The project has been through the public 7 interest review, and a consensus has been reached with regard to the water 3 dependent nature of the project and the lack of feasible alternative sites. Therefore, mitigation, as presented in this document, is proposed to compensate for the unavoidable conversion of approximately 119 acres of Piedmont alluvial forest, Piedmont bottomland forest, and low elevation seep wetlands associated with the construction of the Randleman Reservoir. The wetland and aquatic habitats within the proposed reservoir were delineated and a qualitative assessment and characterization were performed (see wetland maps (Poteat 1993). In addition, biological assessment maps and report was submitted (Carter 1993)). The project area contains a combination of aquatic I and wetland habitats including, river stream channel (245.34 ac), Piedmont alluvial forest wetlands (102 ac), bottomland hardwood forest wetlands (4 ac), and wetland seeps (13 ac). The potential impacts resulting from the conversion of a revised estimate of 314 acres of aquatic and wetland habitats to an open water aquatic habitat have been identified in earlier reports (PTRWA 1990, 1994). 1 d- I 7 d This mitigation plan includes on-site compensatory wetland mitigation and is comprised of wetland creation and preservation, and fish and wildlife habitat enhancement. Compensatory wetland mitigation will consist of creating approximately 380 acres of jurisdictional Piedmont bottomland forest wetlands (680 to 682 ft MSL) from existing fields, pastures, and upland forest. Additionally, 1800+ acres of uplands and wetlands adjacent to the reservoir (682 to 690+ ft MSL) will be protected within a 200 foot buffer zone. Additional areas of Piedmont alluvial forest wetland creation will likely result from seasonally elevated water tables in the 682-684 ft MSL zone, and shallow littoral zone marsh will be created at various locations within the 678-680 ft MSL zone surrounding _the_proposed_.reservoir: The acreage of shallow littoral zone marsh wetland and Piedmont alluvial forest is unaccounted for, but significant acreage of these wetland types ( > 50 acres) should naturally regenerate as the lake becomes filled. A monitoring plan has been developed to evaluate the success of wetland mitigation activities. Monitoring of soils, hydrology, and vegetation will be accomplished, with annual reports being submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and other designated agencies. A contingency plan has also been proposed to insure acceptable levels of compensatory mitigation has been achieved. ar, A CEO ?v cQ?, ? ? f 15 ? `;1 J ('i'`lyS ?ltis J s?,z l orN- a 6rn n??? r n i.; l 7 '1 e J J 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Aut? ity (PTRWA) proposes to construct Randleman Lake, as 3-045-acre- wate u ply reservoir with the pool elevation maintained betw ; n 680 ft to 682 ft 7L, on the Deep River in Randolph and Guilford counti e member local governments of the PTRWA (Jamestown, Archdale, High Point, Greensboro, and Randleman, and the County of Randolph) plan to divert water from Randleman Lake on the Deep River to Rich Fork Creek in the Yadkin River Basin and to North and South Buffalo Creeks in the Haw River sub-basin. This project was originally authorized by the U.S. Congress as a multi-purpose reservoir in 1968 to meet the future water demand of 48 mgd. Detailed information concerning PTRWA's water requirements is contained in a special report (NC DEHNR 1991), where population, industrial and economic growth were modeled as well as other conservation and purchase alternatives. 1.1 Background As required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (16 USC 1344), PTRWA has applied for a permit to place fill material in wetlands and impound water in the Deep River for the construction of the proposed dam and water supply reservoir. Although the Randleman Lake project will have no impact on species listed as threatened or endangered, or proposed for such listing by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the State of North Carolina (Carter 1993), the mitigation plan will eventually incorporate comments potentially identified as significant as part of the USACE public notice procedures. Environmental issues yet to be identified will have to be resolved through the extended review process and thus will be addressed by later versions of this mitigation plan. Assuming that this project is determined by the USACE in consultation with the USEPA to be in the public interest, and that there are no practicable upland alternatives, the conversion of approximately 119 acres of jurisdictional wetlands to open water habitat, can be resolved. The regulatory agencies will need to consider mitigation to compensate for unavoidable wetland impacts. The PTRWA has retained Triangle Wetland Consultants (TWC) to prepare this comprehensive wetland mitigation plan to outline the procedures to compensate for unavoidable wetland losses associated with the proposed Randleman Lake. 1.2 Purpose and Objectives The purpose of this report is to propose a comprehensive wetland mitigation plan to compensate for the unavoidable conversion of approximately 2 t??S ? ?? 7 J I J s 119 acres of wetlands to open water habitat. Specific objectives of this report include: o describe the wetlands impacted by the proposed project e identify potential impacts to wetlands © develop an on-site wetland creation, enhancement, and preservation plan © develop related habitat mitigation strategies ® provide management criteria for the permanent conservation status of the buffer area surrounding the impoundment © develop a mitigation monitoring and contingency plan. It is intended that this report will facilitate the review and approval of the pending 404 permit application and provide specifications adequate for technical review. 2.0 SITE CONDITIONS l 7 I l 2.1 Location and Attributes The project area is located in the western Piedmont of North Carolina, in Guilford and Randolph Counties (Figure 1). The project will require the permanent inundation of 3,045 acres of lam, along approximately 23 miles of stream (10 miles on Muddy Creek and 13 miles on the Deep River). Another 3,000 acres comprised of a 200 ft. conservation buffer will be protected around the lake above the 680 ft to 682 ft cQnsencation pool elevation. The project also includes the construction of an earth dam and spillway; the clearing and grubbing of vegetation within and adjacent to the conservation pool; the relocation of roads and utilities; relocation of inhabitants of about 55 dwellings; and the construction of a water treatment plant, intake structure, and associated pumping, transmission and distribution system to serve PTRWA governments. The entire project area is an agricultural, industrial, and urbanized complex of human impacts. The area is rapidly growing industrially around the Interstate 85 highway corridor, with agriculture and dairy farming yielding to pasture land and urbanization. In the project area, the relief is largely determined by the kind of bedrock underlying the soils, by the geology of the area, and the amount of landscape dissection by streams. The two broad classes of soil parent materials in the project area are residual materials and alluvium both of which have developed under hardwood forests. Granite makes up about half of the underlying rock with Cecil and Appling upland soils formed from these acid igneous substrates. The basic rocks of diorite and gabbro are the parent material for the upland Iredell and 3 1-1 0 n J F]"), 7 RANDLEMAN LAKE RANDOLPH AND GUILFORD COUNTIES, NORTH CAROLINA l Figure 1: Location of Randleman ,akc 0 Mecklenburg series soils. Transported alluvium on floodplains are mapped by the Soil Conservation Service as Congaree, Chewacla, and Wehadkee series soils. 2.2 Habitat Types The project site is comprised of a combination of stream channel (riverine), palustrine wetland, and upland habitat types (see habitat maps and report, Carter, 1993, and wetlands maps John R. McAdams, 1992). The streams at the proposed reservoir site are relatively shallow and vary from 20 feet wide to approximately 80 ft wide. Stream bottoms are composed primarily of coarse to medium grain sands with significant amounts of fines and limited organic material. Aquatic and wetland vegetation within the stream channel are absent, and the streams exhibit small amounts of deadfall and accumulated litter. The streams are typically sharply incised within the floodplain. Stream banks exhibit steep slopes of one to one (1:1) or greater and are sometimes in excess of six to eight feet in height. Groundcover is sparse along the steep side slopes, and overhanging vegetation generally covers the bank top. The Randleman Lake impoundment will convert present stream habitat to a lentic environment, and changes are anticipated in the fishery. Those species adapted only to a free-flowing stream habitat will decline in abundance and may eventually disappear from the reservoir. However, most fish in the area are adaptable to the lake environment and overall species composition should not change drastically (PTRWA, 1990). Fish habitat should continue to improve in the Deep River downstream, as the construction of the Randleman Lake will replace 23 miles of free-flowing streams with a 3,045 acre reservoir. Point and non-point source pollutants that would normally get into the river would be diluted by the lake waters and would tend to settle out in the upper reaches of the lake. Consequently, the water discharged downstream from the reservoir should be of a higher quality (i.e. lower nutrients and sediment load) than now exists in the t" stream (PTRWA, 1990). More detailed information about the reservoir's potential beneficial impacts on downstream water quality relative to the change in lake environment can be found in the USACE Environmental Impact Statement. 0 e Palustrine forested, broad-leaved deciduous wetlands (PFO1) are the predominant wetland type within the reservoir limits and include the Piedmont alluvial forest, Piedmont bottoml and forest, and floodplain.pool natural community types (Schafale and Weakley, 1990). However, smaller areas of palustrine scrub- shrub, broad-leaved deciduous (PSS1) and palustrine emergent, persistent (PEM1) wetlands are also present (Appendix A). Perennial and intermittent riverine wetlands occur in drainageways throughout the 6,000 acre project area. The riverine wetlands would be classified as upper perennial (R3UB) and/or 5 y- 1?? bl ? r ? t ??I 3 Se& V ? ?o? Fv--J intermittent (R4SB) riverine systems (Cowardin, 1979). Due to the moderate degree of topographic relief within the project area, palustrine wetlands are mostly confined within narrow floodplains along perennial streams and rivers. However, there are several palustrine wetlands located at slope break positions (spring/seeps). 2.3 Hydrogeomorphic Types The palustrine wetlands within the proposed reservoir limits were classified according to a hydrogeomorphic (HGM) approach (Brinson, 1993). The HGM approach classifies palustrine wetlands according to the geomorphic setting, water sources, and hydrodynamics. Based on a 1995 field reconnaissance, the mapped wetland areas can be grouped into three HGM types (Table 1).--gasedon observed field characteristics of mapped wetland areas and existing literature, functional profiles were developed for each HGM type. 2.3.1 Spring/seep Wetland Type There are relatively few wetland areas classified as seep wetlands within the Randleman Lake project area (Appendix A). Several wetland areas were classified as seep/fringe wetlands and/or seep/backswamp wetlands due to observed groundwater discharge and location at the base of a steep slope (Photos #4 and #6, Appendix B). This HGM type is located at slope break positions and corresponds to the low elevation seep community described by Schafale and Weakley (1990). The substrate is generally saturated throughout the growing season by groundwater discharge. These wetlands could potentially be dominated by a variety of plant communities from forested to emergent, although the examples noted within proposed Randleman Lake were all located at the edge of the Deep River floodplain in grazed fields dominated by soft rush (Juncus effusus) and sedge species (Carex spp.). These wetlands are generally small in size and transitional to channels (riverine) draining into Deep River. The potential functions and wildlife habitat values of these wetlands is minimal due to vegetation clearing and grazing (trafficking impacts). In some instances, these wetlands have been excavated to provide watering holes for cattle. Field observations indicate th h at t ese watering holes support populations of green frogs (Rana clamitans) and bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana), and therefore, provide limited wildlife habitat value. 2.3.2 Alluvial Fringe Wetland Type Alluvial fringe wetlands include narrow areas adjacent to high gradient perennial or intermittent streams, and relatively small (<0.25 acre) wetland areas in the floodplain of larger streams (Deep River, Muddy Creek, etc.). These areas are characterized by a short hydroperiod, usually temporarily flooded or J 6 J seasonally saturated and correspond to the Piedmont alluvial forest type described by Schafale and Weakley (1990). The relatively short hydroperiod is the result of the high gradient landscape position (adjacent to first order streams), absence of well developed soil aquatard (i.e. lack of silt or clay horizon to perch water), and lack of well-developed fluvial landforms (i.e. broad floodplain with levee and 7 backswamp features). Field evidence of a short hydroperiod includes marginal hydric soil characteristics (redoximorphic features), coarse textured sediments, lack of surface water, and lack of surficial hydrol is indicators (water-stained leaves, etc.). This wetland type is typically dominated by forest vegetation, but some areas have been cleared for pasture. Dominant tree and shrub species EJ J J 7 include sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), boxelder (Ater negundo), green ash _ t J 't (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), yellow poplar °. (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense). Table 1. Wetland Types Grouped According to a Hydrogeomorphic Classification after Brinson (1993) HGM 't'ype (natural Geomorphic Water Hydrodynamics community type') setting Tsource(s) spring/seep slope break groundwater nearly wetland (low discharge constant water elevation seep) table at or near surface alluvial fringe streamside overbank flow alternating wetland (Piedmont fringe of from stream recharge & alluvial forest) high to middle discharge gradient stream varying with stream stage alluvial backswamp middle gradient overbank flow seasonal wetland (Piedmont alluvial from stream & recharge alluvial forest, landform shallow dependent upon Piedmont subsurface stream stage & bottomland forest, lateral flow gradual dry- and floodplain from adjacent down dependent pools) uplands upon ET ' based on Schafale and Weakley (1990) The characteristic functions and values of this HGM type include carbon export, energy dissipation, short-term surface water storage, particulate retention, nutr_ ient c clin , and wildlife habitat values (Brinson et al., 1994; Taylor et al., 1990; Wilkinson et al., 1987). Certain functions (particularly biogeochemical functions) are rl .?' r ? ?) ? ! ; U.r.??.J-? r1 r ii 1 CG\ ? ?„^ 4-•? ? c (?J ? /^ tr j 1. i '- j L(JJ? L? limited in this HGM type due the short hydroperiod (Elder, 1987). These secondary functions include long-term surface water storage, soil water storage, moderation of groundwater discharge, and removal of elements and compounds. The alluvial fringe wetlands mapped within the Randleman Lake project area are generally small in size (<0.25 ac.) and/or located along high-gradient tributaries to Deep River that lack well developed fluvial landforms (i.e. stream levee with basin-like backswamp). Primary productivity and the associated functions (nutrient cycling, litterfall, and carbon export) of these alluvial wetlands are expected to be relatively high as compared with primary productivity of the adjacent upland forests or stagnant water systems (Conner and Day, 1976). Annual nutrient subsidies from floodwaters and favorable soil moisture conditions general ly result in higher productivity and _ _ . associated functions (Brinson et. at.,_.1981). Long-term surface water storage and soil water storage are limited due to the small size of individual wetland areas and lack of basin morphometry. In addition, most of these fringe wetlands have direct surficial connections to the stream channel that deter from long-term surface water storage. The high-gradient and poorly developed fluvial landforms affect substrate characteristics within these wetlands. Field evidence such as drift lines, scour channels, and sediment deposits suggest that floodwater velocities are generally high as compared with those in middle gradient landforms and tend to scour the floodplain. In the absence of slower velocity backwater areas, fine suspended sediments do not settle out of the water column, but pass through the wetland. High floodwater velocities and high woody stem densities tend to enhance the energy dissipation functions of these wetlands. In addition, high woody stem density facilitates the particulate retention function of the wetland. Scouring of the floodplain surface ,from high velocity floodwaters, surficial connections to the stream channel, and high primary productivity/litterfall enhance particulate organic carbon export (Cuffney, 1988), but the short retention time of floodwaters may lower dissolved organic carbon export (Mullohand and Kuenzler, 1979). Nutrient cycling/removal is an important function o these wetlan s, ut maybe limited due to sediment characteristics and hydroperiod (Brinson et al., 1984; Elder, 1987). Regardless of the magnitude of the latter wetland functions, these riparian wetlands and non-wetland forests provide critical buffers along first order streams and function as filters for sediments and nutrients from floodwaters and non-point source runoff (Kuenzler, 1989; Lowrance, 1992; Gilliam, 1994). The alluvial fringe wetlands within the Randleman Lake project area tend to be small in size. s ,Uc? Approximately 72% of the total number of wetlands mapped within the Randleman P t1U? Lake project area are less than 0.25 acre in size. These small wetland areas are not ?oo structurally different from the surrounding upland alluvial forest. Hard mast rJ producing species such as water oak (Quercus nigra),_ willow oak ( uercus pltellos), and swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxiicomprised an insignificant component of the plant community in this HGM type, However, there are some common soft mast producing species including blackhaw (Vibunium prunifolium), silky dogwood 8 i J 7 J 1 A 1 z4J d- J (Corpus amonuum), and multiflora rose (Rosa nuultiflora). Although some wetland areas contain large individual cavity trees and/or dead snags, most of this wetland type has ei en selectwely_ logged and is relatively immature. Individually, most of these small wetland areas lack any outstanding habitat characteristics and provide limited wildlife value. However, the cumulative (considering both upland and wetland areas) wildlife habitat and riparian corridor value would be relatively high. 2.3.3 Alluvial Backswamp Wetland Type The alluvial Backswamp wetland type includes both small and relatively large areas located in the floodplain of larger, middle gradient streams (Deep River, Muddy Creek, Hickory Creek, etc.). This wetland type is characterized by a longer hydroperiod than the previous type, usually temporarily flooded/saturated to seasonally flooded and corresponds to the Piedmont alluvial forest, Piedmont bottomland forest, and floodplain pool communities described by Schafale and Weakley (1990). The relatively long hydroperiod is the result of the lower stream gradient, presence of a soil aquatard (i.e. silt or clay horizon), and well-developed fluvial landforms (i.e. broad floodplain with levee and backswamp features). Field evidence of a long hydroperiod includes strong redoximorphic features in the soil, fine textured soil horizon, presence of surface water, and surficial hydrologic indicators (water-stained leaves, water marks, etc.). This wetland type is mostly dominated by forest vegetation, although some areas have been cleared for pasture (P o #5; Wppendix Bj-I5ominant tree and shrub species include sycamore, boxelder, green ash, red maple (Ater rubrum), river birch (Betula nigra), sweetgum, and blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica). t i 9??,?;s mil') The characteristic functions and values of this HGM type include carbon export, energy dissipation, short- and long-term surface water storage, soil water storage, particulate retention, removal of elements and compounds, nutrient cycling, and wildlife habitat values (Brinson et al., 1994; Taylor et al., 1990; Wilkinson et a)987). In addition, some alluvial backswamp wetland may proms vide moderatio of groundwater discharge due to the presence of groundwater Beeps and`shall"ow subsurface lateral flow into the wetland. The alluvial backswamp wetlands mapped within the Randleman Lake project area are generally larger in size (>0.25 ac.) than the alluvial fringe wetlands and are located in areas with well developed fluvial landforms (i.e. stream levee with basin-like backswamp). Short-term surface water storage, long-term surface water storage, and soil water storage are important functions because of the basin morphometry and presence of a slowly permeable soil horizon or soil aquatard (usually a fine silt or clay horizon). Some of the backswamp wetlands have surficial connections to the stream channel that limit the long-term surface water storage, but enhance the potential for dissolved and particulate organic export (Gosselink et al., 1990; Mullohand and Kuenzler, 1979; Cuffney, 1988). i`,^C% 1 Floodwater velocities are generally lower than those associated with high gradient fringe wetlands but may be sufficient to transport fine woody debris (indicated by drift lines) and particulate organic carbon. The( iigh woody stem densities;"Iiigh microtopographic relief, and broad floodplain increase the ability of 'these wetlands to slow floodwaters (energy dissipation function) and trap particulates (particulate retention function). Slower water velocities result in settling of fine suspended sediments from the water column. Fine-textured sediments and a relatively long hydroperiod favor nutrient retention and processing as well as the retention of metals (Gambrell, 1994; Elder, 1987; Brinson et al., 1984). Periodically flooded alluvial forests tend to have higher productivity rates and litterfall as compared with rates for upland or stagnant water systems (Conner and Day, 1976; Brinson et al., 1981; Reddy and Patrick, 1975). Some examples of the alluvial backswamp wetland type are structurally different from the surrounding upland alluvial forest. Several of these backswamp areas contain seasonally flooded ponds or floodplain pools (Photo #1, Appendix B). Although not widespread within the project area, these seasonal ponds provide critical breeding habitat for species such as wood frog (Rana palustris), spotted salamander (Ambystoma maculatum), marbled salamander (Ambystoma opacum), and Jefferson's salamander (Ambystoma jeffersonianum) (Dunson et al., 1992; Forester, • 1992; Dopyera, 1995). Some of the larger backswamp areas contain abundant standing dead snags and cavity trees. The presence of these cavity trees and snags is likely the result of past land management practices (selective logging, etc.) and size of the wetland (i.e. smaller wetland/upland areas are less likely to contain large diameter cavity trees and/or snags). Hard mast producing species such as water oak, willow oak, and swamp chestnut oak are mostly absent from these wetlands. However, there were some common soft mast producing species including spicebush (Lindera benzoin), silky dogwood, and blackgum. Some alluvial backswamp wetlands have been degraded by ¦ clearing/grazing. Grazing by cattle results in a reduction of herbaceous and ® understory vegetation, and destabilization/erosion of the substrate due to trafficking (Photo #3, Appendix B). Some backswamp wetlands have been entirely cleared for pasture (Photo #5, Appendix B). These disturbances have undoubtedly reduced the functions performed and values provided by the affected wetlands. 2.4 Exceptional Habitat Areas There are few examples of areas that possess exceptional habitat features within the Randleman Lake project area. An exceptional habitat was considered to be a relatively mature example of a particular type or a habitat type in decline 10 J J J t J 7 J 'ii' 1 J I1 7 C J and/or considered regionally rare. Most of the forested habitat within the project area is representative of the forest community types described by Schafale and Weakley (1990) which includes the Piedmont alluvial forest and Piedmont bottomland forest wetland types. The adjacent upland slopes are dominated by dry-mesic oak-hickory forest and the coves are dominated by mesic mixed hardwood forest: _Piedmont subtype. Most of these forested areas have been se-lectively Iogged or "high graded" for large diameter oaks. The existing forest stands are mostly dominated by pole-sized juvenile trees (5-10" DBH) or small sawtimber stands (10-15" DBH). Although the oak component (northern red oak, chestnut oak, white oak) is still- abundant in upland forests, oak species are not abundant in the bottomlands. The lack of any significant oak component in the bottomlands suggests extensive selective logging for oak species along the Deep j River and its tributaries.j- Two examples of mature (average diameter > 15" DBH Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest are present within the project area. One small remnant stand is located along Richland Creek, northwest of the High Point Sewage Treatment Facility. At least part of this stand will be protected by the proposed buffer zone. Another extensive example of this type is located along Hickory Creek, between Hickory Creek Road and Wall Road. A large portion of this stand will be protected by the proposed buffer zone. Several seasonal ponds were noted (Wetlands #4-1, #4-2, and #6-1) within the project area. As discussed, these seasonal ponds provide critical breeding habitat for certain declining amphibian species (Forester, 1992; Dopyera, 1995). In addition, these seasonal ponds are particularly sensitive to habitat acidification because of their low buffering capacity (Dunson et al., 1992). Although these three examples will be inundated by the proposed reservoir, some semipermanently/permanently flooded ponds will be preserved within the proposed buffer zone. In addition, excellent seasonal pond creation opportunities exist in open fields at the upstream limits of the proposed reservoir. The water level at this point is anticipated to be at or near bankfull capacity of the existing channel. Therefore, the water table in adjacent fields will fluctuate at or near the surface. Shallow basins, if properly designed, could simulate the hydroperiod of the natural seasonal ponds. After forest stands are established around these areas, they could potentially replace the lost breeding habitat. 3.0 POTENTIAL IMPACTS Potential impacts resulting from the proposed reservoir include impacts to wetland and aquatic resources and upland wildlife and habitat. Primary impacts to wetland and aquatic resources include conversion of the existing forested wetland habitats and shallow lotic aquatic systems to an open water, lentic aquatic system. The open water reservoir system will retain and/or enhance the values for most of 11 La? V1 7 J J 7 the current wetland functions including flood wate storage, sediment/toxicant retention, nutrient assimilation, and ground water ischarge/ recharge. The functions of wildlife habitat and -primary productivity, are expected to be adversely impacted. Such impacts are more ullydiscussed within the 404 permit application, EIS and other supporting documents. Presently the wetlands and aquatic habitats within the proposed project area provide high quality habitat for a wide variety of herpetofauna, birds and mammals. Some species within these groups are dependent on wetlands for food, protection, resting and reproduction (wetland dependent species), whereas other species use wetlands for only Ipart of their vital life functions. Some species spend their entire life cycle within a single wetland, whereas other species spend a portion of their life cycle in wetlands or may only travel through wetlands (Sather 1984). Fritzell (1988) described three categories for mammals using wetlands: 1) limited, species for which wetlands are essential, and the loss of which will eliminate use of the area by the species; 2) influenced, species for which wetlands are important, and the loss of which will decrease carrying capacity, but not eliminate the use of the area by the species, and 3) unaffected, species who regularly use wetlands, but for which wetlands are not necessary, and will not likely decrease the carrying capacity of the area. Most species associated with the project area will be displaced to adjacent and surrounding wetlands or upland habitats. Bottomland hardwood forests are inherently productive. A major factor contributing to the high productivity of forested floodplains is the pulsing wet-dry cycle (Wharton et al. 1982) Primary productivity potential within the floodplain will be reduced by construction of the proposed reservoir as will the detritus export and transformation potential of excess dissolved organic nutrients. There is also an accompanying shift in primary productivity from particulate organic material (floodplain detritus) to phytoplankton, as open water replaces existing vascular plant material sites. 7 1 The fishery resources of the site will be impacted by the proposed reservoir. Fish species composition within the river systems in the vicinity of the proposed reservoir is composed of over 30 species of fish (Carter 1993), with a composition generally of bluegill (Leptomis macrochirus), warmouth (Lepomis gulosus), redear sunfish (Lepomis microlophus), red breast sunfish (Lepomis auritus), blue head chub (Noncoms letocephalus) and catfish (Ameiurus sp.). This lotic fishery resource will be replaced by a typically lentic, flat water fishery. Typical fish species of the proposed reservoir system may include bluegill, largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), 12 if } l- 5 J J J J 7 1 J J yellow perch (Perca flavecens) and black crappie (Pomoxis nigramaculatus). 4.0 MITIGATION The Section 404 (b)(1) guidelines of the Clean Water Act (16 USC 1344), as described in 40 CFR Part 230, state that unavoidable wetland losses resulting from projects which have completed the sequencing process may be offset by effective mitigation actions. According to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, mitigation actions should include avoidance, minimization, restoration, enhancement and compensation for unavoidable impacts. After all practical attempts to avoid and minimize wetland losses have been accomplished, compensatory mitigation in the form of restoration, enhancement, creation, preservation and acquisition should be developed. As identified in the Memorandum of Agreement between the USACE and USEPA (15 November 1989), wetland restoration is the most desirable form of compensatory mitigation. Creation is the second most desirable form '_ of mitigation,and is _general ZIeemed?nore_desirable- than-enhancement. Acquisition of existing wetlands, while potentially significant for corridor protection and as a hedge against future development, ranks least desirable for wetland mitigation. Ideally, compensatory mitigation should be in-kind and on-site. Wetland areas at or adjacent to the project site may be restored, created or enhanced to compensate for wetland functions and values of the wetland areas impacted. However, in areas with significant topographic relief, in-kind and on-site mitigation for reservoir projects may be limited in both quantity and quality of wetlands that can be successfully restored and/or created around the periphery of the reservoir. The second priority of compensatory mitigation should be in-kind, off-site mitigation which compensates for the function and value of the wetlands lost in an area as close to the project area as possible. The mitigation proposal for Randleman Lake reservoir is a comprehensive plan that includes: 0 on-site creation of Piedmont bottomland forest wetlands (92 ac) established on existing fields and pastures between the 680-682 ft MSL contour; 0 on-site creation of Piedmont bottomland forest wetlands (148 ac) established on suitable cleared areas between the 680-682 ft MSL contour; 0 on-site creation of naturally revegetated wetland types (140 ac) established on cleared areas between the 680-682 ft MSL contour; 0 on-site preservation of Piedmont alluvial forest, Piedmont bottomland forest, and low elevation seep wetlands (25 ac +/-) within the buffer zone above the 682 ft MSL contour; 13 :l l J 7 J l J l 7 7 O enlargement and preservation of a variety of upland habitat types within the reservoir buffer zone from 50 ft to 200 ft. 4.1 Avoidance and Minimization of Impacts Impacts associated with the construction of the proposed dam and reservoir were initially avoided and minimized to the extent practicable and are described in the 404 application. Measures to minimize impacts are generally considered during the siting process and evaluation of alternative sites. During the construction of the dam and reservoir, best management practices (BMPs) will be employed to minimize impacts to adjacent wetlands and aquatic systems. Specific measures to reduce erosion, and to control sediment movement will be employed to protect the water quality of the Deep River downstream from construction areas. Specific practices will include the use of upland siltation barriers and sediment traps, stream channel basins, and runoff diversion dikes, where applicable. Details for these sediment retention and erosion control measures are typically outlined in an approved Erosion and Sediment Control Plan. Such features/structures will be inspected regularly and maintained throughout the construction period and additions or repairs will be made as necessary. Additionally, an uncleared buffer strip will be maintained adjacent to the Deep River and Muddy Creek within the confines of the cleared reservoir basin to reduce impacts to water quality and stream biota during construction. Vehicular access routes needed during construction will be minimized and restricted to specific routes to minimize disturbance to adjacent and surrounding wildlife and habitats. Construction roads as well as the sediment control features will be located on the site as required by the site's physical constraints and construction schedule. 4.2 Buffer Area Preservation One of the most notable aspects of this project's commitment to water quality is the excessive measures taken by the PTRWA to ensure that the immediate buffer area around the impoundment will be protected through condemnation and purchase, rather than use of easements, right-of -ways, etc. Nominally, North Carolina statutes only require that "...a margin of at least 50 feet around the impoundment shall be owned or controlled by the water supplier (15A NCAC 18C.0403)." Whereas the PTRWA has taken deliberate actions to significantly expand of the reservoir buffer to 200 ft horizontally above the normal pool level. This commitment by PTRWA will result in fee simple ownership of 6,184 acres of total project area including the buffer area. The expanded buffer area will provide extensive habitat improvement benefits, future impact reduction (such as erosion), and protection from water/wetlands impacts. Since the total 14 J project area with the required 50 foot buffer is 4,354 acres, it can thus be concluded that the PTRWA will purchase with the 200 foot buffer approximately 1,830 acres more than is normally required for reservoirs. Vegetation provides the primary production, and protection of catchment ecosystems. The preservation and natural restoration of the adjacent upland and wetland plant communities within the buffer zone greatly influences runoff-rate, water-loss through evapotranspiration, and soil erosion (Petts, 1984). Well protected and vegetated buffer areas greatly improve the percolation of rainfall and divert this water into receiving water as subsurface stormflow versus surface J 1 7 7 J e 7 7 stonnflow (Horton, 1945). For developed watersheds that may drain stormwater into the reservoir 1 I 'i ' through feeder streams, there will be an additional remediation or mitigation ofI stormflow through this greatly expanded buffer area. Vegetated riparian buffer areas are well known for their functions in mitigating stormflow, inorganic nutrient retention and transformation, and sediment trapping. Without a stable buffer area, it is well documented that a reservoir's storage capacity can be seriously compromised in less than 20 years (Dorst, 1970; Walling, 1981). It is the opinion of the PTRWA that the additional buffer area will also provide valuable temperature modulation in riparian areas by shading effects, and allowing some temperature sensitive species to exist within the reservoir by seeking safe havens in the vegetated buffer areas (Minshall, 1978; Hawkins and Sedell, 1981). Additionally, an expanded buffer area will provide a stable location for fish populations to feed on an abundant invertebrate communities common in feeder streams (Culp and Davies, 1982). For some fish species, their presence in the reservoir will be wholly dependent upon the interaction of the reservoir and the invertebrate community in the adjacent riparian areas. Therefore it is important to recognize the need to consider conservation measures that will achieve effective protection of reservoir functions and species diversity. 4.2.1 Management Criteria for Buffer Area The management and protection strategies for the buffer areas will be extremely important for the long term protection of the reservoir. This vegetation zone is situated directly adjacent to the reservoir and is the final protection zone. Clearly, the buffer area must provide maximum protection from sedimentation and water-born pollutants from upstream and surface water from uplands. Both point and non-point sources of pollution originate in the Deep River watershed. Likely contaminants include pesticides, animal waste, wastewater effluent, petroleum products and sediment. Measures must be taken to minimize the quantity of these pollutants and the negative impacts to water quality and the useful life of the reservoir. 15 1 A Management and Protection Plan for the watershed including the buffer area should be developed. The first requirement for implementation of a this Plan is a complete inventory of the natural resources and an accompanying survey of land uses within the watershed. The resulting data bases and descriptions will characterize forest canopy, mid and understory vegetation, soil type and quality, hydrology including feeder streams, reservoir margins and associated wetlands, and prominent species of wildlife. Data bases should be generated through GIS systems compatible with those used by Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority. Results should include descriptions and quantities of land use on surrounding properties, and discussion of observed or potential impacts of such uses on the reservoir. Where amelioration or mitigation is needed and alternative management approaches should also be presented leading to recommended courses of action. Implementation of the management plan would include but would not necessarily be limited to: 1. Installation of erosion and sedimentation control structures and/or vegetation. 2.' Implementation of a sampling plan to assess the amount of sediment - delivered to the reservoir annually. 3. Thinning of established forest stands to enhance value. 4. Advising the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority on working with neighboring landowners on practices to minimize adverse impacts of certain land uses. 4.3 Proposed Pool Level Management In order to ensure adequate hydrologic conditions for the growth and establishment of the proposed wetlands creation areas, the reservoir pool level will be managed in perpetuity to flood the proposed wetland creation areas during the dormant season and early growing season. The proposed wetland creation areas will be flooded and/or saturated within 12 inches of the soil surface for at least 12.5% of the growing season. Based on data contained in the Soil Survey of Guilford County, North Carolina (Stephens, 1977), the average growing season (for the purposes of wetland determination) is approximately 224 days from March 26 to November 6. To ensure adequate hydrologic conditions for the establishment of the proposed wetlands, the PTRWA will maintain the reservoir pool at an elevation of 682 ft. MSL for a period of at least 28 days extending from March 26 to April 22 annually. The PTRWA should begin to release water and maintain the reservoir 16 r?,)rc Jv d-:' ^ ., C,, 1%"tk",1, , ti,c, ? J J J 1 I-] J J pool at an elevation of 680 ft. MSL for the period of April 22 to November 6 annually, provided that regional climatic conditions permit the release of water. There is no obligation for management of the reservoir pool elevation between November 6 and March 26, although it is anticipated that the pool level will be maintained at an elevation of 682 ft. MSL during that time period. The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority will strive to manage the reservoir pool elevation according to the latter schedule; however, during periods of extreme climatic conditions (i.e. extreme precipitation, flooding, or drought) the oo PTRWA will manage the reservoir pool elevation to ensure public safety and maintenance of the public water supply. 4.4 Site Selection Successful creation of the proposed Piedmont bottomland forest wetlands is dependent upon site selection and proper site preparation. A variety of site types exist within the 680-682 ft MSL zone around the proposed Randleman Lake. Regardless of site type, all existing fields and pastures (92 ac.) will be planted with characteristic Piedmont bottomland forest species (Table 2). The remaning 288 acres within the 680-682 ft MSL is currently forested. Water supply reservoirs must comply with public health and water supply regulations in North ; cJ Carolina. Based on these regulations, specifically T15A:18C.0400 and__ T15A:18B.0300, PTRWA must,clear.the entire area five vertical feet below normal full level (682-677 ft) and-clear the area ten horizontal feet from maximum W;-,`? pool elevation (682 ft). Once the reservoir is filled, natural regrowth and or O ?:, ` m plantings within these cleared zones will be permitted. Suitable sites (148 ac) y within the cleared upland forest zone will be selected for planting with characteristic Piedmont bottomland forest species. 4.4.1 Existing Fields and Pastures The existing fields and pastures within the proposed 200 foot buffer zone can be grouped into the following general categories: tilled field, grazed pasture, hayfield, abandoned field, and mid-successional abandoned field. Tilled fields include those areas currently cultivated and planted with row crops, and areas that were cultivated within the last year. Grazed pasture includes those areas that are fenced and show evidence of grazing by cattle. Grazed pasture may be entirely open or may have scattered trees. Hayfields are open grasslands periodically mowed for hay production. This grouping may also include mowed residential areas. Abandoned fields are open areas that have not been tilled, mowed, or grazed for approximately two to five years. These areas are generally characterized by invasion of several common early successional old field species such as broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus), goldenrods (Solidago spp.), 17 J multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), blackberry (Rubus spp.), scattered eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana), and scattered loblolly pine (Pinus taeda). Mid- successional abandoned fields include former fields and pastures that have been abandoned for over five years. These areas are characterized by the early successional old field species, sapling sized eastern redcedar and loblolly pine, and various hardwood species including sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica). 1 t Table 2: Tree and Shrub Species Recommended for Planting within the Piedmont Bottomland Forest Wetland Creation Areas at Randleman Lake.

Slopes within the proposed planting zone vary from 2 % to 45 % with highly variable soil characteristics. Surficial soil texture varies from sandy loam to clay loam. In many areas the A- horizon has been eroded and the subsoil has been exposed. Desirable planting sites include gently sloping areas with an adequately t 18 o?, 7 r 0 Lj J J e 1 developed A-horizon and silt loam/sandy loam soil texture. Site preparation and planting is facilitated by gentle slopes with silt loam and/or sandy loam surficial soil textures. Many of these desirable sites are located along existing first and second order tributaries to the proposed reservoir. Creation of Piedmont bottomland forests at these sites will positively contribute to overall water quality in the proposed reservoir. Desirable sites will be planted with characteristic Piedmont bottomland forest species. Site with steep slopes, eroded A-horizons, L and clayey soil texture will be avoided. Disturbance on undesirable sites will be minimize and plant ommunities will be permitted to regenerate naturally. Natural coppice regeneration of existing facultative species (i.e. red maple and sweetgum) present within these upland forests is expected to dominate these sites. 4.4.3 Site Preparation Prescriptions Site preparation activities for proposed planting areas within existing fields, pastures,, and upland forest within the 680-682 ft MSL zone may include fertilization, mowing, ripping, clearing, and herbicide application. 4.4.3.1 Existing Fields and Pastures The site preparation for each field type will vary somewhat, but in general the planting rows need to be cleared of herbaceous and grass competition by initial mowing and herbicide application. In addition, many of the existing soils are compacted from cattle and machine traffic so the fields will be deep ripped to alleviate compaction and to facilitate planting. Deep ripping of these fields will also provide the row marking for planting crews. Mowing will be accomplished using a standard "bush-hog" mower, except in certain mid-successional abandoned fields where specialized equipment may be necessary in order to clear sapling sized pines. The specialized equipment and additional time necessary for clearing rows in these mid-successional fields may substantially increase the costs of site preparation in these areas. PTRWA will consider the costs versus benefits of this additional restoration acreage prior to implementing site preparation. Herbicide applications will follow deep ripping and row marking and will consist of an early spring application of Glyphosate (Roundup) at 1 ounce active ingredient per acre combined with Sulfometuron Methyl (Oust) at 2 ounces active ingredient per acre. The herbicide mixture will be applied prior to planting in 24 inch bands centered over the planting rows. Deep ripping will be implemented using a tractor and ripping bar(s) attached to t e -porn hitch. The soil will be ripped to a depth of 12 to 24 inches to facilitate planting and mark the planting rows. Planting rows should follow the natural field contours as much as possible. Fields will be marked prior to ripping to ensure row spacing (10 feet) is maintained. A tool bar with one or more r cLy 19 ripping bars and a 10 foot extension on either side can be set up. The 10 foot extensions serve as a template to maintain the proper row spacings. Planting will follow site preparation in the spring, generally from late-February to mid-April. Nutrient analysis of soils will be performed prior to planting to facilitate fertilizer prescriptions to optimize seedling growth. Fertilizers will be banded at the time of ripping to ensure proper incorporation into the soil and to reduce any effects of fertilizer movement downslope. Table 3 summarizes the restorable areas for each field, categorizes the existing condition of the field, and provides specific comments where appropriate. 4.4.3.2 Cleared Areas Existing upland forest (288 ac) within the 680-682 ft MSL zone will be cleared prior to flooding the reservoir in order to comply with State environmental/public health regulations. Prior to clearing, suitable planting sites (148 ac) within this zone will be identified. Proposed planting sites will be cleared and grubbed using ground crews, tracked equipment, and rubber-tired skidders. Within planting sites, herbicides will be applied to control undesirable regrowth. Herbicide applications following clearing will consist of an early spring application of Glyphosate (Roundup) at 1 ounce active ingredient per acre combined with Sulfometuron Methyl (Oust) at 2 ounces active ingredient per acre. The herbicide mixture will be applied prior to planting in 24 inch bands centered over the planting rows. Undesirable planting sites within the 680-682 ft MSL zone will be cleared, but not grubbed. Herbicides will not be applied to these sites. 7 J J J Table 3: Summary of Restorable Fields and Pastures within the 680-682 ft MSL zone at Randleman Lake Field 1D Existing Cover Type' Estimated Area 680-682 ft MSL at) Soil Type Comments & Regeneration 1-1 A soybean field 1-2 E U MhB2/Ch redcedar, V.pine, broomsedge 17 / 2852 h rose, ac berry, & some sweetgum 2-IA* B 0 Ch/WkC scattered V. pine & redcedar 1 * EnB/Ch/WkC/ scattered .pine re cedar 2-2* A/C 0 WkD/Ch boxelder along roadway 4 U WkE fallow field 3-3* A U Ch tilled field o h mowed grass 3-1 C/D 0 WkD part mowed field w/boxedler & blackberry 1 A mostly tilled 4-2* C/D 8000 WkE mowed grass w/house & scattered pine/cedar/hdwds 4-3* C 4960 EnC disturbed area 20 D:'-j 7 J J J Table 3: Summary of Restorable Fields and Pastures within the 680-682 ft MSL zone at Randleman Lake Field ID Existing Cover Type' Estimated Area 680-682 ft MSL W) Soil Type Comments & Regeneration 5-1 C 26040 o/ kD mowed grass 5-2* B 57660 A1hC2/WkE scattered large shtlf & loblolly 5-3* C/D 0 kE/En ' broomsedge, rose. & blackberry 5-4* D 0 WkE pond/bldg. w/scattered trees A 37200 n tallow w/b dgs. 5-6* A 4464 EnC fallow corn 1 77- 065142 n /?

As proposed, the compensatory wetland mitigation will result in greater than a 2:1 replacement ratio. Wetland creation areas will be hydrologically subsidized by reservoir pool management in perpetuity. 4.5.1 Piedmont Bottomland Forest Wetland Creation Piedmont bottomland forest wetlands will be created in existing fields, pastures, and upland forest within the 680-682 ft MSL zone. The hydrologic source for these wetlands will be flooding due to reservoir pool management. Management of the reservoir pool will ensure early growing season flooding of this zone for a minimum of 12.5% of the growing season. Depending on the specific site type and soil characteristics, soil saturation within 12 inches of the surface may persist after the reservoir pool is lowered to 680 ft MSL. All existing fields and pastures (92 ac) within the 680-682 ft MSL zone will be 24 r t4- a planted with characteristic Piedmont bottomland forest species. Selected upland forest sites (148 ac) within the 680-682 ft MSL zone will be cleared and grubbed and planted with characteristic Piedmont bottomland forest species. The remaining upland forest area within the 680-682 ft MSL zone will be cleared prior to reservoir flooding and allowed to naturally regenerate from coppice growth. Facultative species such as red maple and sweetgum are expected to initially dominate these areas. 4.5.2 Wetland Preservation and Creation within Buffer Zone Existing wetlands within the buffer zone will be preserved in perpetuity. Due to the elevated water table in the area, some wetlands will likely be created within the 682-684 ft MSL zone around the reservoir. These wetlands are likely to develop around existing tributaries to the reservoir and in relatively level areas adjacent to the proposed pool. a J .1 J J J 1 4.6 Wildlife Habitat Mitigation The loss of upland wildlife habitat will be mitigated by protection and management of a 200 foot buffer zone surrounding the reservoir. Existing fields and pastures above the 682 ft MSL elevation (786 ac) will be allowed to naturally revert to old field habitat and ultimately hardwood forest. The different cover types initially contained within the buffer zone, mature hardwood forest, early successional pine forest, and old fields, will provide a diversity of habitat for upland wildlife species. In addition, aquatic and shoreline habitat will be increased by the proposed reservoir. 4.6.1 Wildlife Habitat Enhancement The proposed impoundment will result in the significant loss of wildlife habitat. However, construction of the Reservoir will also facilitate the development of new wildlife habitat. Randleman reservoir is expected to attract a wide variety of waterfowl and other migratory bird species by providing improved feeding and resting habitat. Species potentially attracted to the open water and shallow littoral zone habitats associated with the proposed reservoir include the mallard duck (Anas plathrhynchos), American widgeon (Anas antericana), American black duck (Anas rubripes), Canada geese (Branta canadensis), wood duck (Aix sponsa), teal (Anas spp.) and horned grebe (Podiceps auritus). The proposed reservoir is extensive and should attract raptors such as osprey (Pandion haliaetus). The loss of riverine and bottomland hardwood habitat, and the associated loss of wood duck nesting habitat will be mitigated by the installation of at least 25 C 60 nest boxes located in shallow coves and around the periphery of the reservoir. Wood duck nest boxes, when properly constructed, can be extremely effective in increasing the production of wood ducks. The juxtaposition of the reservoir and adjacent mitigation areas will provide attractive sites for wood duck nest boxes. The artificial nesting structures in conjunction with buffer zone management should increase the population of resident wood ducks around the reservoir. F 4.6.2 Fisheries Resource Enhancement The construction of the proposed dam and reservoir on the Deep River will significantly alter the existing aquatic community. Species associated with the existing lotic systems will be gradually replaced by those species favoring a lentic system; such as bluegill, largemouth bass, yellow perch, channel catfish and black crappie. To improve the fishery resources, habitat value and to increase public use of the proposed reservoir, fishery enhancement measures will be applied. Specific measures include retention of dead trees for fish attractors, and potential fish stocking. Fish attractors are designed for two principal purposes: to create habitat features that will promote fish production and survival, and to facilitate congregations of desirable species for improved angling. The fish attractors proposed in this plan will consist of residual trees that will be left to die from inundation in selected coves within the impoundment. Coves will be selected that are conducive from a structural and water depth perspective to provide additional feeding and spawning areas in the deeper, more secluded areas of the reservoir. After a period of several years the standing dead snags will fall and be partially submerged in place to further structural components. These structures are known to successfully congregate fish and improve the angling potential of a reservoir. This strategy has been successfully utilized on other recreational impoundments and has the added benefit of providing perches and nesting sites for fishing raptors. The actual location of such standing timber will be determined in consultation with N.C. and U.S. fisheries biologists. Fish stocking when correctly utilized is one of the oldest methods of fish population manipulation. Stocking is employed to establish fish species composition, enhance fisheries production, and to improve angling opportunities. The proposed reservoir should be stocked with appropriate recreational fish in consultation with the NC Wildlife Resources Commission and under the direction of the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority. Sufficient public access will be provided to optimize recreational opportunities. 26 JA? 5.0 WETLAND MONITORING A monitoring plan has been formulated to evaluate the succ s of on-site wetland creation. The plan is designed to document changes in t e seasonal ground water table and flooding at a variety of represent ive s. ypes identified as wetland creation areas. A yearly monitoring report will be prepared and submitted to the USACE and USEPA for review and distribution to inter ted commenting agencies. The monitoring program will be conducted fofive ears and will follow USACE Guidelines (12/8/93). At the completion of this period, the success of the mitigation plan will be evaluated by the USACE in consultation with the USEPA to determine if the mitigation plan will require modification and/or additional years of monitoring. The monitoring plan will address soils, hydrology, and vegetation within compensatory wetland mitigation areas. Matching the ecological setting of the project areas to natural wetlands is a fundamental aspect of the proposed mitigation approach. Monitoring, in the development of mitigation applications, provides an accounting of ecosystem processes to ensure that functioning forested wetlands are established. The performance of the mitigation will be assessed by comparing monitored data from the mitigation sites relative to undisturbed, adjacent, reference forested wetland habitats. Since the intensity of post-construction monitoring varies with the environmental significance of the project (White, 1991) and the probability of successfully achieving targeted wetland functions, our monitoring regime will measure and evaluate both structural and functional indices. There will be both graphic and written components to generate baseline conditions of each mitigation area. Maps will be generated to record wetland mitigation area, shape, monitoring well locations, proposed vegetation plots, the patterns of planted vegetation, and open water adjacency. A written narrative will augment the graphics and will serve as a record of what specifically was done during the construction phase regarding soil amendments, site preparation, and plant establishment. This assessment will be filed with the appropriate regulatory agencies within six months following project implementation. Once the as-built assessment is complete, differences between what was proposed and what was built will be evaluated by the permitting agency or overseeing agency. If modifications to the project are necessary, the as-built assessment will need to be updated to reflect these changes. When the evaluation is final, the as-built assessment will become the permanent record to enable comparison with all future project assessments. Routine assessments are project examinations which will record wetland o development toward mitigation. This information is used to: 1) identify problems 27 (zxSN ? r/tivl t/ :m J d 7 7 that require correction; 2) provide a record of progress; and 3) determine when project performance warrants releasing the Contractor from further responsibility. Data collected during routine assessments should reflect project objectives (Kentula et al., 1992), and will include the following: 5.1 Hydrology Water depth will be measured both as a function of inundation above ground (staff gauge), and depth below ground using shallow monitoring wells consisting of slotted PVC pipe 2.5 inches in diameter to a 30 inch depth. Indirect indicators will also be recorded according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, (1987) Federal Manual for Identifying and Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands (WTI, 1981). Approximately 20 monitoring wells will be installed within the proposed wetland creation areas (1 well per 20 acres) at representative sites. In addition, PTRWA may install additional wells above the 682 ft MSL elevation to verify the creation of additional wetlands at specific sites in this zone. During the first year, measurements will be taken monthly during the dormant season and weekly during the early growing season. In subsequent years, measurements will be recorded only during the early growing season from mid- March to mid-May. Measurements will be made to the nearest 0.1 inch and will be plotted to show changes over time. This monitoring schedule will be followed until regulatory release. 5.2 Soils Soil depth and characteristics will be determined using a soil auger or by excavation of a pit to depth of compacted soil or rock. Soil sampling locations will be located in the vicinity of each proposed well. Munsell color will be determined for chroma and hue for both matrix and mottles (WTI, 1987) for each soil horizon to a depth of 40 inches. Soil texture will be determined for each soil horizon using textural triangle and based upon feel. All soil amendments such as fertilizer or lime will be documented and activity monitored by soil analysis for the first two years. Soil analysis will also include measuring organic matter. Cw?? The degree of anaerobiosis of surface sol:is will be measured using iron rebar inserted to a 30 inch depth established at each well location and recorded on the well measurement schedule. The iron rod technique is based upon the principle that an iron rod placed in poorly drained soils will rust rapidly in the aerated zone of the soil, but not in the saturated zone where biological oxygen demand creates reducing conditions. This method has been shown to be a reliable indicator of the average soil water table levels on poorly drained heavier soils, and is one of the several methods used to determine the presence of reducing soil 28 conditions in jurisdictional wetland determination (McKee, 1978 and Hook et al., 1987). 5.3 Vegetation Planting locations will be mapped and planting methods will be filed in the first year status report. Plant community monitoring stations will be located in the vicinity of each well location and at additional sites. Survival, species, number of plants per acre, and tree height and diameter (when appropriate) will be measured at the end of each growing season just prior to leaf fall. A survival rate for all planted woody species of a minimum of 320 stems/acre will be required after 5 ` years. At least one sampling station will be established for every 5 acres of uniform terrain to ensure adequate representation of site conditions. Permanent vegetation 0.05 acre circular plots will be monumented in the field and on maps to facilitate repeated measurements. Species composition, wetland indicator status, and dominance will be measured within each plot. Trees and shrubs will be assessed separately and will be evaluated for number and coverage. The number and species of volunteer woody stems will also be recorded in each sample plot and compared with planted species. 5.4 Observation The project areas will be photographed from permanent photo stations and changes in any of the above variables will be recorded and included in each annual report. A series of sampling stations will also be established randomly in areas that currently support lentic bottomland hardwood areas. If necessary, other impoundments will be visited that have been created several decades ago to assess the degree of parameter overlap of naturally regenerating bottomlands with those created with this project. Impoundments, such as Hyco Lake near Roxboro, N.C., that are created on similar Piedmont soils and geology might prove useful for establishing reference bottomland wetland communities. 6.0 REGULATORY RELEASE A report will be compiled annually to summarize the current year's assessments and will be submitted to the appropriate agencies in December. The report will indicate if corrections are required or if more comprehensive monitoring is needed to interpret wetland conditions since the last routine assessment was performed. The annual assessment will be filed with the permanent project records so that it is available for future reference. Following review of the Annual Reports or interim review and recommendations by the 29 G U 0 L?J J J E regulatory agencies, modifications may be implemented. The success of the wetland creation and upland restoration will be determined at the end of the five-year monitoring period based on review of the monitoring results. Evaluation criteria for the Piedmont bottomland forest creation will follow the "Mandatory Technical Criteria for Wetland Identification" described in the 1987 USACE field manual. Monitoring efforts will continue if the following standards are not attained: 1. A mean density of 320 trees per acre are growing at wetland sites consisting of preferred canopy species which average 6 feet tall based on one permanent 0.05 acre sampling plot established for every 2 acres. 2. At least 50% survival of planted understory species will be present, or 63 plants per acre based on plot samples. 3. Soils will be considered restorated when the physical and chemical properties for successful re-establishment of the wetland forest vegetation are present. At a minimum the soil conditions will meet the criteria specified in the 1987 Corps Manual. 4. Hydrological conditions, as determined by visual observation and monitoring wells, will meet the 1987 Corps Manual technical criteria. 6.1 Contingency Plan If the presented wetland mitigation plan is partially successful, i.e., wetlands have been created, but less than the total acres projected, additional wetlands will be created within the riparian watershed or in adjacent watersheds on wet agricultural lands. Any additional mitigation efforts will only be in an amount necessary to make up the balance of acres required for jurisdictional wetlands. If wetland creation adjacent to the proposed reservoir is initially unsuccessful, appropriate adjustments in pool elevation management and/or species selection will first be attempted. If adjustments do not produce successful wetland creation, additional acreage will be sought. It is implicit that the mitigation plan and contingency actions proposed herein are complete and will require no further actions once executed. 30 ?I 7.0 References e Brinson, M.M., F.R. Hauer, L.C.

The project has been through the public interest review, and a consensus has been reached with regard to the water dependent nature of the project and the lack of feasible alternative sites. Therefore, mitigation, as presented in this document, is proposed to compensate for the unavoidable conversion of approximately 120.70 acres of wetlands associated with the construction of the Randleman Reservoir. The wetland and aquatic habitats within the proposed reservoir were delineated and a qualitative assessment and characterization was performed (see wetland maps (Poteat 1993), and biological assessment maps and report (Carter 1993)). The project area contains a combination of aquatic and wetland habitats including, river stream channel (245.34 ac), Piedmont alluvial forest wetlands (102 ac), bottomland hardwood forest wetlands (4 ac), and wetland seeps (15 ac). The potential impacts resulting from the conversion of approximately 366.04 acres of aquatic and wetland habitats to an open water aquatic habitat have been identified in earlier reports (PTRWA 1990, 1994). This mitigation plan includes on-site and off-site mitigation and is comprised of wetland creation, restoration, and preservation, and fish and wildlife habitat enhancement. On-site mitigation will consist of creating approximately 80 acres of littoral zone bottomland hardwood wetlands (683 to 685 ft MSL), and approximately 118 acres of forested wet flat woodland adjacent to the proposed reservoir (685 to 690 ft MSL) created from open fields and pastures. The acreage of shallow littoral zone marsh wetland is unaccounted for, but significant acreage of this kind (>50 acres below 683 ft MSL) of habitat should naturally regenerate as the lake becomes filled. Upland mitigation, likely to be a significant contribution to water quality and habitat enhancement, will consist of 517 acres of planted fields and pastures to forested habitat (690 ft MSL to project boundary). A monitoring plan has been developed to evaluate the success of wetland mitigation activities. Monitoring of soil hydrology and vegetation will be accomplished, with annual reports being submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ( USEPA) and other esignated gencies. A contingency plan has also been proposed to insure acceptable levels of compens tory mitigation has been achieved. =w(- - 0 e?'- 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority (PTRWA) proposes to construct Randleman Lake, a 3,045 acre water supply reservoir at 682 R MSL, on the Deep River in Randolph and Guilford counties. The member local governments of the PTRWA (Jamestown, Archdale, High Point, Greensboro, and Randleman, and the County of Randolph) plan to divert water from Randleman Lake on the Deep River to Rich Fork Creek in the Yadkin River Basin and to North and South Buffalo Creeks in the Haw River sub-basin. This project was originally authorized by the U.S. Congress as a multi-purpose reservoir in 1968 to meet the future water demand of 48 mgd. Detailed information concerning PTRWA's water requirements is contained in a special report (NC DEHNR 1991), where population, industrial and economic growth were modeled as well as other conservation and purchase alternatives. 1.1 Background As required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (16 USC 1344), PTRWA has.: ? applicd for a permit to place fill material in wetlands and impound water in the Deep River for the construction of the proposed dam and water supply reservoir. Although the Randleman Lake project will have no impact on species listed as threatened or endangered, or proposed for such listing by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the State of North Carolina (Carter 1993), the mitigation plan will eventually incorporate comments potentially identified as significant as part of the USACE public notice procedures. Environmental issues yet to be identified will have to be resolved through the extended review process and thus will be addressed by later versions of this mitigation plan. Triangle Wetland Consultants reserves the right to amend or alter any version of this plan whenever new information becomes available through any party. Assuming that this project is determined by the USACE in consultation with the USEPA to be in the public interest, and that there are no practicable upland alternatives, the conversion of approximately 121 acres of jurisdictional wetlands to open water habitat, can be resolved. The regulatory agencies will need to consider mitigation to compensate for unavoidable wetland impacts. The PTRWA has retained Triangle Wetland Consultants (TWC) to prepare this comprehensive wetland mitigation plan to outline the procedures to compensate for unavoidable ® wetland losses associated with the proposed Randleman Lake. 2 u III 1.2 Purpose and Objectives The purpose of this report is to propose a comprehensive wetland mitigation plan to compensate for the unavoidable conversion of approximately 121 acres of wetlands to open water habitat. Specific objectives of this report include: • describe the wetlands impacted by the proposed project • identify potential impacts to wetlands • develop an on-site and off-site wetland creation, restoration, and enhancement mitigation plan • develop related mitigation strategies • provide management criteria for the permanent conservation status of the buffer area surrounding the impoundment • develop a mitigation monitoring and contingency plan. It is intended that this report will facilitate the review and approval of the pending 404 permit application and provide specifications adequate for technical review. 2.0 SITE CONDITIONS 2.1 Location and Attributes The project area is located in the western Piedmont of North Carolina, in Guilford and Randolph Counties (Fig. 1). The project will require the permanent inundation of 3,045 acres of land, along approximately 23 miles of stream (10 miles on Muddy Creek and 13 miles on the Deep River). Another 3,000 acres comprised of a 2a conservation buffer will be protected around the lake above the 682 ft conservation pool elevation. The project also includes the construction of an earth dam and spillway; the clearing and grubbing of vegetation in the conservation pool; the relocation of roads and utilities; relocation of inhabitants of about 55 dwellings; and the construction of a water treatment plant, intake structure, and associated pumping, transmission and distribution system to serve PTRWA governments. The entire project area is an agricultural, industrial, and urbanized complex of human impacts. The area is rapidly growing industrially around the Interstate 85 highway corridor, with agriculture and dairy farming yielding to pasture land and urbanization. In the project area, 3 N e n u RAIdDLEMAN LAKE RANDOLPH AND GUILFORD COUNTIES, NORTH CAROLINA Figure 1: Location of Randleman Lake iI M 0 the relief is largely determined by the kind of bedrock underlying the soils, by the geology of the area, and the amount of landscape dissection by streams. The two broad classes of soil parent materials in the project area are residual materials and alluvium both of which have developed under hardwood forests. Granite makes up about half of the underlying rock with Cecil and Appling upland soils formed from these acid igneous substrates. The basic rocks of diorite and, gabbro. are the parent materiaLfor the upland Iredell and Mecklenburg series soils. Transported alluvium of floodplains are mapped by the Soil Conservation Service as Congaree, Chewacla,J and Wehadkee series soils. 2.2 Habitat Types The project site is comprised of a combination of wetland and upland habitat types (after Carter 1993, see habitat maps). Water and wetland habitats inundated by the normal pool include: • Stream Channel (245.35 ac) • Alluvial Forest (102 ac) • Bottomland Forest (4 ac) • Seeps (15 ac) Bottomland and upland habitats within the overall project site include: H • Alluvial forest • Bottomland forest • Wetland seeps • Open pastures, fields, other agriculture • Developed areas, ponds, powerlines • Mesic Mixed hardwood forest • Dry-mesic oak-hickory forest • Acidic cliff The primary wetland and aquatic habitat types that will be impacted by the proposed project are described below. 5 2.2.1 Stream Channel (23 miles) The streams at the proposed reservoir site are relatively shallow and vary from 20 feet wide to approximately 80 ft wide. The bottom is composed primarily of coarse to medium grain sands with significant amounts of fines and limited organic material. Aquatic and wetland vegetation within the stream channel are absent, and the streams exhibit minimal amounts of deadfall and accumulated litter. The streams are typically sharply incised within the floodplain. Stream banks exhibit steep slopes of one to one (1:1) or greater and are sometimes in excess of six to eight feet in height. Groundcover is sparse along the steep side slopes, and overhanging vegetation generally covers the bank top. The Randleman Lake impoundment will convert present stream habitat to a lentic environment, and changes are anticipated in the fishery. Those species adapted only to a free- flowing stream habitat will decline in abundance and may eventually disappear from the reservoir. However, most fish in the area are adaptable to the lake environment and overall, 5 species composition should not change drastically. (PTRWA, 1990). Fish habitat should continue to improve in the Deep River Downstream, as the construction of the Randleman Lake will replace 23 miles of free-flowing streams (245.34 acres) with a 3,045 acre reservoir. Point and non-point source pollutants that would normally get into the river would be diluted by the lake waters and would tend to settle out in the upper reaches of the lake. Consequently, the water discharged downstream from the reservoir should be of a higher quality than now exists in the stream ( PTRWA, 1990). More detailed information about the reservoir's potential beneficial impacts on downstream water ualit relative to the change in lake environment can be found in t e USACE Environmental Impact Statement. 2.2.2 Piedmont Bottomland Forest (4 acres pool, 5 acres buffer) This palustrine, forested/scrub shrub, deciduous, saturated wetland, as classified by Cowardin et al. (1979), is the wettest forest community found within the project floodplain (Carter, 1993). The type is dominated by red maple (Ater rubnnn), river birch (Betula nigra), black willow (Salix nigra), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), southern sugar maple (Ater saccharum ssp. floridanum), American elm (Uhnus americana), and ironwood (Carpinus carohniana). The understory is composed of poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Japanese 6 0 honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), and wood nettle (Laportea canadensis), with wetter locations supporting mixed sedges and arrowwood (vibunnan dentatum). A portion of this forest type is ecotonal between the Piedmont Bottomland Forest and the Piedmont Alluvial forest and is comprised of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), sweetgum and red maple. Small wet areas that lacked a consistent canopy of hardwoods were classified and mapped as seeps (15 acres pool, 1 acre buffer) (Carter 1993). 2.2.3. Piedmont Alluvial Forest (1057 acres pool, 630 acres buffer) The Piedmont alluvial forest is comprised of seasonally and temporarily flooded lowlands. The seasonally flooded hardwoods, classified according to Cowardin et al. (1979) as palustrine, forested, deciduous, seasonally flooded wetlands, are first and second terrace alluvial hardwood communities within the floodplain areas of the project area. Although Cowardin et al. (1979) classifies this type as jurisdictional wetland, this community type in the Piedmont is typically found on light gravely soils which occur on natural levees and sandy deposit areas, witlun the floodplain area, and.therefore cannot be considered jurisdictional wetlands because. they are typically well-drained. The canopy is usually dominated by river birch, sweetgum, tulip-poplar (Liriodelydron tulipifera), southern sugar maple, sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) and an occasional black walnut (Juglans nigra). The understory is occupied by ironwood, pawpaw (Asia ina triloba), spice bush (Lindera benzoin), privet (Ligustrum sinense), poison ivy, and Japanese honeysuckle. 2.2.4. Mixed Mesophytic Forest (809 acres pool, 923 acres buffer) The rich, mixed mesophytic upland hardwood community is generally found on north- , facing slopes and in ravines. The canopy in this community is dominated by tulip-poplar, beech (Fagus grandifolia), sugar maple, white oak (Ouercus alba), and red oak (Ouercus rubra), and some species from the Alluvial Forest type. The understory is dominated by holly (Ilex opaca), redbud (Cercis canadensis), mountain laurel (Kahnia latifolia), and occasionally, wild hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens) and May apple (Podophyllum vin ineum). Where the soils were moist, Christmas fern (Polystichum acrostichoides) and mosses (Lycopodium spp.) existed. 2.2.5. Dry Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest (273 acres pool, 498 acres buffer) J 0 7 9 This forest type usually exists upslope from the aforementioned forest community types. Various oaks (Ouercusfalcata, alba, coccinea, rubra, velutina) were common (Carter 1993), with pines (Pines virginiana, echinata) associated with this community type. Understory components included dogwood (Corpus florida), sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), black gum (Nyssa sylvatica), blackhaw (Viburnum prunifolium), blueberry (Vaccinium spp.), Japanese honeysuckle, poison ivy, and grape (Vitis spp.) (Carter 1993). The weedy understory indicates that this habitat type has been frequently disturbed by fire, grazing, and harvesting. Several small rock outcrops exist in this habitat type (5 acres pool, 2 acres buffer) (Carter 1993). These sites which were mapped as Piedmont Acidic Cliff communities, provide habitat for unusual species such as rock spikemoss (Selaginella rupestris), columbine (Aquilegia canadensis), blunt-lobed fern (Woodsia obtusa), and talinum (Talinum teretifolium). 304s- 2`?S 3.0 I POTENTIAL IMPACTS Development of the 3,045 acre water supply reservoir will convert approximately 121:, acres of jurisdictional-wetlands to open water habitat and a dam. The 4 acres of bottomland forest, 102 acres of alluvial forest, and 15 acres of seeps comprise the wetland impacts. Not included in this wetland acreage are approximately 245 acres of stream channel. The remainder of the proposed reservoir acreage to be inundated is composed of approximatel 2,800 acr se of 0?2 mixed alluvial hardwood and mixed pine-hardwood upland communities, and 637 acres of fields and pastures. Potential impacts resulting from the proposed reservoir include impacts to wetland and aquatic resources and upland wildlife and habitat. Primary impacts to wetland and aquatic resources include conversion of the existing forested wetland habitats and shallow lotic aquatic systems to an open water, lentic aquatic system. The open water reservoir system will retain, and/or enhance the values for most of the current wetland functions including flood water storage, sediment/toxicant retention, utrient asslmila ion nd ground water discharge/ recharge. The functions of wildlife habitat aril -nm oductivitY are expected to be P rY P adversely impacted. Such impacts are more fully discussed within the 404 permit application and other supporting documents. Presently the wetlands.and aquatic habitats within the proposed project area provide high quality habitat for a wide variety of herpetofauna, birds and mammals. Some species within these groups are dependent on wetlands for food, protection, resting and reproduction (wetland dependent species), whereas other species use wetlands for only apart of their vital life s 8 0 functions. Some species spend their entire life cycle within a single wetland, whereas other species spend a portion of their life cycle in wetlands or may only travel through wetlands (Sather 1984). Fritzell (1988) described three categories for mammals using wetlands: 1) limited, species for which wetlands are essential, and the loss of which will eliminate use of the area by the species; 2) influenced, species for which wetlands are important, and the loss of which will decrease carrying capacity, but not eliminate the use of the area by the species, and 3) unaffected, species who regularly use wetlands, but for which wetlands are not necessary, and will not likely, decrease the carrying capacity of the area.. Most species associated with the project area are either influenced or unaffected and will be displaced to adjacent and surrounding wetlands or upland habitats. Bottomland hardwood forests are inherently productive. A major factor contributing to the high productivity of forested floodplains is the pulsing wet-dry cycle (Wharton et al. 1982). Primary productivity potential within the floodplain will be reduced, by construction of the proposed reservoir as will the detritus export anc -transfon potential, of excess dissolved organic nutrients. There is also an accompanying shift in primary productivity from particulate organic material_(floodplain detritus) to phytoplankton.. as open water replaces existing vascular plant material sites. The fishery resources of the site will be impacted by the proposed reservoir. Fish species composition within the river systems in the vicinity of the proposed reservoir is composed of over 30 species of fish (Carter 1993), with a composition generally of bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus), warmouth (Lepomis gulosus), redear sunfish (Lepomis microlophus), red breast sunfish (Lepomis auritus), blue head chub (Noncoms letocephah1s) and catfish (Ameiurus spp). This lotic fishery resource will be replaced by a typically lentic, flat water fisher. Typical fish species of the proposed reservoir system may include bluegill, largemouth bass (Micropteus salmoides), channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), yellow perch (Perca Jlavecens) and black crappie (Pomoxis nigramaculatus). 4.0 MITIGATION The Section 404 (b)(1) guidelines of the Clean Water Act (16 USC 1344), as described in 40 CFR Part 230, state that unavoidable wetland losses resulting from water dependent projects may be offset by effective mitigation actions. According to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, mitigation actions should include avoidance, minimization, 1 M restoration, enhancement and compensation for unavoidable impacts. After all practical attempts to avoid and minimize wetland losses have been accomplished, compensatory mitigation in the form of restoration, enhancement, creation, preservation and acquisition should be developed. As identified in the Memorandum of Agreement between the USACE and USEPA (15 November 1989), wetland restoration is the most desirable form of mitigation. Creation is the second most desirable form of mitigation and is generally deemed more desirable than enhancement. Acquisition of existing wetlands, while potentially significant for corridor protection and as a hedge against future development, ranks least desirable for wetland mitigation. Ideally, compensatory mitigation should be in-kind and on-site. Wetland areas at or adjacent to the project site may be restored, created or enhanced to compensate for wetland functions and values of the wetland areas impacted. However, in areas with significant topographic relief, in-kind and on-site mitigation for reservoir projects may be limited in both quantity and quality of wetlands that can be successfully restored and/or created around the periphery of the reservoir. The second priority of compensatory mitigation should be in-kind, off-site mitigation which compensates for the function and value of the wetlands lost in an area as close to the project area as possible. The mitigation proposal for Randleman Lake reservoir is a comprehensive plan that includes: • on-site creation of littoral zone bottomland hardwood wetlands (80 ac) established on fields and pastures between the 683-685 ft MSL contour; • on-site creation of wet flat woodlands (118 ac) on fields and pastures between the 685-690 ft MSL contour; • on-site re-establishment of upland hardwood forest (517 ac) above the 690 ft MSL contour to the property boundary. 4.1 Avoidance and Minimization of Impacts Impacts associated with the construction of the proposed dam and reservoir were initially avoided and minimized to the extent practicable and are described in the 404 application. Measures to minimize impacts are generally considered during the siting process and evaluation of alternative sites. During the construction of the dam and reservoir, best management practices (BMPs) will be employed to minimize impacts to adjacent wetlands and aquatic systems. Specific measures to reduce erosion, and to control sediment movement will be employed to protect the water quality of the Deep River downstream from construction areas. Specific practices will include the use of upland siltation barriers and sediment traps, stream channel basins, and runoff diversion dikes, where applicable. Details for these sediment 10 Ml 9. retention and erosion control measures are typically outlined in the engineering drawings for this project. Such features/structures will be inspected regularly and maintained throughout the construction period and additions or repairs will be made as necessary. Additionally, an unclcared buffer strip will be maintained adjacent to the Deep River and Muddy Creek within the confines of the cleared reservoir basin to reduce impacts to water quality and stream biota during construction. Vehicular access routes needed during construction will be minimized and restricted to specific routes to minimize disturbance to adjacent and surrounding wildlife and habitats. Construction roads as well as the sediment control features will be located on the site as required by the site's physical constraints and construction schedule. 4.2 On-Site Mitigation The compensatory on-site mitigation actions proposed for the immediate reservoir area include wetland forest creation, upland forest restoration, and the creation of natural littoral zone emergent wetlands which ill-evolve na urallyD. 4.2.1 Wetlands Creation and Habitat Restoration The majority of the wetlands impacted by the proposed reservoir are temporarily and seasonally flooded forested wetlands and scrub-shrub wetlands. Accordingly, wetland creation will focus on these types of wetlands. There is opportunity to mitigate for these wetland types around the periphery of the proposed reservoir in the purchased land adjacent to the proposed normal pool (683 ft MSL). 4.2.1.1 Littoral Bottomland Hardwood Wetlands Between the normal pool (683 ft MSL) and the saturated soil zone (685 ft MSL) zone there is an area of approximately 80 acres available for creation of forested wetlands from fields (48 ac) and pastures (32 ac): Wetland creation in these areas will focus on a mixture of facultative wetland, a d-fr? acultative species Although this area will be above the normal pool of the reservoir, there will be an aeration of the soils resulting in an increase in soil saturation from th probsblC r e of th water table adjacent to the reservoir. These ower tonog at)hic areas within the 80 acres are excellent candidates for creation of obligate to facultative?wet forest wetland dominated communities. Their present condition as raj ?11 0 open lands means that they will likely evolve on their own to some form of wetland forest, but we can actively control species composition and community diversity. Without active intervention, natural regeneration of open uplands to wetlands involves domination of opportunistic tree species such as red maple, river birch, boxelder, and black willow into monotypic "weedy" forests. L? Mitigation on these areas will involve the blockage of any drainage ditches, and site preparation for planting using a combination of disking, chisel plowing and low bedding. Soils will be analyzed to determine fertilization and liming requirements. Prior to planting during February, a pre-emergent herbicide to control noxious weed competition will be applied. Each l d ll ll li l i ill b ifi il h d i i h d b an ow ttora wet s. e strat s, topograp y an prox m ty to natura y s a s te w e y so Based on an inventory of preflooded bottomlands, a planting prescription of canopy trees and understory shrubs will be developed (Table 1). Trees and shrubs will be planted at 6 x 10 foot spacing (726 plants/acre = 600 trees/acre plus 126 shrubs/acre). Planting will be mixtures of tree and shrub bare root seedlings and matched to specific hydrological strata within each site to correspond to native species mixtures in adjacent obligate and facultative wet habitats. Planting will be done following contour lines to simulate natural stem distribution and stratification. Our strategy of planting 726 plants/acre should provide adequate insurance of meeting the required survival number even under severe abiotic and biotic conditions. 4.2.1.2 Wet Flat Woodlands Between the saturated soil zone of 685 ft MSL and 690 ft MSL there is an area of approximately 118 acres of open land in fields (77 ac) and pastures (41 ac). Wet flat woodland creation in this area will involve planting a mixture of facultative wetland, and facultative tree and shrub species. Although part of this area will be above the likely jurisdictional wetland boundary, hydric conditions will be prevalent. There will be a gradual wetting of this area from the general regional rise of the water table immediately adjacent to the reservoir and portions of this area will become wetlands. It will take several years for the exact area of wetlands to be determined. The melding of this zone with the adjacent created wetlands will ensure that a true transitional forest community type will develop from obligate to facultative species at the same location. This transition will also provide benefits for water quality protection and habitat corridor development around the entire reservoir margin. Mitigation will involve much of the same procedures and site preparation as stated for the littoral bottomland hardwood wetlands. Table 1 lists commercially available species that 12 Table 1: Tree and shrub species recommended for mitigation planting in the bottomland hardwood (BLH), wet flat woodland (WFW), and upland zone (U) at Randleman Reservoir.

Trees and shrubs will be planted as bare root seedlings at 6 x 10 foot spacing (726 plants/acre = 600 trees/acre plus 126 shrubs/acre). 4.2.1.3 Upland Hardwood Forest Restoration Between the 690 ft MSL and the project boundary there exists open fields (317 ac) and pastures (274 ac) that will be restored to upland forest habitat. Although not considered to be important in terms of "no net loss" of jurisdictional wetlands, such restoration should be high priority for habitat protection and water quality concerns. Planting techniques and densities will be similar to those previously outlined. Bare root seedlings of species listed in Table 1 will be established to produce a facultative to facultative upland community composition. A desirable outcome of upland hardwood forest establishment is to ensure that ample hard and soft mast species are provided for wildlife in addition to the protection of the reservoir this will provide. 4.2.2 Wildlife Habitat Enhancement The proposed impoundment will result in the significant loss of wildlife habitat, however, construction of the reservoir will also facilitate the development of new wildlife habitat. Additionally, the reservoir is expected to attract a variety of waterfowl and other migratory bird species by providing improved feeding and resting habitat for certain species. Species potentially attracted to the open water and shallow littoral zone habitats associated with the proposed reservoir include the mallard duck (Arras plathrhynchos), American wigeon (Arras americana, American black duck (Arras rubripes), Canada geese (Branta calladensis), wood duck (Aix sponsa), teal (Arias spp.) and horned grebe (Podiceps auritus). The proposed reservoir is extensive and should attract raptors such as osprey (Pandion haliaetiis). The loss of riverine and bottomland hardwood habitat, and the associated loss of wood duck nesting habitat will be mitigated by the installation of at least 60 nest boxes located in shallow coves and around the periphery of the reservoir. Wood duck nest boxes, when properly constructed, can be extremely effective in increasing the production of wood ducks. The juxtaposition of the reservoir and adjacent mitigation stands will provide suitable sites for wood duck nest boxes. The artificial nesting structures in conjunction with buffer zone management should increase the population of resident wood ducks on the proposed reservoir. 14 0 R 4.2.3 Fisheries Resource Enhancement The construction of the proposed dam and reservoir on the Deep River will significantly alter the existing aquatic community. Species associated with the existing lotic systems will be gradually replaced by those species favoring a lentic system; such as bluegill, largemouth bass, yellow perch, channel catfish and black crappie. To improve the fishery resources and habitat value and to increase public use of the proposed reservoir, fishery enhancement mechanisms will be applied. Specific measures include retention of dead trees for fish attractors, and potential fish stocking. Fish attractors are designed for two principal purposes: to create habitat features that will promote fish production and survival, and to facilitate congregations of desirable species for improved angling. The fish attractors proposed in this plan will consist of residual trees that will be left to die from inundation in selected coves within the impoundment. Coves will be selected that are conducive from a structural and water depth perspective to provide additional feeding and spawning areas in the deeper, more secluded areas of the reservoir. After a period of several years the standing dead snags will fall and be partially submerged in place to further structural components. These structures have been known to successfully congregate fish and improve the angling potential of a reservoir. This strategy has been successfully utilized on other recreational impoundments and has the added benefit of providing perches and nesting sites for fishing raptors. The actual location of such standing timber will be determined in consultation with N.C. and U.S. fisheries biologists. Fish stocking when correctly utilized is one of the oldest methods of fish population manipulation. Stocking is employed to establish fish species composition, enhance fisheries production, and to improve angling opportunities. The proposed reservoir should be stocked with appropriate recreational fish in consultation with the NC Wildlife Resources Commission and under the direction of the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority. Sufficient public access will be provided to optimize recreational opportunities. 4.3 Off-Site Mitigation Off-site mitigation is frequently combined with on-site mitigation strategies to compensate for both the quantity and the quality of the wetlands to be impacted. The off-site mitigation for the proposed Randleman Lake combines wetland creation (as freshwater marsh) and wetland preservation through acquisition. 15 ?W, 4.3.1 Wetland Creation and Habitat Restoration In an effort to enhance the quality of the water flowing into the reservoir-three freshwater marsh impoundments are proposed up-stream from the reservoir. The design of these freshwater wetlands is such that they will store stormwater and absorb nonpoint source pollution. The active management and construction of such wetlands will offset the losses associated with reservoir construction, and will also mitigate the long-term urbanization stormwater effects as the landscape around the reservoir is developed. It is well established in the literature that wetlands improve water quality under certain circumstances by a combination of physical, chemical, and biological mechanisms. Pollutants may be trapped, lost to the atmosphere by volatilization, incorporated into sediments, taken up by biota, broken down into simpler constituents, or exit the wetland in the runoff stream. It is wise to site wetlands into a rapidly developing landscape or to construct new wetlands targeted for areas of known impacts from residential, industrial, municipal, and commercial water pollution. The watersheds that were examined for construction of freshwater marsh impoundments were in headwater areas at the point of the initial influx of nutrient and sediment laden surface runoff (Fig. 2). 4,/ r`^a' Fo?t-%- ` 0t?,Ta`' ? Compounding flow problems in urbanizing watersheds (from increasing impervious surfaces) is the concomitant loss of flood storage capacity from filled or modified wetlands and floodplains. Examples of this phenomenon have been verified during our reconnaissance and have challenged us to locate and design headwater detention facilities to protect in-stream values without adversely affecting existing wetlands. The urbanization impacts and the need for wetland detention facilities, justifies a combined strategy for compensatory wetland mitigation/stormwater renovation to protect Randleman Reservoir. Floodplain, wetland, and stormwater management programs are complex and used in conjunction, their complexities are compounded. In moving stormwater/wetland management facilities to the floodplain requires an understanding of wetlands and their unique attributes in a given location. Based on surveys of the major tributaries of the proposed reservoir, seven sites w` were chosen as practicable with three sites recommended. The three locations describe e ow are viewed to be the best sites where a combined strategy is likely to lead to acceptable water quality improvement. Such a strategy should include a combination of shallow retention ponds; a temporary runoff storage area, an emergent marsh, and a wet meadow and/or bottomland 16 hardwood area,with appropriate water control structures and spillways for peak storm events. In addition to improving flood and sediment control, this stem is designed to meet NPDES ? ZZWW W lww???cn <?"a a cn 1? 3.

It will also create Ott 2 wetland habitat areas connected within the floodplain corridor and demonstrate the benefits of constructed and natural wetland wetlands working to improve water quality and flood amelioration. Such systems have been widely employed in rapidly urbanizing areas such as Florida and Maryland. Following is a description of the three stormwater impoundment sites proposed for headwater areas at Randleman Reservoir: Site 1. Jenny Creek Headwaters-- Several potential sites are located on Jenny Creek and Reddicks Creek off of Southview road and near SR 1129 (Groomtown Road). The sites are east of Kivett Drive intersection with SR 1129 and immediately adjacent to I-85. One of the proposed locations is situated between Brandy Road and Cimmaron Court and I-85 (Fig. 3). The preliminary design for this stormwater wetland is 7.75 acres fitted to treat a watershed area of approximately 1000 acres with a 10 year stormwater flow of 1320 cfs. Site 3. Glenola-- The site is south of SR 1919 and west of Taylor's Trailer Park. It is on a tributary to Muddy Creek and immediately downstream from a horse farm facility which is contributing significant erosion and nutrient enrichment to Muddy Creek (Fig. 4). The potential stormwater/wetland 9.64 acres fitted to treat a watershed area of approximately 600 acres with a 10 year stormwater flow of 1008 cfs. c+ Site 7. Landfill Site-- The site is directly downstream of the Guilford County Landfill adjacent to the Richland Creek floodplain west of SR 1145 (Riverdale Road) (Fig. 5). Water quality was noticeably poor given the upstream development as well as significant sediment displacement around the landfill site. The proposed stormwater/wetland is 5.40 acres fitted to treat a watershed area of approximately 900 acres with a 10 year stormwater flow of 1242 cfs. r 18 . cos once y ?

This vegetation zone is situated directly adjacent to the reservoir and is the final protection zone. Clearly, the buffer area must provide maximum protection from sedimentation and water-born pollutants from upstream and surface water from uplands. Both point and non-point sources of pollution originate in the Deep River watershed. Likely contaminants include pesticides, animal waste, wastewater effluent, petroleum products in addition to sediment. Measures must be taken to minimize the quantity of these pollutants and the negative impacts to water quality and the useful life of the reservoir. Management and Protection Plan fort e watershed including the buffer area should be developed. The first requirement for implementation of a this Plan is a complete inventory of the natural resources and an accompanying survey of land uses within the watershed. The resulting data bases and descriptions will characterize forest canopy, mid and understory vegetation, soil type and quality, hydrology including feeder streams, reservoir margins and associated wetlands, and prominent species of wildlife. Data bases should be generated through GIS systems compatible with those used by Piedmont Triad Water Authority. Results should include descriptions and quantities of land use on surrounding properties, and discussion of observed or potential impacts of such uses on the reservoir. Where amelioration or mitigation is needed and alternative management approaches should also be presented leading to recommended courses of action. Implementation of the management plan would include but would not necessarily be limited to: 1. Installation of erosion and sedimentation control structures and/or vegetation. 2. Implementation of a sampling plan to assess the amount of sediment delivered to the reservoir annually. 3. Thinning of established forest stands to enhance value. 4. Advising the Piedmont Triad Water Authority on working with neighboring landowners on practices to minimize adverse impacts of certain land uses. 22 C r f 4 n 0 E E i J 2 J 7= 7 J O 5.0 MONITORING/ A monitoring plan has been formulated to evaluate the success of on-site wetland creation (littoral zone bottomland hardwoods) and off-site wetland creation. The plan is designed to document changes in the seasonal ground water table level and vegetative species S7` composition over time in the wetland creation areas yearly monitoring report will be prepared and submitted to the USACE and USEPUr review and distribution to intereste commenting agencies. The monitoring program will be conducted fo three -- . t t e completion of this period, the success of the mitigation plan will be evaluated by the USACE in consultation with the USEPA to determine if the mitigation plan will require modification and/or additional years of monitoring. The monitoring plan will consider soil hydrology and., vegetation. Matching the ecological setting of the project areas to natural wetlands is a fundamental aspect of the proposed mitigation approach. Monitoring, in the development of mitigation applications, provides an accounting of ecosystem processes to ensure that functioning forested wetlands are established. The performance of the restoration projects will be assessed by comparing monitored data from the mitigation sites relative to undisturbed, adjacent, reference forested wetland habitats. Since the intensity of post-construction monitoring varies with the environmental significance of the project (White, 1991) and the probability of successfully achieving targeted wetland functions, our monitoring regime will measure and evaluate both structural and functional indices. There will be both graphic and written components to generate baseline conditions of each mitigation area. Maps will be generated to record wetland mitigation area, shape, the patterns of vegetation and open water adjacency. A written narrative will augment the graphics &5 and will serve as a record of what specifically was done during the construction phase regarding ? soil amendments, site preparation, and plant establishment. This assessment will be filed with the appropriate regulatory agencies within six months following project implementation. Once the as-built assessment is complete, differences between what was proposed and what was built will be evaluated by the permitting agency or overseeing agency. If modifications to the project are necessary, the as-built assessment will need to be updated to reflect these changes. When the evaluation is final, the as-built assessment will become the permanent record to enable comparison with all future project assessments. Routine assessments are project examinations which will record wetland development toward mitigation. This information is used to: 1) identify problems that require correction; 2) provide a record of progress; and 3) determine when project performance warrants releasing the 23 Contractor from further responsibility. Data collected during routine assessments should reflect project objectives (Kentula et al., 1992), and will include the following: 5.1 Ground Water Water depth will be measured both as a function of inundation above ground (staff gauge), and depth below ground using shallow monitoring wells consisting of slotted PVC pipe 2.5 inches in diameter to a 30 inch depth. Indirect indicators will also be recorded according to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, (1987) Federal Manual for Identifying and Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands (WTI, 1981). During the first year, measurements will be taken monthly (dormant season), weekly (growing season) for the entire month of April, and monthly thereafter for the first year. The only difference for the following monitoring periods will be bimonthly measurements following the weekly measurements in April. This monitoring schedule will be followed until regulatory release. 5.2 Soils Soil depth will be determined using a soil auger or by excavation of a pit to depth of compacted soil or rock. Munsell color will be determined for chroma and hue for both matrix and mottles (WTI, 1987) for each soil horizon to a depth of 40 inches. Soil texture will be determined for each soil horizon using textural triangle and based upon feel. All soil amendments such as fertilizer or lime will be documented and activity monitored by soil analysis for the first two years. Soil analysis will also include measuring organic matter. The degree of anaerobiosis of surface souls will be measured using iron rebar inserted to a 30 inch depth established at each well location and recorded on the well measurement schedule. The iron rod technique is based upon the principle that an iron rod placed in poorly drained soils will rust rapidly in the aerated zone of the soil, but not in the saturated zone where biological oxygen demand creates reducing conditions. This method has been shown to be a reliable indicator of the average soil water table levels on poorly drained heavier soils, and is one of the several methods used to determine the presence of reducing soil conditions in jurisdictional wetland determination (McKee, 1978 and Hook et al., 1987). 1 24 5.3 Vegetation Planting locations will be mapped and planting methods will be filed in the first year status report. Survival, number of plants per acre, and tree height and diameter (when appropriate) will be measured at the end of each growing season just prior to leaf fall. A survival rate for all planted woody species of 400 stems/acre will be required after 5 years. At _ least one sampling station will be established for every five acres o uniform terrain to ensure----- adequate representation of site conditions. Permanent vegetation row plots will be monumented in the field and on maps to facilitate repeated measurements. Species composition, wetland indicator status, and dominance will be measured within each row plot. Trees and shrubs will be assessed by establishing 3 rows of 50 plants each (300 ft.). The number and species of volunteer woody stems will be recorded in a two foot band (600 ft.^2) along planting rows. 5.4 Observation The project areas will be photographed from permanent photo stations and changes in any of the above variables will be recorded and included in each annual report. A series of sampling stations will also be established randomly in areas that currently support lentic bottomland hardwood areas. If necessary, other impoundments will be visited that have been created several decades ago to assess the degree of parameter overlap of naturally regenerating bottomlands with those created with this project. Impoundments, such as Hyco Lake near Roxboro, N.C., that are created on similar Piedmont soils and geology might prove useful for establishing reference bottomland wetland communities. 6.0 REGULATORY RELEASE A report will be compiled annually to summarize the current year's assessments and will be submitted to the appropriate agencies in December. The report will indicate if corrections are required or if more comprehensive monitoring is needed to interpret wetland conditions since the last routine assessment was performed. The annual assessment will be filed with the permanent project records so that it is available for future reference. Following review of the Annual Reports or interim review and recommendations by the regulatory agencies, modifications may be implemented. 7 25 7 The success of the wetland creation and upland restoration will be determined at the end of the Xime--},ear monitoring period based on review of the monitoring results. Evaluative criteria for the 80 acre littoral bottomland hardwood creation will follow the "Mandatory Technical Criteria for Wetland Identification" described in the 1987 USACE field manual. Monitoring efforts will continue if the following standards are not attained: i 1. A mean density o600 rees per acre are growing at wetland sites consisting of preferred canopy species which average 6 feet tall based ozone permanent sampling station established for every 5 acres. 2. At least 50% survival of planted understory species will be present, or 63 plants per acre based on row plot samples. 3. Soils will be considered acceptable for restoration when the physical and chemical properties for successful re-establishment of the wetland forest vegetation are present. At a minimum the soil will be saturated within 12 inches of the surface for seven consecutive days during the growing season (April through October, inclusive). 4. Hydrological conditions, as determined by visual observation and monitoring wells, will meet 80% overlap with 1987 Mandatory Technical Criteria. 6.1 Contingency Plan wetland creation,, additional acreage will be sought. It is implicit that the mitigation plan and contingency ac tons proposed herein are complete and will require no further actions once executed. / If the presented wetland mitigation plan is partially successful, i.e., wetlands have been created, but less than the 80 acres as projected, additional wetlands will be created within the riparian watershed or in adjacent watersheds on wet agricultural lands. All. criteria, excluding the degree of soil saturation, will be required for the 118 acres of wet flat woodlands and the upland restoratiow Any additional mitigation efforts will only be in an amount necessary to make up the balanc of 8 acres -0 required jurisdictional wetlands. If wetland creation adjacent to the propose reservoir is initially unsuccessful, appropriate adjustments in elevation and/or species planting will first be attempted. If adjustments do not produce successful !,t/f ?? &C-3 26 0 7.0 References Carter, J.H. 1993. Biological assessment for Randleman Lake, Randolph and Guilford Counties, North Carolina.

The required additional information is as follows: 1. Micro-topography Plan It is important to establish micro-topography in wetlands in order to increase diversity. As such, a micro-topography plan should be developed as part of the final grading plan. The plan could include creating as many as five divots, similar to those created by fallen trees, per acre in areas that are to be cleared or graded. Obviously this would not be needed for areas that are not to be cleared or graded. 2. Final Contour Plan Please provide a final contour plan for the Reddicks Creek site and for any other areas that will be graded or scarified. 3. Access Plans Please provide the access routes for heavy equipment at each site. Please indicate that heavy equipment access area will be ripped or otherwise treated to break up potentially compacted soils. 4. Acreage and Community Type Please provide the acreage of each proposed wetland plant community type at each site. Construction Sequence Please provide the construction sequence as it relates to the sediment and erosion control plans.

Meadowview Rd; Suite 204 Greensboro, NC 27404 Dear Dr. McCrain and Nfs. Spangler: We have completed our review of the compensatory wetland mitigation plans for the construction of Randleman Reservoir. These plans addressed efforts to promote wetland ecosystems at the Edgar Branch, Sophia Branch and Bob Branch sites (all in Randolph Co.) Your patience during our review process is appreciated greatly as these plans were reviewed by other staff within the NC Division of Water Quality in addition to myself. All of the Division of Water Quality's concerns are conveyed in this letter. Overall there has been considerable discussion on these plans. The foremost item that has received attention is the amount of maintenance that will be required. Some reviewers have expressed whether the concepts presented represent wetland restoration or wetland creation. In addition, all who have seen the sites have expressed concern on potentially flooding mature forested communities resulting in tree mortality and replacing those communities with imnature trees. Clearly the plans represent an innovative approach to compensatory wetland mitigation, and one in which the outcome is dependent on the skill and experience in managing water levels. We are optimistic that water quality benefits will result from the type of mitigation proposed.

Easley Governor William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources Dr. Gregory Thorpe, Acting Director Division of Water Quality For all plans, including those that have already ? been submitted, specific items C 1 that will need to be addressed include: 1) . Details on how aquatic life will be allowed to pass through the weir structures, 2) The development of a detailed operation and maintenance plan for managing water levels, and training/education for those responsible for operating the weirs, 3) Details on conservation easements, 4) A discussion on how mitigation activities may conflict with restrictions within the 200 foot buffer for the reservoir, 5) The success criterion for hydrology should be modeled from a reference wetland. A better description of the success criterion for wetland hydrology is needed, 6) Compare and contrast the costs and benefits of also conducting stream restoration at these sites and the ideas presented your proposal, and 7) A synopsis of efforts elsewhere in the US that resemble your proposal. Again, thank you for your patience. If you have any questions please contact me. Cordially, Signed copy to follow.

Spangler Environmental and Special Projects Manager Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority Wilmington Building, Suite 204 2216 West'Meadowview Road Greensboro, North Carolina 27407-3430 Dear vls. Spangler: Please reference your letter dated April 27. 2001 in which you requested our comments on the following mitigation plans: Reddicks Creek Hickory Creek Richland Creek Sophia Creek Bobs Branch Edgar Branch It is our understanding that the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority (PTRWA) is planning to construct these sites in order to satisf% the requirements of the Section 401 Water Quality Certification dated March 11, 1999 and Department of the Army permit dated April 6, 2001 that authorized construction of the Randleman Lake on the Deep River, Randolph and Guilford Counties, North Carolina. As described in the Environmental Impact Statement for this project, these sites were selected and the in-stream structures designed to "restore" wetland functions on floodplains adjacent to the selected streams. With the exception of Richland Creek, which will contain a permanent weir structure. the plans call for the construction of flashboard risers that will allow flooding of adjacent stream terraces during the early part of the growing season to create green tree impoundments. )tJ -1- We have no objection to implementation of these plans provided adverse impacts to the existing bottomland hardwood plant communities and stream channels are minimized. The PTRWA should closely monitor the condition of the existing communities and adjust water regimes in the impoundments as necessary to avoid damage. Finally, the in-stream structures were described in the referenced EIS and subsequent Record of Decision as a component of the proposed project, and, therefore, no additional DA authorization will be required for their construction. The yearly monitoring reports described in the mitigation plans should be provided to this office for our review as they are completed. Questions or comments regarding this correspondence may be directed to the undersigned at (910) 251-4725. Sincerely, Scott McLendon Regulatory Division Project Manager Copy furnished: Alexander P.

Meadowview Rd; Suite 204 Greensboro, NC 27404 Dear Dr. McCrain and Ms. Spangler: We have completed our review of the compensatory wetland mitigation plans for the construction of Randleman Reservoir. These_ plans addressed efforts to promote wetland ecosystems at the Edgar Branch, Sophia Branch and Bob Branch sites (all in Randolph Co.) Your patience during our review process is appreciated greatly as these plans were reviewed by other staff within the NC Division of Water Quality in addition to myself. All of the Division of Water Quality's concerns are conveyed in this letter. Overall there has been considerable discussion on these plans. The foremost item that has received attention is the amount of maintenance that will be required. Some reviewers have expressed whether the concepts presented represent wetland restoration or wetland creation. In addition, all who have seen the sites have expressed concern on potentially flooding mature forested communities resulting in tree mortality and replacing those communities with immature trees. Clearly the plans represent an innovative approach to compensatory wetland mitigation, and one in which the outcome is dependent on the skill and experience in managing water levels. We are optimistic that water quality benefits will result from the type of mitigation proposed. ,oa• ?!

As far as comments, I don't specifically remember these sites. However, the concept that we had discussed was to provide some water quality treatment around some of these lager farm areas as well as the from the urban areas discharging into the lake watershed. The greentree impoundments, if maintained and operated properly should provide such water quality treatment and serve to replace the small areas of wetlands impacted by the reservoir. Most of the plans appear to preserve and enhance the existing low forest. The flooding of the these forest areas will kill the less tolerant species which may need to be replaced. Of particular concern may the conversion of some of the drier forest areas shown on the plans. Sorry I have not had time to fully analyze these plans. If you want me to sit in on a discussion or site visit to look at these in more depth let me know.

I looked over (somewhat quickly) the three Randleman mitigation plans (Bob, Edgar and Sophia Branches) and just have a few comments. I guess I am just assuming that you are the one coordinating a response to the Water Authority and Ecoscience. 1. I am wondering if the PTRWA self-imposed 200 foot buffer around the Lake will affect the mitigation. It is my understanding that this buffer was proposed by the Water Authority and their 404 was approved with that buffer. "Development" is restricted in this buffer and I am not sure if their proposed "embankment" structures (ie dams) would be allowable. Perhaps the Water Authority's ordinance has allowances for this. They need to check on this. 2. Speaking of the embankments - this methodology for restoring/creating wetlands is new to me - do you know of any that are in place and are successful? 3. Are they planning to have conservation easements? 4. Will the weir structures allow for aquatic life passage? If so, how? I know that this is going to be a big issue with the wildlife commission. Their general schematic of the structure did not appear to allow for passage. 5. Under their Management Program (8.0) - they need to clarify "periodically" - in (2) where they state, "The Officer will periodically visit the Site......" Monthly? Quarterly? 6. What type of training will the Management Officer receive? This design relies heavily on human control - which means it is subject to human error. If I think of anything else, I let you know.

Wayne Wright, Chief, Regulatory Division U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Box 1890 Wilmington, North Carolina 28402 F D V SUBJ: Final Environmental Impact Statement on Randleman Lake, Guilford and Randolph Counties, North Carolina, December, 2000 Dear Dr. Wright: The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed the referenced document in accordance with the EPA's responsibilities under Section 309 of the Clean Air Act and Section 102 (2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Final Environmental Impact Statement (Final EIS) assesses impacts attendant to constructing a dam and reservoir on the Deep River situated upstream from the town of Randleman in North Carolina. This impoundment is being proposed by the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority (PTRWA) and is to be named Randleman Lake. It will be situated in Guilford and Randolph Counties and is expected to satisfy water demands of the region for the next 50 years. Creating Randleman Lake would flood approximately 3000 acres including 121 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and approximately 28 miles of free-flowing streams. EPA's letter October 6, 1997 to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) rai$ed environmental concerns focusing on several public health issues. Because the proposed lake would be situated downstream of a rapidly urbanizing area, existing and future sources of pollution and nutrients could cause unacceptable levels of eutrophication and threaten the water quality of the lake. Discharges from the City of High Point's Eastside Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) have been and will continue to be a major source of phosphorus and nitrogen. Undesirable algal growth would pose difficulties in meeting the State of North Carolina's chlorophyll a standards of 40 micrograms/L in the upper shallow-bottom reaches of the lake. A second issue stemmed from two contaminated properties being contiguous with the proposed lake property boundary. Both the former Seaboard Chemical Corporation plant property and the City of High Point's landfill sites lie adjacent to the NW arm of the proposed lake, and are sources of contaminated groundwater seeping into the proposed lake. These concerns were shared with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) Division of Water Quality (DWQ), who met with EPA in August, 1999. NCDENR staff members provided strategies to resolve pollutant and nutrient concerns. Internet Address (URL) • http://www.epa.gov Recycled/Recyclable • Printed with Vegetable Oil Based Inks on Recycled Paper (Minimum 3016 Postconsumer) 4- Additional technical studies, provided by the PTRWA , offered site remediation options. Following EPA's evaluation of the new material, EPA's October 19, 1999, letter to USACE stated that the proposed strategies seemed reasonable and that the nutrient management rules adopted by the North Carolina's Environmental Management Commission (EMC) should be given the opportunity to demonstrate that the lake will support its designated uses. If implemented, EPA believes the nutrient control strategies will be effective in controlling algal growth and chlorophyll a in the proposed lake. Potential Eutrophocation of Randleman Lake - A principal issue regarding attainment of the 40 micrograms/Liter chlorophyll a standard was point- and non-point source loadings from the Randleman Lake watershed. Point-source modeling studies indicated that moving the City of High Point's Eastside WWTP discharge away from the shallow water to a deeper point near Freeman Mill would result is significantly lower eutrophication in the upper arm of the Deep River. To address non-point source loadings, NCDEM reclassified the proposed Randleman Lake watershed as WS (Water Supply)-IV, Critical Water Supply Watershed. The EMC adopted Nutrient Management Strategy rules and required all local governments to adopt watershed protection ordinances stipulated under the rules, and both Randolph and Gilford Counties have responded by adopting ordinances that establish water critical areas. The efficacy of implementing Nutrient Management Strategy rules, however, need to be demonstrated as protecting the quality of Randleman Lake water from excessive chlorophyll a. While the Certification No. 3221 issued to the PTRWA pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (401 Certification) does identify changes in watershed protection ordinances adopted by the EMC on November 12, 1998, no chlorophyll a monitoring appears in the 401 Certification. EPA believes that demonstrating efficacy of Nutrient Management Strategy rules is essential and requests that USACE stipulate in their Record of Decision that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for chlorophyll a at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA. Contaminated Groundwater - NCDWQ believes that contaminants found in the groundwater that could potentially threaten lake water quality can be controlled using groundwater diversion, interception, wellpoint pump-and-treat technology, air injection and other means. EPA concurs with NCDWQ's position that it is technically feasible to achieve a drastic reduction in organic chemical pollutants leaving the contaminated sites; however, the key to determining the level of contamination removal is the implementation of a lake water monitoring program. As with the nutrient issues above, the efficacy of the organic chemical control strategies need to be demonstrated as protecting the quality of Randleman Lake water from pollutant levels harmful to public health. No monitoring of organic chemicals appears in the Randleman Lake 401 Certification. EPA requests that USACE stipulate in their Record of Decision that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for organic chemicals at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA. Compensatory Wetland Mitigation - Following our review of the compensatory wetland mitigation proposals in the FEIS, EPA has the following requests/comments. . . i . EPA requests that the USACE stipulate in their Record of decision that the Cone's Folly site be transferred in fee to an appropriate state or federal agency or land conservancy organization. EPA considers ownership in fee to be a much better protection than the granting of conservation easements alone. EPA is interested in the concept of using in-stream structures to create or restore wetlands in the historical floodplain. We caution the applicant that under no circumstances should the structures be designed to provide treatment of storm water because the Clean Water Act clearly prohibits the use of waters of the U.S. (including wetlands) for treatment of wastewater (including storm water). EPA would prefer more natural stream restoration practices as mitigation, where practicable (restoration of geomorphic dimension, pattern, and profile through use of natural materials and grading practices). Although a simpler and probably cheaper installation, the placement of man-made structures in a stream may not produce the ecological dynamics of natural flow restrictions such as topography, and may not produce a permanent restoration. EPA would appreciate being provided more information on this proposal, and the rationale for the use of the structures rather than employing more natural, geomorphic modification techniques. EPA does not recommend the use of greentree impoundments as mitigation (greentree impoundments are shallow habitats created for waterfowl). In summary, EPA believes that the FEIS generally resolves most of our previous technical and environmental concerns. We request that USA-EC include in the Record of Decision the following elements: a) that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for chlorophyll a and organic pollutants at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA; b) that the Cone's Folly site be transferred in fee to an appropriate state or federal agency or land conservancy organization. Regarding wetland mitigation, EPA prefers more natural stream restoration practices, where practicable; created wetlands may not provide treatment areas for wastewater and stormwater; and EPA does not recommend the use of greentree impoundments as mitigation. We appreciate the opportunity to review this document. If more information is needed, please call John Hamilton at 404.562.9617, or Kathy Matthews for wetlands/Section 404 considerations at 404.562.9373.

Ross, Jr., Secretary Department of Environment and Natural Resources Kerr T. Stevens, Director Division of Water Quality March 28, 2001 Dr. Gerald McCrain EcoScience 1101 Haynes St.; Suite 101 Raleigh, NC 27604 Dear Dr. McCrain We have completed our review of three wetland mitigation plans for the construction of the Randleman reservoir. These plans address how compensatory mitigation will be achieved at three sites - Richland, Hickory and Reddicks Creeks. It is our understanding that a total of 10 potential mitigation sites are being considered. The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority has proposed the construction of a 3000-acre reservoir that will become a primary water supply for the Triad region. The construction of this reservoir will unavoidably impact approximately 121 acres of wetlands. Compensatory wetland mitigation of at least 121 acres of restoration or creation is required under North Carolina regulations (15A NCAC 2H .0507). All three wetland mitigation plans are similar in detail and scope. Two primary methods are proposed for wetland restoration. In-stream structures designed to reduce sediment transport capacity and the establishment of a greentree impoundment. Both methods will trap sediment and may promote the establishment of forested wetlands. Water quality concerns with sediment and nutrients have been addressed in a narrative fashion in these three reports. Overall, the three plans are well written. Although the plans were developed to address compensatory wetland mitigation issues, water quality issues were also addressed. We fully support the need to address water quality issues, particularly for projects with anticipated water quality problems. During our discussions at the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority in February 20, 2001 it became apparent that the estimates of the amounts (acres) of restoration to be achieved at each site were not obvious from a cursory review of the plans. The area (acres) for each restoration site in all reports (Table 1) totals 69 acres, but we discussed a total of 89 acres for these three sites. Future reports can be improved by including a brief executive summary that states the type of methods proposed to achieve compensatory wetland mitigation, and the anticipated amount (acres) of restoration that may be achieved.

Although this is admirable goal, it is not clear on how sediment deposition may affect the survival of seedlings of woody plants. Considerable changes in floodplain microtopography can be expected after the in-stream structures and impoundments are constructed. Restoration of Forested Plant Communities All three plans provide details on the proposed plant communities. Species lists include mast- producing species. Overall species selection is very good. However, the proposed Randleman Reservoir has received extensive review by regulatory agencies regarding projected nutrient concentrations. One proposed plant species (Tag Alder, Alnus serrulata) fixes nitrogen and may serve as a source of nitrogen in adjacent waters. The ability of alder to contribute a significant amount of nitrogen to Alaskan lakes is discussed in Wetzel (1983, Limnology, page 231). We recognize the problems with extrapolating research results from Alaska to North Carolina. Even though the relative proportion of nitrogen contributed by tag alder may be small compared to other sources we believe there is insufficient knowledge on this issue and request that tag alder be dropped as a species to be transplanted. Natural reproduction of tag alder is expected. Monitoring Plan Water table elevations and survival of transplanted woody vegetation will be monitored. The water table will be measured in monitoring wells installed in accordance with US Corps of Engineers W RP Technical Note HY-IA-3.1 (Installing Monitoring Wells/Piezometers in Wetlands; August 1993). Automated recording wells are not proposed; thus the frequency of sampling proposed is weekly during spring and early summer and intermittently through the remainder of the growing season. The success criterion is to achieve saturation within one food of the soils surface for 5% of the growing season. The US Army Corps of Engineers uses saturation for 5% of the growing season to establish jurisdiction, but generally 12.5% of the growing season is used to establish successful hydrologic restoration. You can compare restored hydrology with that observed at reference sites. Observations taken more frequently than week (i.e. from automated wells) are preferred, however we recognize the problems that vandalism may impose. Establishment success of transplanted vegetation will be sampled through randomly placed plots (0.11 acre) representing a 4-5% sample at the study sites. In general, species survival is the primary focus of sampling. However, some consideration is provided for the relative density among species. No one species will be allowed to exceed representing 20% of a goal of 320 stems/acre after three years. The plans state "additional stems of a particular species above the 20% threshold will be discarded from the statistical analysis." It is not clear on what Is meant by this statement. In addition it is not clear whether vegetation sampling will include seedlings established naturally. Herbaceous species will be noted, but no quantitative sampling is proposed for this stratum. Species data should include the wetland indicator status (OBL, FACW, etc.) as part of the data sets and summaries. Submittal of Data The plans propose submittal of data in tabular or electronic (Excel) format. I prefer data submittal in an electronic format. The use of MS Excel is acceptable, however spreadsheets must be constructed as simply as possible and easily converted to text files so that the data can be read by other statistical software packages. References Larsen et al. (1980), which is cited on the figures for "Reference: Lake Shoreline" is not listed in the "References" section of the reports.

We suggest they redo the plans to restore streams naturally and then monitor to see how much wetlands they get. 2) There are too many structures involved in all three plans. This is a ,0/??U (yam long-term maintenance nightmare. The structures are being over-used to get as much wetland as possible, instead of a more natural approach. 3) Chewacla Soils-this is creation, not restoration. These systems were < terrace systems with wetlands sporadically found in the bottomlands. They are creating a swamp, not a bottomland hardwood. 4) The success criteria for hydrology being proposed is not acceptable (5-12.5% of growing season). This denotes that there is wetland hydrology, not that there is the proper hydrology. They need to find references, monitor these references, and then restore these systems to match the reference systems. They need to take into account overbank flooding (duration and frequency). They do not address the replacement function very well in any of these plans.

I looked over (somewhat quickly) the three Randleman mitigation plans (Bob, Edgar and Sophia Branches) and just have a few comments. I guess I am just assuming that you are the one coordinating a response to the Water Authority and Ecoscience. 1. I am wondering if the PTRWA self-imposed 200 foot buffer around the Lake will affect the mitigation. It is my understanding that this buffer was proposed by the Water Authority and their 404 was approved with that buffer. "Development" is restricted in this buffer and I am not sure if their proposed "embankment" structures (ie dams) would be allowable. Perhaps the Water Authority's ordinance has allowances for this. They need to check on this. 2. Speaking of the embankments - this methodology for restoring/creating wetlands is new to me - do you know of any that are in place and are successful? 3. Are they planning to have conservation easements? 4. Will the weir structures allow for aquatic life passage? If so, how? I know that this is going to be a big issue with the wildlife commission. Their general schematic of the structure did not appear to allow for passage. 5. Under their Management Program (8.0) - they need to clarify "periodically" - in (2) where they state, "The Officer will periodically visit the Site......" Monthly? Quarterly? 6. What type of training will the Management Officer receive? This design relies heavily on human control - which means it is subject to human error. If I think of anything else, I let you know.

The reservoir will serve principally as a drinking water supply to the cities of Greensboro and High Point, and to smaller towns in the Piedmont Triangle region. The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority prepared an environmental impact statement (EIS) for the project in 1991. The EIS demonstrated the need for the project and reviewed the probable impacts of the reservoir on various portions of the watershed, such as surrounding wetlands, archeological sites, and fish habitat in the river. As part of the EIS, Black & Veatch predicted the availability and quality of water in the reservoir. The watershed of the proposed reservoir encompasses a wide range of urbanized and rural areas. The High Point municipal landfill and wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), and the abandoned property of a chemical company (Seaboard) are located very near the proposed reservoir's boundaries. Groundwater at the chemical company site has been contaminated with several organic compounds and recent evidence suggests that some of the contamination has migrated towards the proposed reservoir. A major concern has been the potential impact of these sites on reservoir water quality. The layout of the area is given on Figure 2. The probable impacts of contaminants from the landfill,.the chemical company site, and the wastewater treatment plant on reservoir water quality were assessed using a model developed by Black & Veatch. The model predicted the concentrations of numerous inorganic and organic constituents by computing a mass balance in the reservoir based on historical streamflow data. An inventory of the watershed identified several potential sources of inorganic or organic constituents which could affect the reservoir water quality. Pollutant loads from the wastewater treatment plant, upstream flows, and the other permitted discharges were computed using historical data collected from numerous sources. The landfill and the chemical company site are adjacent to each other, and the landfill borders the Deep River. Data1chemical loads contributed to the reservoir by contaminated groundwater from these two sources were also included based on data from various sources. It was assumed the reservoir was completely mixed and the constituents were removed only through withdrawals for drinking water and releases over the spillway. No allowances were made for chemical losses by adsorption, volatilization, or reactions of the Legend Landfill Monitoring Wells Installed Before Draft EIS Installed After Final EIS • Seaboard Chemical Monitoring Wells 0 BLACK &VEATCH PROGRESS BY DESIGN Randleman Reservoir 1994 EIS Update Monitoring Well Locations Figure 2 various compounds, so the model results were conservative. The results suggested that the landfill and the chemical company site posed no threat to reservoir water quality. The model was run for several compounds; in all cases, the computation yielded the ma..,dmum monthly concentration and average monthly concentration over the 68 years of historical streamflow data. The Draft EIS was submitted to state and federal agencies for review, while additional studies were conducted at the landfill and the chemical company site as part of unrelated environmental assessments. This information, which became available to some of the government agencies during the review process, revealed that the estimated quantity of contaminated groundwater entering the reservoir from the chemical company site was low. In 1991, the model was rerun using the updated information for a higher groundwater flow, and the new results were incorporated into the Final EIS. The 1991 modeling results showed pollutant concentration in the reservoir would be higher than originally estimated, but still considerably lower than their respective detection limits. Additional information concerning the concentration of organic contaminants in the landfill and the hvdrogeology of the region was obtained in 1992 after the Final EIS. Based on the 1992 data, it was found that the modeling results in both the Draft EIS and Final EIS had overestimated the concentrations of the toxic compounds in the groundwater. Thus, the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority requested Black & Veatch to update the toxics model, summarize the newest results, and review all pertinent work completed since the Draft EIS was submitted in 1990. This current report summarizes the updated modeling results and presents a review of the work associated with the prediction of toxic compounds in Randleman Reservoir water. A summary of the evaluation of groundwater quality at the landfill and on the chemical company's property, completed for the City of High Point in October 1992, is included. These data are compared to the data used in the EIS so that trends of the changes in water quality in the vicinity can be evaluated. Data used for this modeling effort are compared to the data used in the original model for the EIS. Finally, the results from this most recent effort are summarized. Review of Water Quality. Data A variety of data sources were used to estimate potential contributions of toxic compounds into the reservoir. The EPA STORET database, and data from the US Geological Survey and from the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health 25291.001 3 April 22, 1994 and Natural Resources were reviewed; the quality of water entering the reservoir from various sources was based on this database. Specifically, data from groundwater investigations at the Seaboard chemical company site were used to estimate the quantity of groundwater and concentrations of pollutants migrating off the site. Some additional data on the Seaboard site hydrogeology became available after completion of the draft EIS, but before completion of the final EIS, and still further information on both water quality and hydrogeology has been obtained since the completion of the final EIS. The databases, the time period covered, and the chronology of their use are summarized in Table 1. As previously discussed, this update used new data collected at the landfill. New data were also obtained at the Seaboard site by Geraghty & Miller, Inc. as part of clean-up activities there. The new Seaboard information was considered but was not used in the updated model since data collected at the landfill better represented contamination reaching the Deep River. In addition, a letter dated January 11, 1994, was received from Mr. Nelson, Chairman of the Guilford County Advisory Board for Environmental Quality, containing comments on the modeling work in the EIS. These comments were considered and incorporated into the updated modeling conducted for this report. 25291.001 4 April 22, 1994 v G .-• C/7 H U_ LU C V7 C (L J O V ? G w v X X X X x x x O a?

The most significant of these were the High Point Wastewater Treatment Plant, the abandoned Seaboard Chemical solvent recovery plant (the Seaboard site), the City of High Point Landfill, surface water inflows to the Deep River, and 42 NPDES permitted discharges (mostly low-flow, package type wastewater treatment plants). Based on the review of these sources, it was concluded that the majority of the inorganic pollutant load entering the reservoir would come from the Deep River. The concentration of pollutants in the Deep River is low, but the volume of water that enters the reservoir from upstream dwarfs all other contributions, including those from the wastewater treatment plants. The initial review revealed that organic compounds were migrating to the river primarily from the Seaboard site while infiltration from the landfill was contributing some inorganic contaminants. Unfortunately, information on the geohydrolo«v_beneath the landfill was very sparse; the landfill lies between the chemical company site and the river, so the computation of groundwater flow from these sites was based on assumptions about the aquifer's depth and hydraulic conductivity. The volume of the water from the landfill and the Seaboard site (through groundwater infiltration) was very small compared to other flows, but the presence of high concentrations of organic contaminants at the Seaboard site and inorganics in the landfill warranted their inclusion in the assessment. Inorganic Compounds The model results demonstrated that the concentrations of inorganic pollutants in the reservoir were affected primarily by the concentrations of these pollutants in the upstream flows. The wastewater treatment plant effluent would significantly raise the concentrations of many of the modeled inorganic constituents, including chromium, copper, nickel, and zinc. With the wastewater treatment plant effluent discharged into the reservoir, the average concentration of all inorganic compounds modeled was less than 25 ug/L in all cases. Further, this assessment was conservative because the model did not take into account chemical loss through adsorption (and sedimentation) or volatilization. The modeling results indicated that some inorganic contamination is contributed from the landfill, but the effect is too small to be quantifiable. 25291.001 6 April 21, 1994 Organic Compounds Analysis of the organic contamination from the landfill and the Seaboard site was complicated by the proximity of the two sites. The Seaboard site is upgradient from both the landfill and the Deep River, so any contamination from the site must migrate through the landfill before it reaches the river. At the time of the Draft EIS, only limited analysis had been conducted for organic contamination in the landfill. Five organic compounds were modeled. These were chosen because the, had been detected in four of the six monitoring wells installed on the Seaboard site. Seaboard monitoring well No. 3 (denoted as S-3 on Figure 2) was selected to represent contamination from this site because it was downgradient from the r::ost heavily contaminated area and near the edge of the property. The highest concentrations recorded in this well were used in the model as the input to the resen-oir. Groundwater flow was estimated from a limited amount of data collected in the mid-1980's. Unfortunately, this data included no information on the hydrogeology of the area. Assuming a contaminant plume width of 350 feet at the river and a plume depth of 20 feet, the groundwater flow from the Seaboard site to the reservoir was estimated to be approximately 450 gpd. The average concentrations of ail pollutants predicted by the model were below their respective water quality standards and their detection limits. However, subsequent studies by state geologists at the Seaboard site and by Environmental Investigations, Inc., at the landfill revealed that aquifer characteristics were different. Final EIS While there were no comments on the draft EIS concerning the inorganics analyses, there was concern over some modeling assumptions for the organic pollutants. Hydrogeologists with the North Carolina Division of Solid Waste took issue with the 450 gpd flow rate. Their calculations, based on higher values for hydraulic conductivity and hydraulic gradient, indicated that as much as 5000 Qpd would enter the reservoir. The model was revised to incorporate a contribution of 5,000 gpd from the Seaboard site. Even at this greater flow rate, the average concentration of the five organic contaminants did not exceed 0.35 uQ L, and all contaminant concentrations were below both their respective water quality standards and their minimum detection limits. Given the low value and the inherent conservatism of the model (no provisions for pollutant reduction in the water column through sedimentation, volatilization, or reaction), it was concluded that even with the 25291.001 7 April 21, 1994 higher flows from the Seaboard site, water quality in the proposed rest:-voir would not be affected. The revised results were included in the Final EIS and are summarized in Table 2. Table 2 Average concentration of modeled organics in the Draft and Final EIS.

Several compounds have been identified in groundwater samples withdrawn from the landfill, many of which are regulated in finished drinking water. Thus, it was considered reasonable to rerun the model using the new information. Summary of October, 1992 Groundwater Investigation of Landfill During the Draft EIS evaluation there were no data to characterize the contaminant plume in the landfill beyond the chemical company property boundary. Thus, there was no way to determine the areal (horizontal) extent of the contaminant plume, so estimates used in the model were based on numerous assumptions. This gap in the database was filled by a study of the groundwater quality at the landfill by Environmental Investigations, Inc., submitted to the City of High Point in October 1992. The study characterized both the geological morphology and water quality in the aquifer beneath the landfill. The landfill overlies a shallow aquifer averaging 20 25291.001 8 April 21, 1994 feet deep connected to a larger, deeper aquifer within the granitic bedrock. Significant organic contamination was detected in the deep groundwater in landfill Monitoring Well No. 7, which is nearest the Seaboard site. Contamination to a lesser extent was also detected in landfill Monitoring Well No. 3 downgradient from the chemical company property. It is apparent from this investigation that contamination is limited primarily to the deeper aquifer along a narrow zone approximately as wide as the Seaboard property line. Most of the other wells located along the river, including landfill Monitoring Wells No. 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, and 13 showed little or no evidence of organic contamination. Contamination in the deep aquifer is detailed on Figure 3, which shows the extent of the plume of total volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as of June 1992. These results suggest that the volume of contaminated groundwater which could enter the reservoir is slightly less than the 5,000 gpd assumed in the Final EIS. The revised hydrogeological data was used to better predict the flow.of contaminated groundwater into the reservoir. The volume of water that enters the reservoir from the aquifer was recalculated based on the new information. A comparison of the hydrogeological data used in the revised model, the Draft EIS, and the Final EIS, is given in Table 3. Calculation of groundwater flow in the Draft EIS was based on Darcy's law, which estimates groundwater flow from the hydraulic conductivity and hydraulic gradient at the site. The values used to compute the flow have changed with each update. However, the values presented in this update are the most accurate, because they were actually measured in the landfill. The other values were based on measurements made within the boundaries of the chemical company. The study by Environmental Investigations, Inc., also characterized the organic plume in the aquifer beneath the landfill. As the contamination is carried through the aquifer, it is dispersed by the flow of the groundwater through the fractures of the lower aquifer and the soil matrix of the upper aquifer. Thus, in the original evaluation, the highest measured pollutant concentration in the monitoring well furthest downgradient from the suspected source of contamination on the chemical plant property was assumed to be the concentration in the groundwater entering the reservoir. At the time the Draft EIS was written this assumption was considered conservative, because the closest part of the Seaboard site is more than 500 feet from the river. An additional 500 feet would probably result in a significant amount of dispersion, further reducing the concentration of pollutants entering the reservoir. 25291.001 9 April 21, 1994 Notes: Plumes from Evironmental Investigations report.

(3) Values used in this update based on Groundwater and Surface Water Investigation, Riverdale Road Landfill, High Point X C. by Environ.-iental Investigations, October 1992. (4) Shallow aquifer = 20 ft; Deep aquifer = 100 ft. Groundwater samples were taken from several monitoring wells installed throughout the landfill. Some of the monitoring wells are nested (wells are nested by installing several wells at the same place but at different elevations in the aquifer), which facilitates the determination of vertical flow of Groundwater through the aquifer and the vertical extent of the plume. One set of monitoring wells was positioned near the river, along the hydraulic gradient of the groundwater and downgradient from the chemical company property. After reviewing the position of this cluster of monitoring wells, it was concluded that samples from these wells would be representative of the groundwater entering the reservoir. Thus, sampling results from these wells were used as input into the revised toxics model. Samples from the 25291.001 10 April 21, 1994 uppermost well (No. 313) were assumed to 'Et representative of water quality in the upper aquifer, less than 20 feet from the gr2??nd surface and samples from the deep well (No. 3C) were assumed to be repres°ntative of water quality in the lower aquifer, which is at least 40 feet deep. Data from this cluster showed that the concentrations of some organic contaminant-s %vere greatest in the lower aquifer, while others were more heavily concentrated in t:--- upper aquifer. Data Input into Revised Model The information from this investigari-n was used to revise the model. The organic load from the landfill was divided nto the load from the upper aquifer, assumed to be 20 feet deep, and the load fry -1 the lower aquifer, assumed to be 100 feet deep. In this way, the different concer.:-ations recorded in the monitoring well cluster could be used. Table 3 presents concentrations of the five organic compounds modeled in the Draft EIS as well as the maximum concentrations of these compounds measured in Landfill Monitorin_ Well No. 3. Several pollutants which are regulated in drinking water were also d--tected in the monitoring well cluster; their =cimum concentrations in wells No. --B and 3C are also presented. In all cases, the concentrations used i- the Draft EIS are significantly higher than those measured in the 1991-1992 sampling period. In addition, there is significant contamination in the lower aquife-: this had been ignored by the modeling approach used in the Draft EIS and Fina: EIS. The estimate of chemical load entering the reservoir has declined signif::_antly because both the groundwater infiltration rate and chemical concentrations have decreased. The updated version of the Randelma- Reservoir toa?cs model was run using the values summarized in Table 4, which lists separate concentrations for the upper and lower portions of the aquifer. The ariodel computes the monthly average concentration of a given contaminant. The -!ass of chemical entering the reservoir is first determined by multiplying the source concentration by the volume of water from the source. itilonthly streamflow records collected on the Deep River at Randleman between 1929 and 1988 were us?d to compute the reservoir's volume. The volumes were computed by adding ups:.-tam flows to the previous month's 25291.001 11 April 22, 1994 Table 4 Comparison of pollutant concentrations from Seaboard chemical site.

Chemical concentration was then computed by dividing the mass of chemical in the reservoir by the calculated reservoir volume. Results Y The average and maximum calculated monthly concentrations of all pollutants listed in Table 4 were determined in the same manner as used in the EIS. The results of the computer runs are summarized and compared with their respective drinking water limits in Table 5. In all cases, the computed averages and maximum values were significantly below the pollutants respective SDWA Maximum Contaminant Limits (MCL.s). The highest computed concentration was 0.007 ug/L for 1,2-dichloroethene, which is significantly less than the 70 ug/L limit for cis-l,2-dichloroethene and even more so in comparison with the 100 ug/L limit for trans-l,2-dichloroethene. In fact, the average concentrations listed in Table 5 for all five compounds modeled in the original study are less than the computed averages from the Final EIS. As anticipated, the decline in loading also drooped the predicted concentration in the reservoir. In all cases the predicted concentrations are at least 500 times less than the MCLs. As with the original model, the values computed here are somewhat conservative. The model contains no provisions for chemical losses such as volatilization or sorption onto sediment. These are very important pathways for the removal of pollutants, particularly organic constituents, from the water column. Furthermore, this model predicts the concentration in the raw water prior to any treatment and assumes that the reservoir is well mixed. In fact, there will be concentration gradients across the reservoir because the contaminant sources will be in the upper reaches of the reservoir whereas the water treatment plant intake will presumably be close to the dam. Thus, these most recent modeling efforts reinforce the conclusion of the Final EIS that neither the landfill nor the Seaboard site should have any significant impact on the water quality in Randleman Reservoir. 25291.001 13 April 22, 1994 Table 5 Summary of updated model results.

As you know, our department has approved the Environmental Impact Statement for the proposed Randleman Lake. The North Carolina Environmental Management Commission (EMC) has granted the project a certificate authorizing the acquisition of land by eminent domain and the transfer of water from one river basin to another as required by the proposed operation of the project. As you are also aware, there has been a public debate about the suitability of the proposed lake for drinking water. The EMC is aware of this debate and also knows that an extensive effort is underway to plan the clean up of the Seaboard Chemical and High Point landfill sites, both of which are near the proposed reservoir. As Randleman Lake proceeds through its planning process, the Division of Environmental Management will need to issue a 401 water quality certification as a part of the Federal 404 permit and the Commission will need to reclassify the waters of the lake for use as a public water supply source. Being aware of these future decisions about Randleman Lake, the EMC has requested a review of projected water quality at Randleman Lake in the light of any new information that may have emerged from the clean up plans for the two waste sites, and any other relevant water quality information. The Chairman of the Commission has asked this review to occur on March 9, 1995, at the regular meeting of the Commission. From talking with you and Representative Arlie Culp, I have become aware that the Authority is working hard on these water quality issues and has hired an independent consultant to review the water quality studies done by Black and Veatch. I also understand that you are having some additional evaluation done by Black and Veatch. The March EMC meeting will be a good opportunity for you to make the EMC aware of the attention that you have given to these water quality issues. 0.

For this reason, I have asked the divisions in the department who are concerned with this project to assemble all of the issues, data, and information that they have. I have attached this information to this letter so that you will have it as you prepare for the March 8 meeting. In order for us to prepare for the report to the EMC and to make sure that we have covered all of the relevant issues, I believe that it is important for us to have a technical staff meeting ahead of time. I invite you and your consultants to meet with representatives from our department on February 27, 1995, to review all of the issues, data, and modeling work related to water quality at Randleman Lake so that we can resolve any issues before the EMC presentation. This meeting has been scheduled for the Archdale Building in Raleigh from 11:00 to 1:00.

This impact will require compensatory mitigation probably through creation of wetlands. To date, no 404 Permit application has been received by DEM. DEM staff have had preliminary meetings with consultants from the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority concerning a possible mitigation approach which would combine wetland creation with watershed protection via, regional stonnwatcr ponds. It is likely that obtaining the 404 Permit will take up to several years unless numerous, thorough preapplication meetings are held by the Authority with DEM and the Cotes of Engineers (COE). To date, these meetings have not been held nor are they scheduled. The Corps of Engineers will have to develop, circulateXand eventually approve an EIS for this project. Phis document can use the existing reports done Wthe authority. DEM and the COE will not be able to conclude their regulatory responsibilities until the document is finalized. This will also add to delays in the project. T'he mitigation plan will also be a part of the FIS. The EPA, COE and DEM will review the project to detennine whether thcrc are any practicable alternatives to the dam and then (if there are none) whether the wedand loss (from flooding) has been adequately replaced through mitigation. In addition, DEM's decision will be based on the compliance of the lake with water quality standards. Based on modeling to date, the water quality standard of concern will be chlorophyll a. Ilte state water quality standard is 40 u&/I. The consultants model shows that avt.1-Age levels in the uppermost anti of Randleman Lake will be about 90 ug/I without extensive WWTP improvements, 81 ug/l with an effluent concentration of 1.0 ntg/l P frorn the WWI 1-1, 75 ug/I with an effluent concenuaLori of 0.5 ug/l P from the WWTI1, and 53 ug/l Without the WWTP. All these are well in excess of the relevant water quality standard. In other portions of the lake predicted chlorophyll a levels appear to be generally less ih ut the water quality standard. DEM believes that a 401 Certification can probably be issued for this project if strong measures are taken to control or manage nutri ent inputs (especially 11) into the upper arrn of die lake. It is very possible to combine these measures with the wetland mitigation that will be. required for this project. One possible approach would be to design a laigc portion of the upper inn(s) of the lake to create freshwater marshes and hotton)land hardwood forests. These areas would 1) remove excessive nutrients before they reach the lake and 2) satisfy the mitigation requirements for the 404 13enrtit and 401 Certification. Control of future (and perhaps existing) urban dcVcloptnent in the watershed will also he essential to insure adequate water quality in the rescrvior. DEM looks forward to working with the Authority to develop a watershed inar?agement plan which will allow the timely issuance of a 401 Certification and will provide an acceputble soure:c of water for the region. We suggest that the model for the watershed be revisited to identify specific .ciit s.,urces, potential load reductions based oil specific controls and to determine the likely algal response; CO the controls. - ------ Post-it' Fax Notc i6/1 _ I " °' ? 7o From Co /O •pi t.o Pti e a Phone u Fax a ax u randlcrnn.ltr State of North Carolina Department of Environment, FIFAA Health and Natural Resources A4YA Division of Environmental Management James B.

Frederick Dr. Russ Lea Triangle Wetland Consultants Post Office Box 33604 Raleigh, NC 27636 Dear Drs. Frederick and Lea: Subject: Draft Wetland Mitigation Plan Randleman Lake Guilford and Randolph Counties The following comments are offered in response to your request that the Division of Environmental Management (DEM) review the subject document which outlines the mitigation plan for the proposed Randleman Lake. The draft mitigation plan has been developed to address the loss of 120.7 acres of wetlands that will result from the construction of the 3,045 acre water supply reservoir. The draft mitigation plan also proposes measures to protect the water quality of the reservoir. These comments are in no way intended to imply that the DEM has made any decision concerning the 401 Water Quality Certification which will be required for this project. Listed below are issues that should be addressed in the final mitigation plan. 1. page 1. The text indicates that the mitigation proposal will include wetland creation, restoration and preservation. The plan only discusses wetland creation and the restoration and preservation of upland forests. Is there any wetland restoration and preservation? 2. page 1. The text indicates that >50 acres of shallow littoral zone marsh will develop around the margins of the reservoir. Include a map which shows the areas where these marshes are likely to develop. 3. page 1. The DEM requests that all documents related to the construction, monitoring and remedial actions (if needed) be sent to this office. 4. page 3. The project description should include the proposed stormwater impoundments. 5. page 3. Provide documentation on the location and size of the "3000 acre" upland buffer above 682 ft MSL. The description of the buffers on pages 6-9 and 14 do not add up to 3000 acres. 6. page 12. Provide a summary of the tree and shrub species that will be planted in each P.O.

The plantings within each zone should be randomized unless there is a reason for planting in groups or rows. 7. page 12. An estimate of the acres of wetlands that will be created in the wet flat woodland zone should be included. If this goal is not met then the wetland acres that are not created in this zone can be addressed in the contingency plan. 8. page 16. The proposed stormwater impoundments will require Section 404 permits and 401 Water Quality Certifications. What is the location of the four impoundment sites that were eliminated? Why were these locations eliminated? The size of the watersheds and the location of these impoundments on permanent streams is a concern. Document the need for impoundments of this size and the reasons for the preferred locations. 9. page 16. How many acres of emergent marsh, wet meadow, etc. are expected to develop within these impoundments. 10. page 22. The Management and Protection Plan should be included in the final mitigation proposal. 11. page 23. What is the proposed length of monitoring for the mitigation areas? The document indicates both 3 and 5 years. 12. page 25. Justify the selection of 1 sampling plot per 5 acres. 13. page 25. Justify the use of the success criteria of trees being 6 feet tall instead of the trees surviving for 3 years after planting. 14. page 26. The Contingency Plan indicates that additional mitigation efforts will take place only for failure to successfully create 80 acres of wetlands. The impact for this project is 120. 7 acres. Explain the rationale for the 80 acres. 14. The plan is not clear on the number of acres of wetlands that will result from these proposed activities. An estimate of the number of acres of wetlands that will result from each of the activities described in this document must be included in the final plan. This information should be presented in a table. 15. What other measures will be taken by the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority to protect the reservoir from excessive inputs of sediments and nutrients? 16. This plan does not provide sufficient information to make a determination on the adequacy of this proposal to compensate for the loss of 120.7 acres of wetlands. Therefore, DEM may have additional comments concerning the mitigation proposal once the above questions/comments are addressed. If you have any questions concerning these comments please contact Ron Ferrell at 9191733-1786. Si cerely, K? J n R.

Anderson; ?fedmont Region Coordinator Tiabitat Conservation Program DATE: June 5, 1996 SUBJFC'1'- Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Plan for Randleman Lake, Randolph and Guildford Counties, NC Stall' biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the subject pmjcc:t. our comments are provided in accordance with certain provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C. 466 et seq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended, 16 U.S,C. 661-667d) and North Carolina General Statues (G.S. 113-131 et seq.). Pursuant to our recent phone conversation, we understand that there are still fundamental problems with the purpose and need of the Randleman Reservoir Prgicct. Because the project is still subject to change, we cannot provide any definitive comments on the Wetland Mitigation Plan provided by Triangle Consultants on behalf of the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority. During our review, several problems with the proposed mitigation plan were identified. To prevent future delays and expense, we are providing the following preliminary comments on the submitted wetland mitigation plan; 1. We question the statement (section 2.2 Habitat Types, page S)... "However, most fiyh in the area are adaptahle to the lake environment and overall spccivs composition should not change drastically." Many of the species characteristic of stream habitats will be extirpated from the areas inundated by the reservoir. Remaining stream habitat is likely to be adversely impacted from secondary development, which will further threaten species associated with lobe habitats, Additionally, this statement tends to contradict the statement on page 12 that states: "This lotic fishery resource will be replaced by a typically lentic, flat water fishery." 2. The 11,lan to maintain a reservoir pool at an elevation of 682 feet MSL between March 26 and April 22 and then drop and maintain the level at 680 feet MST, between April 22 and November 6 is likely to cause adverse impacts to a number of recreational fish species. Crappic, bream and largemouth bass nests could be dewatered if the reservoir is dropped two feet during the spawning season. Tliercf6re, to pr©vent adverse impnets to spawning fish the water level would need to remain at 682 ft MSL until at least June 1. However, a long inundation period during the growing season may adversely impact many of the bitttomland s ec ies that are scheduled for planting. Other management strategies that do not cause a decrease in water level between April I and June 1 should be examined. Bringing the water 1CWRC,HCP,FALLS LAKE TEL:919-528-9839 Jun 05'96 16:28 No.003 P.03 Draft Wetland Mitigation Plan 2 June 5, 1996 Randleman Reservoir level down to 680 ft MST, by March 15 and holding the level at 680 ft MSL until June 1 would minimize most impacts to spawning fish. However, this regime is likely to negatively impact ground nesting birds including wild turkey poppulations if the areas between 680 and 682 11 MS.1, are flooded during early summer. Managcrnent of rc rervoir pool elevation should consider the impacts to both aquatic and terrestrial resource's. 3. We question the proposal to create Piedmont bottomland forests on existing fields between 680-6921't MSL. It is our understanding that typical bottomland forests are subject to over bank flooding a number of times during an annual cycle. While flooding the area between 680-682 ft MSL is likely to produce some sort of wetland, the vegetation may be more typical of a coastal plain swarnp forest dominated by bald cypress and swamp blackgutm While a swamp forest will provide some wildlife benefits, it will not provide the diversity or value of a Piedmont bottomland forest. Therefore, additional mitigation should be provided to cotnpensate fir the loss of bottomland hardwood, 4. Some areas between 680-682 ft MSL will be cleared and left to naturally regenerate. The document states in section 4,5.1 that these areas are likely to be dominated by red maple and sweetgurn. These areas should be replanted with species that will provide greater diversity and value to wildlife. 5. Installation of wood duck boxes will help to compensate for lost nesting sites; however, tlicsc should only be installed if they are constructed of durable materials such as cypress, provided with predator guards, and maintained on an annual basis, 6. Proposed tree and shrub plantings should be modified. Swectgum should be delctcd from the mixture because it will provide little value to wildlife and will occur naturally. Other adjustments will be recommended depending on the revised reservoir and mitigation plan. 7. Simply meeting a criteria of 320 stems/acre survival of preibrred canopy species at the end of five years does not insure diversity. Success criteria should include a survival rate for all planted species. 8. Whilc we concur with leaving a buffer strip along streams, additional information needs to be included concerning the width of buffer strips and how loose soils will be stabilized to prevent sedimentation to downstream habitats, 9. There is no discussion of mitigation for the destruction of approximately 23 miles of strca.ms. To mitigate for these impacts we request that forested riparian corridors of 400-800 feet be preserved on suitable downstream stretches of the Deep River. We would also like to take this opportunity to remind you that we requested in earlier reviews that surveys be performed for terrestrial and aquatic species. Although there is a mierence in the mit.itution plan to a report prepared by J. H. Carter 1993, we have no rceord of teviewing this survey report and look forward to reviewing this in the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). Also, please refer to memoranda from Richard B. Hamilton dated February 4, 1991 and October 14, 1991 for other specitic items we requested to be addressed in the 0S. Thank you 1br tic opportunity to review this draft mitigation plan.

Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director June 5, 1996 Drs. Doug Frederick and Russ Lea Triangle Wetland Consultants Post Office Box 33604 Raleigh, NC 27636 Dear Drs. Fredrick and Lea: &To? FAA ?Jaj 0 EDO E-= F1 Thank you for providing a copy of the Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Plan (March 27, 1996) for Randleman Lake. This plan provides an informative and succinct description of the wetland issues associated with the development of reservoir and is well written, well organized and includes many citations to the scientific literature. My review of the plan focused primarily on assessing whether lost wetland functions will be replaced but I have provided comments on many related issues. Overall the plan focuses on the replacement of lost wetland area and provides a good discussion of the uses of wetlands by wildlife. However, the initial water quality conditions of this reservoir are expected to promote primary productivity resulting in high concentrations of chlorophyll a, particularly in the upper arms of the lake. This is clearly a concern that needs to be addressed before a Section 401 water quality certification can be issued. Landscape level approaches to address and solve water quality problems are now beginning to be developed and examples exist in the scientific literature. The statement "environmental issues yet to be identified will have to be resolved through the extended review process and thus will be addressed by later versions of this mitigation plan" (page 2) indicates the importance of the plan and the need to go beyond the traditional 'this for that' philosophy and wildlife concerns associated with compensatory mitigation. The Division of Environmental Management (DEM) has serious concerns about the water quality of the reservoir particularly the projected chlorophyll a concentrations in the upper arms of the lake. These projected concentrations will exceed the water quality standard of 40 µg/1 for chlorophyll a. Section 401 water quality certifications are issued only when an applicant of a project can show (or the DEM can determine) that the effects of the project will not violate water quality standards resulting in a significant loss of use. These concerns have been conveyed to the applicant at several meetings. In addition, the opportunities that compensatory mitigation can provide to address water quality concerns also were conveyed at those meetings. The present mitigation plan does not target water quality concerns regarding stormwater runoff and chlorophyll a. One possible approach to the water quality and wetland mitigation issues could involve the restoration, creation and enhancement of wetlands along tributaries to the proposed reservoir throughout the watershed. This idea was proposed to the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority by Mr. John Domey (DEM) during the December 6, 1995 meeting. A similar approach is being undertaken by the City of High Point in the watershed for Oak Hollow Lake.

A total of 3,045 acres will be inundated permanently when the reservoir is completed and filled This total includes approximately 119 acres of wetlands and 195 acres of stream channels. The mitigation plan proposes to establish ca. 380 acres of bottomland forest between 680 and 682 ft MSL. The establishment of a 200 ft buffer from the 680-682 pool level should provide additional wildlife habitat once secondary succession is underway. If the created wetlands meet success criteria and provide appropriate levels of functions, then the project would likely be released from oversight from the regulating agencies. Specific Comments Executive Summary The public review for this project is not complete and no consensus has been reached regarding alternatives. The statement "the project has been through the public interest review, and a consensus has been reached with regard to the water dependent nature of the project and the lack of feasible alternative sites" should be eliminated from the report. The shallow littoral areas created when the reservoir is filled could and should be planted with appropriate submersed, floating-leaved and emergent species. The locations of these areas should be identified and a list of appropriates species should be provided in the mitigation plan. These vegetated areas will provide valuable fish, wildlife and water quality functions. A summary of the types of mitigation proposed should occur in the executive summary and include both the total quantity (number of sites) as well as total area. Hydrogeom=hic Types The hydrogeomorphic (HGM) approach to classifying wetlands is intriguing and informative. A description of the method would benefit those who are not familiar with it and may be reading the mitigation plan. How information from the HGM classification will be used in regulatory decisions is not clear. Presently the HGM classification is not required, and its use is solely voluntary. I caution against implementing any extensive field studies, including the use of HGM for regulatory purposes until the methods are discussed with the regulating agencies. Forest Productivity A major attribute of the mitigation plan is incorporating and citing the results of other studies. The comments the plan makes pertaining to forest productivity among sites situated on a topographic gradient (p. 8 and 12) are interesting. The paradigm that forest communities on a seasonally inundated topographic position have higher primary productivity than communities on dry or more permanently saturated sites has not been well established A competing hypothesis (Mitsch and Rust 1984) holds that the benefits of periodic inputs of nutrients and water may be diminished by stresses associated with anaerobic soils or drought. Megonigal et. al. (accepted to Ecology, being revised) tested these hypotheses and concluded that: "...the subsidy-stress hypothesis does not adequately describe patterns of net primary productivity across Southeastern US floodplain forests. Conditions of periodic flooding and, flowing water do not often lead to high rates of productivity compared with upland forests. However, extensive flooding is nearly always a significant stress of forest productivity..." page 3 Groundwater recharge/discharge Groundwater discharge and recharge are often cited as functions of a wetland and are alluded to in the mitigation plan. Although these are important processes, they are more a function of landscape position than a specific type of habitat (i.e. wetlands). I mention this primarily to focus attention on the landscape instead of smaller ecosystems contained within the landscape. Exceptional Habitat Areas (p. 10) This section mentions the existence of seasonal ponds and states that "excellent seasonal pond creation opportunities exist in open fields at the upstream limits of the proposed reservoir." The discussion of these exceptional habitat areas and seasonal ponds focuses primarily on mature forests and the benefits of seasonal ponds for amphibians. However, if excellent wetland creation opportunities exist in the upstream limits of the proposed reservoir, these also should be explored to address water quality concerns. Management Criteria for Buffer Area (F. 15) A management plan for the buffer area should be developed and address a variety of concerns. Water quality issues that can be addressed include wetlands, stormwater and control of erosion and sedimentation. Proposed Pool Level Management p. 16) Ensuring proper hydrological conditions for the growth and establishment of the proposed created wetlands will be necessary. However, these conditions may not be appropriate for the long term maintenance of the communities and reproduction of specific tree species. That is, hydrological conditions that promote seed germination are not the same as those conditions for the maintenance of a forest community. A description of how the proposed management of the pool level may affect wetland functioning would be beneficial. Acreage The draft wetland mitigation plan (July 10, 1995) states that 107 acres of jurisdictional wetlands will be created between the 683 and 685 ft MSL elevations. However this plan (March 27, 1996) states that 380 acres of wetlands will be created between the 680 and 682 ft MSL elevations. This discrepancy should be clarified. Please state what the normal pool level will be. Table 2 g. 18) This table presents a list of species recommended for planting. Note that sweetgum (Liquidambar sMdelflua will become established naturally and thus should not be planted. In addition, alder (®jnus serrulata) is a nonleguminous nitrogen fixing species. Since eutrophic conditions are expected to develop within the proposed reservoir, additional nutrient sources may need to be discouraged. We have discussed nitrogen fixation in alder briefly and agree that, under certain conditions, it can be a desirable species to plant. Since nitrogen is unlikely to be a limiting nutrient in this reservoir the use of alder will not be discouraged. Cleared Areas (p. 18) The mitigation plan mentions that there are many undesirable creation sites. These include areas with eroded A-horizons and steep slopes. Although these may be inappropriate sites for wetland creation, these sites probably need stabilization and vegetative cover. Permitting these sites to regenerate naturally may slow the stabilization processes. Clearly, these are areas in need of management. Site Preparation (p. 19) Site preparation activities will include clearing, ripping, fertilization and herbicide application. Many, if not all, of these activities are necessary for successful wetland creation, however they may initially conflict with water quality goals of the reservoir. That is, additional nutrient sources resulting from fertilization could exacerbate primary productivity in the reservoir. In addition, the application of herbicides will have to be timed to prevent entry into surface waters. These precautions are necessary presuming filling of the reservoir may coincide with wetland creation activities. page 4 Wetland Monitoring (n. 271 Two copies of all monitoring reports should be submitted to the NC Division of Environmental Management (DEM). The selection of appropriate reference sites is necessary. Hydrology (p.281 The proposed pool level management plan may provide appropriate wetland hydrology and the monitoring of approximately 20 wells may verify that wetland hydrology has become established. Please support how 20 wells can be used to show that the hydrological succession criterion is present at all (greater than 125) sites. In addition, note that wetland hydrology will become established about the 682 ft. MSL elevation. Therefore, some effort should be directed to monitor areas above the 682 ft MSL level. Soils p. 281 The references you use supporting the use of iron rebar as a measure of anaerobiosis I have seen cited in other studies. I would appreciate receiving copies of those studies. I am more familiar with redox measurements using platinum electrodes and recognize the difficulties and limitations of using these methods. Using iron rebar may help in determining whether the hydrologic criterion is met, particularly when used in conjunction with monitoring wells. Vegetation (2.291 Sampling protocols and success criteria required by the Corps of Engineers will be accepted by the DEM. However, natural recruitment should be considered in determining whether the proper community is becoming established in conjunction with the survival of planted species. Use and long term ownership of mitigation sites. Apparently all sites will be under the ownership of the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority in perpetuity. However, this should be made clear in addition to how the sites may be managed. That is, will a site management plan allow for forest management? Again, thank you for the opportunity to review the plan. I look forward to working with you to ensure the success of these created communities.

As we discussed during the meeting, we would like you to review the meeting summary and concur or comment on the issues described below. If you have any questions or changes to the meeting summary, please contact Wes Newell of ESC at your convenience. In order to document agency coordination performed during this mitigation planning process, we request that you return a signed copy of this letter upon concurrence with the items discussed during the meeting. DWQ Meeting Summary, 14 July 2000 This memo provides a summary of issues discussed with review personnel from the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) concerning wetland mitigation plans for Randleman Reservoir. The meeting was held to update DWQ on the methods being used for wetland restoration and water quality improvement. the meeting attendees included Andrea Spangler (Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority [PTRWA], Pete Colwell (DWQ), Jens Geratz (ESC), and Wes Newell (ESC). TNT.-AvAl nn-canti-d preliniinAn. mitigation de..6an etr.qteciieq for each of the fmir mitigation bites- 1 ? Hickory Creek; 2) Muddy Creek; 3) Reddicks Creek; and 4)" Richland Creek. The strategy is intended to promote wetland establishment within stream valleys extending into the reservoir. The objective of these wetlands is to intercept sediment and process pollutants prior to deposition within the water supply pool. Therefore, the sediment transport capacity of streams flowing into the open water area must be decreased to the extent that the sediment deposition wedge is extended in the up- valley direction. If successful, this wetland restoration areas above the lake pool would support braided stream reaches and in-stream, sediment deposition characteristic of alluvial fans in certain areas. Green tree reservoirs (Reddicks Creek) and in-stream dams (Richland Creek) would be used to dramatically reduce the capacity for streams to transport sediment through the mitigation sites and into the lake pool. Page 1 of 3 Mr. Colwell indicated that the general mitigation strategies described were consistent with understood objectives of wetland mitigation for Randleman Reservoir. Sediment and pollutant J? processing on wetland surfaces may represent a preferred alternative to ensuring sediment transport W? y o 'y l within streams that flow directly into the lake pool. Mr. Colwell indicated concern over loss of ?00 stream function for wetland restoration and sediment processing on sites that are not located a ,?? fn immediately above the lake pool. In addition, Mr. Colwell stated that degraded streams potentially b?k ?W compromised by wetland restoration may be sampled prior to mitigation to defend exchange of Jk streams for wetlands. If existing in-stream aquatic habitat is severely degraded based on biological IV ? x samples, the loss of streams for wetlands may be more acceptable to resource agencies. y 5 ?' v Mr. Colwell indicated that the mitigation plans should provide detailed discussions concerning who will manage the green tree impoundments, funding for management costs, and how the sites will be managed. Spangler indicated that PTRWA would establish mechanisms for management and monitoring of the sites. Newell stated that ESC would include management guidelines in the mitigation plan designed to promote establishment of vegetated wetland surfaces. Newell described methods used to establish wetlands above the lake reservoir. During reference studies on existing lakes, ESC estimated that the lake pool will passively restore wetlands within stream valleys to elevations from 1 foot below to 2 feet above the normal pool. This passive restoration area will be planted with wetland species and coupled with proactive mitigation measures, such as in-stream structures, in the up-valley direction. Mr. Colwell indicated that the issue of wetland restoration along the edge of the lake reservoir has been discussed in the past. Mr. Colwell had no objections to the methods proposed but stated that the mitigation plan should justify that the lake pool elevation is consistent enough to keep these areas as wetlands in perpetuity. Newell indicated that the coupling of passive and active wetland restoration methods will require that the wetland construction be performed concurrently with filling of the reservoir. Mr. Colwell indicated that he suspects that wetland restoration will be required concurrent with wetland impacts, so concurrent lake filling and wetland construction activities may be acceptable. Newell reviewed monitoring programs for the wetland restoration areas that were presented to agencies in the preliminary groundwater models and the conceptual mitigation plan (previous documents developed in 1998/99). Newell indicated that the monitoring plan proposed hydrological success criteria requiring soil saturation for a minimum of 5% of the growing season, which is typical for many Piedmont wetlands. Newell asked for confirmation that a minimum hydrology success criteria encompassing 5% of the growing season is acceptable to DWQ. Mr. Colwell indicated that review/acceptance of the monitoring plan and hydrology success criteria would be determined through further technical review of the detailed mitigation plan. Newell described the acreage of wetland creation / restoration currently projected at the Reddicks Creek and Richland Creek sites. Richland Creek is projected to provide 46 acres and Reddicks Creek is projected to provide 23 acres (69 total acres of wetland creation / restoration). This acreage is 15 acres more than projected during preliminary field reviews in 1998. Mr. Colwell asked where the additional acreage is being generated. Newell stated that the additional acreage appears to be Page 2 of 3 ?• coming from passive restoration resulting from the reference lake pool studies along with wetland establishment expected on alluvial fans established behind green tree impoundments.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAB JUL 1986 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Technical Information Service . ,*- DRAFT Review of the Detailed Wetland Mitigation Plans (Randleman Reservoir Water Supply) for Richland Creek, Reddicks Creek and Hickory Creek Backzround The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority has proposed the construction of a 3000-acre reservoir that will become a primary water supply for the Triad region. The construction of this reservoir will unavoidably impact approximately 121 acres of wetlands. Compensatory wetland mitigation of at least 121 acres is required under North Carolina Law. These plans address how compensatory mitigation will be achieved at these three sites. A total of 10 potential mitigation sites are being considered. It is estimated that these three sites will replace 69 acres (57%) of wetlands lost due to the construction of the reservoir. All three wetland mitigation plans are similar in detail and scope. Two primary methods are proposed for wetland restoration. Instream structures designed to reduce sediment transport capacity are proposed at Richland and Hickory Creeks, and the establishment of a greentree impoundment is proposed for Reddicks Creek. Both methods will trap sediment and may promote the establishment of forested wetlands. Water quality concerns with sediment and nutrients have been addressed in a narrative fashion in these three reports. Instream Structures Instream structures are proposed primarily along dredged or entrenched stream corridors on relatively low-slope valley floors (<0.009 rise/run). Adjacent floodplains have been abandoned by the incised stream and converted to elevated terraces not regularly exposed to overbank flooding or wetland hydrodynamics. Properly designed in-stream structures are expected to reduce the degree of channel incision, reduce the rate of groundwater discharge from the floodplain into the channel, increase overbank flooding, reduce sediment transport capacity and increase sediment deposition within vegetated wetlands. Greentree Impoundments Greentree impoundments are proposed on more steeply sloped floodplains and stream terraces (>0.008 rise/run) or pastured sites where relatively severe stream channel degradation and steepening has occurred. In general, a greentree impoundment comprises a floodplain levee and controllable outlet structure that is modified periodically to promote the development of forested wetlands. The elevation of the outlet is typically raised during the winter months to promote ponding, sediment deposition, and waterfowl habitat. Subsequently the elevation of the outlet is lowered in early spring to allow for the growth of vegetation and seedling 10 1 DRAFT establishment. To provide an optimum environment for the establishment of forested vegetation the water depth during the winter is generally dependent on the height (and species) of planted seedlings. Foresters have studied vegetation and species survival in greentree impoundments so a body of literature is available to guide the managers of the impoundments. Reference Areas The spatial patterns of sediment deposition and vegetation structure and composition was studied at four reference impoundments: 1) Beaver Creek above Lake Jordan (Wake Co.), 2) Little Creek above Lake Jordan (Durham Co.), 3) Rocky Branch above Falls Lake (Wake Co.) and 4) Country Line Creek (Caswell Co.). Details on wetland vegetation that could serve as a reference standard were obtained at two sites along the Rocky River in Cabarrus Co. (Details on the location on these sites is missing). Hydrolozic Modeling Analyses of stream flow and water surface elevations were modeled using the US Army Corps of Engineers HEC-1 and HEC-2 for 1-, 2-, 5-, 10-, and 100-year flood events. Data used as inputs for the models included synthetic storm precipitation data, drainage area, NRCS curve numbers, drainage basin lag time, and channel cross sections that were completed for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood insurance studies. Groundwater modeling was conducted using DRAINMOD. Richland Creek The site contains an approximately 5450-foot reach of Richland Creek, and encompasses about 70 acres - 62 acres of disturbed bottomland hardwood forest and 4.5 acres of pastoral land in a watershed of ca. 14.5 square miles. About 2800 linear feet of the creek was dredged and straightened. Spoil material was added to the natural stream levee, and subsequent channel degradation have lowered the channel bottom up to 12 feet below the top of the constructed levee. The channel is classified as a G5 (sand dominated gully) based on fluvial geomorphic features developed by Rosgen (1996). The creek is classified as WS IV CA. Four fixed in-stream weirs (Fig. 14) will be placed within the dredged channel and designed to avoid having the creek short-circuit the weir. The goal is to encourage sediment deposition behind the weir and encourage the stream to migrate over a restored floodplain (p.31) Hickory Creek This site contains a 3400-foot reach of Hickory Creek and two valley types in a watershed of ca. 8.7 square miles. The lower half of the site consists of a relatively broad (500-900 feet) and abandoned floodplain along a 1400 reach of the creek. In this section the valley slope measures about 0.004 rise/run. The upper reaches of the site the I ,. DRAFT floodplain narrows to widths of less than 200 feet and the slope steepens to an average 0.007 rise/run. The main-stem was dredged and straightened in the last several decades. The channel is classified as a G4 (gravel dominated gully) based on fluvial geomorphic features developed by Rosgen (1996). The creek is classified as WS-IV CA. The restoration plan proposed at this site is stated to consist of in-stream structures (Table 1), and one greentree impoundment structure (p.50 and Figure 16). Four rock check dams will be installed within dredged and straightened stream channels. Reddicks Creek This site contains an approximately 3900-foot reach of Reddicks Creek and lies within a watershed of ca. 9.1 square miles. It flows into Hickory Creek 1.1 miles downstream. The channel is classified as a G4 (gravel dominated gully) based on fluvial geomorphic features developed by Rosgen (1996). The stream is classified as WS-IV CA. The proposed restoration plan includes the construction of four greentree impoundments along Reddicks Creek. Geomorphic Changes and Vegetation Restoration All three plans promote sediment retention upstream of the in-stream structures and greentree impoundments. Although this is admirable goal, it is not clear on how sediment deposition may affect the survival of seedlings of woody plants. Considerable changes in floodplain microtopography can be expected after the in-stream structures and impoundments are constructed. Restoration of Forested Plant Communities All three plans provide details on the proposed plant communities. Species lists include mast-producing species. Overall species selection is very good. However, the proposed Randleman Reservoir has received extensive review by regulatory agencies regarding projected nutrient concentrations. One proposed plant species (Tag Alder, Alnus serrulata) fixes nitrogen and may serve as a source of nitrogen in adjacent waters. The ability of alder to contribute a significant amount of nitrogen to Alaskan lakes is discussed in Wetzel (198_; Limnology). Monitoring Plan Water table elevations and survival of transplanted woody vegetation will be monitored. The water table will be measured in monitoring wells installed in accordance with US Corps of Engineers WRP Technical Note HY-IA-3.1 (Installing Monitoring Wells/Piezometers in Wetlands; August 1993). Automated recording wells are not proposed; thus the frequency of sampling proposed is weekly during spring and early summer and intermittently through the remainder of the growing season. The success criterion is to achieve saturation within one food of the soils surface for 5% of the growing season. The US Army Corps of Engineers uses saturation for 5% of the growing DRAFT season to establish jurisdiction, but generally 12.5% of the growing season is used to establish successful hydrologic restoration. Establishment success of transplanted vegetation will be sampled through randomly placed plots (0.11 acre) representing a 4-5% sample at the study sites. In general, species survival is the primary focus of sampling. However, some consideration is provided for the relative density among species. No one species will be allowed to exceed representing 20% of a goal of 320 stems/acre after three years. The plans state "additional stems of a particular species above the 20% threshold will be discarded from the statistical analysis. " It is not clear on what is meant by this statement. In addition it is not clear on whether vegetation sampling will include seedling established naturally. Herbaceous species will be noted, but no quantitative sampling is proposed for this stratum. Species data should include the wetland indicator status (OBL, FACW, etc.) as part of the data sets and summaries. Submittal of Data The plans propose submittal of data in tabular or electronic (Excel) format. I prefer data submittal in an electronic format. The use oj'MS Excel is acceptable, however spreadsheets must be simple as possible and easily converted to text files so that the data can be read by other statistical software packages. References Larsen et al. (1980), which is cited on the figures for "Reference: Lake Shoreline" is not listed in the "References" section of the reports. ,\ t@0 ST,?T Fs.

Wayne Wright, Chief, Regulatory Division U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Box 1890 Wilmington, North Carolina 28402 -?r ^IJt SUBJ: Final Environmental Impact Statement on Randleman Lake, Guilford and Randolph Counties, North Carolina, December, 2000 Dear Dr. Wright: The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed the referenced document in accordance with the EPA's responsibilities under Section 309 of the Clean Air Act and Section 102 (2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Final Environmental Impact Statement (Final EIS) assesses impacts attendant to constructing a dam and reservoir on the Deep River situated upstream from the town of Randleman in North Carolina. This impoundment is being proposed by the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority (PTRWA) and is to be named Randleman Lake. It will be situated in Guilford and Randolph Counties and is expected to satisfy water demands of the region for the next 50 years. Creating Randleman Lake would flood approximately 3000 acres including 121 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and approximately 28 miles of free-flowing streams. EPA's letter October 6, 1997 to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) raised environmental concerns focusing on several public health issues. Because the proposed lake would be situated downstream of a rapidly urbanizing area, existing and future sources of pollution and nutrients could cause unacceptable levels of eutrophication and threaten the water quality of the lake. Discharges from the City of High Point's Eastside Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) have been and will continue to be a major source of phosphorus and nitrogen. Undesirable algal growth would pose difficulties in meeting the State of North Carolina's chlorophyll a standards of 40 micrograms/L in the upper shallow-bottom reaches of the lake. A second issue stemmed from two contaminated properties being contiguous with the proposed lake property boundary. Both the former Seaboard Chemical Corporation plant property and the City of High Point's landfill sites lie adjacent to the NW arm of the proposed lake, and are sources of contaminated groundwater seeping into the proposed lake. These concerns were shared with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) Division of Water Quality (DWQ), who met with EPA in August, 1999. NCDENR staff members provided strategies to resolve pollutant and nutrient concerns. intemet Address (URL) • http://www.apa.gov Recycled/Recyclable • Printed with Vegetable Oil Based Inks on Recycled Paper (Minimum 30% Postconsumer) Additional technical studies, provided by the PTRWA , offered site remediation options. Following EPA's evaluation of the new material, EPA's October 19, 1999, letter to USACE stated that the proposed strategies seemed reasonable and that the nutrient management rules adopted by the North Carolina's Environmental Management Commission (EMC) should be given the opportunity to demonstrate that the lake will support its designated uses. If implemented, EPA believes the nutrient control strategies will be effective in controlling algal growth and chlorophyll a in the proposed lake. Potential Eutrophocation of Randleman Lake - A principal issue regarding attainment of the 40 micrograms/Liter chlorophyll a standard was point- and non-point source loadings from the Randleman Lake watershed. Point-source modeling studies indicated that moving the City of High Point's Eastside WWTP discharge away from the shallow water to a deeper point near Freeman Mill would result is significantly lower eutrophication in the upper arm of the Deep River. To address non-point source loadings, NCDEM reclassified the proposed Randleman Lake watershed as WS (Water Supply)-IV, Critical Water Supply Watershed. The EMC adopted Nutrient Management Strategy rules and required all local governments to adopt watershed protection ordinances stipulated under the rules, and both Randolph and Gifford Counties have responded by adopting ordinances that establish water critical areas. The efficacy of implementing Nutrient Management Strategy rules, however, need to be demonstrated as protecting the quality of Randleman Lake water from excessive chlorophyll a. While the Certification No. 3221 issued to the PTRWA pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (401 Certification) does identify changes in watershed protection ordinances adopted by the EMC on November 12, 1998, no chlorophyll a monitoring appears in the 401 Certification. EPA believes that demonstrating efficacy of Nutrient Management Strategy rules is essential and requests that USACE stipulate in their Record of Decision that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for chlorophyll a at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA. Contaminated Groundwater - NCDWQ believes that contaminants found in the groundwater that could potentially threaten lake water quality can be confrolled using groundwater diversion, interception, wellpoint pump-and-treat technology, air injection and other means. EPA concurs with NCDWQ's position that it is technically feasible to achieve a drastic reduction in organic chemical pollutants leaving the contaminated sites; however, the key to determining the level of contamination removal is the implementation of a lake water monitoring program. As with the nutrient issues above, the efficacy of the organic chemical control strategies need to be demonstrated as protecting the quality of Randleman Lake water from pollutant levels harmful to public health. No monitoring of organic chemicals appears in the Randleman Lake 401 Certification. EPA requests that USACE stipulate in their Record of Decision that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for organic chemicals at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA. Compensatory Wetland Mitigation - Following our review of the compensatory wetland mitigation proposals in the FEIS, EPA has the following requests/comments. I. EPA requests that the USACE stipulate in their Record of decision that the Cone's Folly site be transferred in fee to an appropriate state or federal agency or land conservancy organization. EPA considers ownership in fee to be a much better protection than the granting of conservation easements alone. 2. EPA is interested in the concept of using in-stream structures to create or restore wetlands in the historical floodplain. We caution the applicant that under no circumstances should the structures be designed to provide treatment of storm water because the Clean Water Act clearly prohibits the use of waters of the U.S. (including wetlands) for treatment of wastewater (including storm water). EPA would prefer more natural stream restoration practices as mitigation, where practicable (restoration of geomorphic dimension, pattern, and profile through use of natural materials and grading practices). Although a simpler and probably cheaper installation, the placement of man-made structures in a stream may not produce the ecological dynamics of natural flow restrictions such as topography, and may not produce a permanent restoration. EPA would appreciate being provided more information on this proposal, and the rationale for the use of the structures rather than employing more natural, geomorphic modification techniques. 3. EPA does not recommend the use of greentree impoundments as mitigation (greentree impoundments are shallow habitats created for waterfowl). In summary, EPA believes that the FEIS generally resolves most of our previous technical and environmental concerns. We request that USAEC include in the Record of Decision the following elements: a) that PTRWA local governments monitor Randleman Lake waters for chlorophyll a and organic pollutants at intervals and locations acceptable to NCDWQ and EPA; b) that the Cone's Folly site be transferred in fee to an appropriate state or federal agency or land conservancy organization. Regarding wetland mitigation, EPA prefers more natural stream restoration practices, where practicable; created wetlands may not provide treatment areas for wastewater and stormwater; and EPA does not recommend the use of greentree impoundments as mitigation. We appreciate the opportunity to review this document.

The required additional information is as follows: Micro-topography Plan It is important to establish micro-topography in wetlands in order to increase diversity. As such, a micro-topography plan should be developed as part of the final grading plan. The plan could include creating as many as five divots, similar to those created by fallen trees, per acre in areas that are to be cleared or graded. Obviously this would not be needed for areas that are not to be cleared or graded. 2. Final Contour Plan Please provide a final contour plan for the Reddicks Creek site and for any other areas that will be graded or scarified. 3. Access Plans Please provide the access routes for heavy equipment at each site. Please indicate that heavy equipment access area will be ripped or otherwise treated to break up potentially compacted soils. 4. Acreage and Community Type Please provide the acreage of each proposed wetland plant community type at each site. 5. Construction Sequence Please provide the construction sequence as it relates to the sediment and erosion control plans. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this project, please contact me at (919) 733-9584.
