolina Sediment arid Erosion Control
Planning and Design Manual" or the "North Carolina Surface Mining Manual" (available from the
Division of Land Resources in the DEHNR Regional or Central Offices). The control practices
shall be utilized to prevent exceedances of the appropriate turbidity water quality standard (50
NTUs in all fresh water streams and rivers not designated as trout waters; 25 NTUs in all lakes
and reservoirs, and all saltwater classes; and 10 NTUs in trout waters);
2. All sediment and erosion control measures placed in wetlands or waters shall be removed and
the natural grade restored after the Division of Land Resources has released the project;
3. Measures shall be taken to prevent live or fresh concrete from coming into contact with
waters of the state until the concrete has hardened;
4. There shall be no excavation from or waste disposal into jurisdictional wetlands or waters
associated with this permit without appropriate modification of this permit. Should waste or
borrow sites be located in wetlands or stream, compensatory mitigation will be required since it is
a direct impact from road construction activities;
5. No additional compensatory mitigation shall be done in accordance with this modification.
6. All other conditions written into previous Water Quality Certifications for this project still apply.
Violations of any condition herein set forth shall result in revocation of this Certification and may result in
criminal and/or civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions
are made conditions of the Federal 404 and/or coastal Area Management Act Permit. This Certification
shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA permit.

mad ebruary-1,-2000.. Since that time, you informed the NCDOT by
telephone that the referenced certification had expired and that a
new application would be required in order to complete the
removal of the old bridge over the Chowan River.
The Department has previously received authorization to
impact 18.62 acres of 404 wetlands and .22 acres of surface waters.
Mitigation has been provided by preserving 129.8 acres at the
Company Swamp Mitigation Site in Bertie County, by restoring 11.29
acres at the Dismal Swamp Mitigation Site in Gates and Perquimans
Counties, and by restoring 5 acres of wetlands at the Pembroke
Creek mitigation site in Chowan County. All work in jurisdictional

of the support piles for the old bridge in the near future.
Therefore, the Department requests that a new 401
Certification be issued to authorize the removal of the old Chowan
River Bridge. The Department expects all aspects of bridge removal
to be complete by December 31, 2000.
Additionally, The NCDOT also requests authorization to leave a
600.0 feet long section of the old bridge, on the Chowan County
side, in place for recreational purposes. The ownership of the
remaining bridge section will be transferred to Chowan County. The
NCDOT will retain ownership of bridge approaches.
In order to facilitate the removal of the old bridge in a timely
manner, your assistance in expediting approval of this request is
appreciated. Please find enclosed a check for the amount of $475.00
to cover the application fee. If you have questions or concerns,
please don't hesitate to call me.

Please reference the section 401 water Quality certification
issued May 21, 1996. Since that time, the referenced certification has
expired. Therefore, the Department requests that the 410
certification be renewed to allow for additional time to complete
removal of the old Chowan River Bridge. The Department expects all
aspects of bridge removal to be complete by December 31, 2000.
However, to avoid the potential for additional renewal requests, the
Department asks that the extension run through June 30, 2001.

Please reference the Section 401 Water Quality Certification

However, to avoid the potential for additional renewal requests, the

Demolition subcontract
Sub: Mitigation for use of reclaimed materials
Dear Mr. Hennessey:
With reference to our conversations with you and John Dorney, please find attached for
your review the NCDOT response to our reclamation proposal.
We are at a loss to understand why mitigation is required for the storage and or reuse of
this material. We have current NCDENR and USACOE permits for relieving platforms over
wetlands. Our reclamation proposal rejected by NCDOT was based on setting a portion of the
bridge decking on existing pilings with all work in full compliance with these existing permits.
The Reclamation Plan, NCDENR and USACOE Permits are also included. We
appreciate your timely review of this matter and look forward to hearing from you.

SUMMARY
The following report summarizes the monitoring activities that have occurred in
the past year at the Pembroke Mitigation Site. Construction began in 1998 and
was finished in 1999. ' This year represents the first growing season for
hydrologic and vegetation monitoring.
The Pembroke Creek Mitigation Site, located in Chowan County, is a bottomland
forest site divided into two areas. The site was constructed to mitigate for the
impacts from the improvements to US 17 in Bertie and Chowan Counties (R-
2512).
Hydrologic data was not collected for the entire 1999 growing season. Specific
factors precluding data collection include: 1) Installation of monitoring wells after
the beginning of the 1999 growing season, 2) Specific monitoring well problems,
including: PCR-2 was not activated until late April; therefore, well data was not
recorded for approximately one month. In March, some of the wells were
"tampered with and had been pulled up at least 4-6 inches. Each of the wells was
reset to the correct depth in April. Despite gaps in data, the success criterion
was still met for hydrology.
One major change in the hydrologic monitoring process is the use of local
weather station rainfall data for the site analysis. The daily rainfall on the well
data graphs is recorded at the Edenton rain gauge, maintained by the NC State
' Climate Office. This data is being used because the existing on-site rainfall
gauges have proven unreliable. These site gauges will be replaced with more
reliable equipment prior to the start of the 2000 growing season.

I I

Pembroke Creek received considerable rainfall during the month of September
due to Hurricanes Dennis, Floyd, and Irene. An additional section in the report
describes the effects of these hurricanes on the site itself.
Hydrologic monitoring indicated that both sites have met success criteria.
Vegetation data meet all established success criteria.
Based on the monitoring results from the 1999 growing season, NCDOT
recommends that monitoring continue.

7.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description

n

11

The site is located adjacent to US 17 in Chowan County (Figure 1). Designed as
a bottomland forest, it is to mitigate for the effects of the improvements to US 17
in Bertie and Chowan Counties (R-2512).
1.2 Purpose
In order to demonstrate successful mitigation, hydrologic and vegetative
monitoring must be conducted for a minimum of three years. Success criteria
are based on federal guidelines for wetland mitigation. These guidelines
stipulate criteria for both hydrologic conditions and vegetation survival. The
following report details the results of hydrologic and vegetation monitoring during
the 1999 growing season at the Pembroke Creek Mitigation Site. Included in this
report are analyses of both hydrologic and vegetative monitoring results as well
as local climate conditions throughout the growing season. The vegetation
planted represents Phase I and Phase 2 of the project's construction. Hydrologic
monitoring of the site began in March of 1999.

2.0 HYDROLOGY
2.1 Success Criteria
' In accordance with federal guidelines for wetland mitigation, a site meets
hydrologic criteria if it is inundated or saturated (within 12" of the surface) by
surface or ground water for at least 12.5% of the growing season. However,
' discussions between NCDOT and natural resource agencies have determined
that, due to the unique character of this site, the normal guidelines for hydrologic
success may not apply. Groundwater levels may vary significantly on a daily
' basis due to a sandy substrate that is in close proximity to a tidally influenced
body of water.
' The growing season in Chowan County begins March 13 and ends December 1.
These dates correspond to a 50% probability that air temperatures will drop to
28° or lower after March 13 and before December 1.' Thus the growing season
' is 262 days; optimum wetland hydrology requires 12.5% of this growing season,
or 32 days. The site must also experience average climatic conditions in order
for the hydrologic data to be considered valid.
2.2 Hydrologic Description
Eight monitoring wells, one rain gauge, and one surface water gauge were
installed on site in February 1999 and data was recorded starting in March 1999
' (Figure 2). The automatic monitoring wells and rain gauges record the depth to
groundwater and rainfall, respectively. Data was collected on a daily basis
throughout the growing season.
Appendix A contains a plot of the water depth for each monitoring well and
surface water gauge in 1999. Precipitation events are included on each graph as
' bars. Though a rain gauge was installed on the site, the daily rainfall events on
the graphs were recorded at an Edenton, NC weather station. This data is being
used because the existing on-site rainfall gauges have proven unreliable. The
' site gauge will be replaced with more reliable equipment prior to the start of the
2000 growing season.
' 2.3 Results of Hydrologic Monitoring
2.3.1 Site Data
The largest number of consecutive days in which the groundwater was within
twelve inches of the surface was determined for each well. The number of days
' was then converted into a percentage of the 262-day growing season. Table 1
gives the results for the portion of the 1999 growing season (March 13-August

for the remainder of the growing season (September 1-December 1) after

' Figure 3 is a graphical representation of the hydrologic monitoring results, as
recorded prior to the September hurricanes. It is this hydrologic data, recorded
' between March 13, 1999 and August 31, 1999, which will determine the success
of the site. Groundwater levels recorded after September 1, 1999 were influenced
by extreme weather conditions and should not be used to represent success.

' All of the monitoring wells indicated saturation for the remainder of the growing
season following hurricanes Dennis, Floyd, and Irene. NCDOT realizes that the
hydrologic results in the wake of the September hurricanes will not count toward
' overall monitoring; however, the reaction of the site to large storms is noteworthy.
Specific monitoring well problems: PCR-2 was not activated until late April;
' therefore, well data was not recorded for approximately one month. Just after
installation, some of the wells were tampered with and had been pulled up at
least 4-6 inches. Each of the wells was reset to the correct depth in April.

' Figure 4 is a comparison of 1999 monthly rainfall to historical precipitation for the
Edenton area. Rainfall data recorded at an Edenton weather station during 1999
was compared to the historical 30-70 percentile trends for the area. It is
assumed that if the 1999 rainfall totals, represented by bars, fall between the
average precipitation values for each month, then the local climate was
experiencing average conditions for that particular region. Due to data
availability, only rainfall totals through November 1999 are presented. The 2000
Annual Report will include the rainfall total for December 1999.
' With the exception of July, September, and October, Edenton received below
average monthly rainfall totals.
' 2.4 Conclusions
' All of the monitoring wells indicated saturation for at least 12.5% of the growing
season, even though the months prior to September were, on average, dryer
than normal in the Edenton area.

TOTAL AVERAGE DENSITY 602
To determine tree density, 50' x 50' plots are installed immediately following
planting. The actual numbers of planted trees that occur within the plot are
counted. This number is equated to the number within each plot, which
' represents 680 trees per acre (average). The survival monitoring number is
compared to the planted number to obtain survival percentage. This percentage
is applied to the 680 trees per acre to obtain an estimated tree per acre for the
' site.
Density = monitoring count x 680 (trees per acre)
' planted trees
Notes from Report. Plot 1 - Woolgrass, scirpus, and juncus present. Standing
water in plot; Plot 2 - Volunteer black willow, sycamore, and cattails present. A
few red maples in plot; Plot 3 - Black willow, juncus, cattails, and thick woolgrass
in plot; Plot 4 - Panic grass in plot; Plot 5 - Volunteer sycamores in plot. Juncus,
' fennel, cattails, and grasses in plot; Plot 6 - Juncus, fennel, and cattails in plot.

3.4 Conclusions
' The vegetation monitoring at the end of the first growing season reveals an
average density of 602 trees per acre, which is well above the minimum of 320
trees per acre required by the success criteria.

SUMMARY
The following report summarizes the monitoring activities that have occurred in
the past year at the Pembroke Mitigation Site. In order to demonstrate
successful mitigation, hydrologic and vegetative monitoring must be conducted
for a minimum of five years or until success criteria are fulfilled. Site construction
began in 1998 and was finished in 1999. The year 2001 represents the third
year for hydrology and vegetation monitoring.
The Pembroke Creek Mitigation Site in Chowan County is a bottomland forest
site divided into two areas. The site was constructed to mitigate for the wetland
impacts from the improvements to US 17 in Bertie and Chowan Counties (R-
2512).
Hydrologic success for this site is based on the mean depth to groundwater of
the gauges in the restoration area within 20% of the mean depth to groundwater
of the gauges in the respective reference area. One of the four gauges was
within 20% of reference gauges. Three gauges (PC-1, PC-2, and PC-3) did not
meet this criteria. However, each of the gauges recorded the water table within
12 inches of surface for more than 12.5% of the growing season, which meets
the federal guidelines for hydrologic criteria. Therefore, monitoring from the
2001-growing season indicates hydrologic success. Vegetation data collected
also met all established success criteria for the 2001 season.
Based on the monitoring results from the 2001 growing season, NCDOT will
continue hydrologic monitoring until success criteria are met or enough
information can be collected on the site that appropriate changes can be made to
help in achieving success.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description
The site is located adjacent to US 17 in Chowan County (Figure 1). Designed as
a bottomland forest. The site was constructed to offset impacts of the
improvements to US 17 in Bertie and Chowan Counties (R-2512).
1.2 Purpose
In order to demonstrate successful mitigation, hydrologic, and vegetative
monitoring must be conducted for a minimum of five years. Success criteria are
based on federal guidelines for wetland mitigation. These guidelines stipulate
criteria for both hydrologic conditions and vegetation survival. The following
report details the results of hydrologic and vegetation monitoring during the 2001
growing season at the Pembroke Creek Mitigation Site. Included in this report
are analyses of both hydrologic and vegetative monitoring results as gauge as
local climate conditions throughout the growing season. The vegetation planted
represents Phase I and Phase 2 of the project's construction. Hydrologic
monitoring of the site began in March of 1999.

2.0 Hydrology
2.1 Success Criteria
In accordance with federal guidelines for wetland mitigation, a site meets
hydrologic criteria if it is inundated or saturated (within 12" of the surface) by
surface or ground water for at least 12.5% of the growing season. However,
discussions between NCDOT and natural resource agencies have determined
that, due to the unique character of this site, the normal guidelines for hydrologic
success may not apply. Groundwater levels may vary significantly on a daily
basis due to a sandy substrate that is in close proximity to a tidally influenced
body of water
The growing season in Chowan County begins March 13 and ends December 1.
These dates correspond to a 50% probability that air temperatures will drop to
28° or lower after March 13 and before December 1.' Thus the growing season
is 262 days; optimum wetland hydrology requires 12.5% of this growing season,
or 32 days. The site must also experience average climatic conditions in order
for the hydrologic data to be considered valid.
2.2 Hydrologic Description
Eight monitoring gauges (four site gauges, four reference gauges), one rain
gauge, and one surface water gauge were installed on site in February 1999 and
data was recorded starting in March 1999 (Figure 2). The automatic monitoring
gauges and rain gauges record the depth to groundwater and rainfall,
respectively. Data was collected on a daily basis throughout the growing season.
Appendix A contains a plot of the water depth for each monitoring gauge and
surface water gauge in 2001. Precipitation events are included on each graph as
bars.

2.3 Results of Hydrologic Monitoring
2.3.1 Site Data
The maximum number of consecutive days in which the groundwater was within
twelve inches of the surface was determined for each gauge. The number of
days was then converted into a percentage of the 262-day growing season.
Table 2 gives the results for the 2001 growing season (March 13-December 1).

2.3.2 Climatic Data
Figure 4 is a comparison of 2001 monthly rainfall to historical precipitation for the
Edenton area. Rainfall data recorded onsite during the growing season was
compared to the historical 30-70 percentile trends for the area. It is assumed
that if the 2001 rainfall totals, represented by bars, fall between the average
precipitation values for each month, then the local climate was experiencing
average conditions for that particular region.
As indicated by Figure 4, April, May, and October experienced below normal
rainfall totals. Rainfall in March, July, September, and November fell within the
average range. Rainfall in June and August was above the normal rainfall totals
for those months.

acre for zone 1, 650 trees per acre for zone 2, 566 for zone 3, and 559 trees per
acre for the site's average. All densities are above the minimum of 320 trees per
acre required by the success criteria.

4.0 OVERALL CONCLUSIONS/ RECOMMENDATIONS
Below average precipitation during April and May may have lead to significant
drops in water table depth. Several of the gauges including PC-2 and PCR-2
showed increases in depth to the water table during these months. While the
water table was within 12 inches (for PC-2) for more than 12.5% of the growing
season, it is likely that the number of consecutive days within 12 inches would
have increased had rainfall amounts been closer to average.
PC-1 did not record data during late August through early October due to a dead
battery. Based on water table depth before and after that time frame, as well as
rainfall during that period, it is likely that the number of consecutive days within
12 inches would have increased had the unit been working properly.
Hydrologic success for this site is based on the mean depth to groundwater of
the gauges in the restoration area within 20% of the mean depth to groundwater
of the gauges in the respective reference area. One of the four gauges was
within 20% of reference gauges. Three gauges (PC-1, PC-2, and PC-3) did not
meet this criteria. However, each of the gauges recorded the water table within
12 inches of surface for more than 12.5% of the growing season, which meets
the standard hydrologic criteria. Therefore, monitoring from the 2001-growing
season indicates success in hydrology based on federal guidelines, however
success criteria for this site were not met.
The 2001 vegetation monitoring revealed an average density of 460 trees per
acre for zone 1, 650 trees per acre for zone 2, 566 for zone 3, and 559 trees per
acre for the site's average. All densities are above the minimum of 320 trees per
acre required by the success criteria.
NCDOT intends to continue both hydrologic and vegetation data in 2002.
