Watershed Planning Summar
The Herman Dairy Farm stream and wetland restoration project is located in within HUC 03050101120030, the Lower Little
River, including Muddy Fork watershed, which is listed as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW) in the 2009 Upper Catawba
River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP) plan. Currently, this is the only DMS project in this TLW.
Following the publication of the 2009 RBRP, Muddy Fork was identified on the 2010 NC Division of Water Resources
(NCDWR) 303d Impaired Waters list as exceeding criteria for benthic bioclassification scores. Muddy Fork drains to the
Lower Little River less than one mile downstream of the project. This portion of the Lower Little River has been listed an
NC 303(d) impaired water since 2004, due to declines in fish and benthic bioclassification scores.
The 2009 RBRP indicates that major aquatic stressors to the Lower Little River may be attributed to degraded or nonexistent
buffers and sediment inputs from unstable streambanks, in -stream sediment mining ("sand dipping") and agricultural
practices. It notes that the Lower Little River, including Muddy Fork watershed contains 41 percent agricultural land cover,
and includes 50 permitted animal operations (the most of any TLW in the upper Catawba). Thirty percent of its riparian
buffers are non -forested and the built-up areas around the town of Taylorsville contribute to an overall watershed
imperviousness of 2.4 percent. Goals established in the 2009 RBRP for the Upper Catawba include: (1) restoration of
nutrient- and sediment -impaired waters (including tributary streams such as the Lower Little River) of the water supply
reservoirs along the Catawba River; (2) protection of riparian buffers and aquatic habitat within headwater reaches; and (3)
implementation of agricultural BMPs within heavily agricultural sub -watersheds of TLWs.
The goals of the Herman Dairy Farm project are consistent with DMS watershed planning goals. The project removes
nonpoint sources of pollution associated with agricultural production through agricultural BMPs which include changes to
fertilizer application practices and the establishment of riparian buffers along Muddy Fork and several headwater tributaries.
It also reduces sediment loads to onsite receiving waters by stabilizing stream banks, and reduces sediment loads to
downstream receiving waters by increasing onsite sediment and floodwater storage through re-establishment of proper
channel planform geometry and adjacent riparian wetlands.
Proiect Settiniz and Background Summary
Restoration Systems, LLC has established the Herman Dairy Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site (Site) located
approximately 1.5 miles northwest of Taylorsville, in central Alexander County within 14-digit Cataloging Unit andTargeted
Local Watershed 03050101120030 of the Catawba River Basin. The Site encompasses 31.12 acres of land previously used
for agricultural row crop production and the spray application of sludge from a lagoon associated with a dairy cattle operation.
The Site was identified to assist the Department of Mitigation Services (DMS) in meeting its stream and wetland
restoration goals.
The Site is located on tributaries to Muddy Fork, which has been assigned Stream Index Number 11-69-4, a Best Usage
Classification of C, and is Fully Supporting its intended uses (NCDWQ 2010b). Site streams are listed on the NCDWQ final
2010 Section 303(d) list of impaired streams in the state due to declines in the ecological and biological integrity of benthic
communities and aquatic life (NCDWQ 2010a).
This project is located within a Targeted Local Watershed that has been identified for of stream and buffer restoration
opportunities (NCEEP 2009). Existing Site streams are impaired as indicated by declines in fish and benthic bioclassification
scores resulting from degraded or nonexistent buffers and sediment inputs from unstable streambanks, in -stream sediment
mining, and agricultural practices (NCEEP 2009, NCDWQ 2010a).
Construction and planting of the site were completed in March of 2012, with the first year monitoring data collected seven
months later during October of that year. There were changes in asset credits from the Mitigation Plan to the As -built Report.
This was due to the ecologically driven decision during construction of using an existing valley on UT 2 to support a braided
channel and not building a designed channel and excavated valley in an inappropriate location. Also the non -riparian wetland
credit was increased by .05 credits due to a slightly larger area meeting success criteria. The replanting was tied to this fact as
well, with several areas becoming unsuitable for the originally planted species due to the levels of soil moisture, and thus needed
to be replaced with better suited species.
Overall the stream and wetlands are functioning as designed, and no areas of concern have been observed and reported.
Throughout the monitoring period, UT 1 has received a significant about of fine sediment deposition as the result of upstream
land uses, which include livestock pastures, dairy operations, and cleared riparian bffers. Several beaver dams wer observed
along UT 1 throughout the monitoring period causing this fine sediment to deposit in the stream bed and banks. This aggradation
is noticable in most of the cross sestions on UT (cross sections 1-10), and the dominant streambed substrate in UT now
appears to be sand. Though some banks have built up slightly and the stream bed shows some aggradation, mainly in pools, the
stream is stable, and less beaver activity has been observed in the past year.
Also, all permit conditions have been satisfied and fulfilled as laid out in the attached permits included at the end of
this report.
Goals and Objectives:
The primary goals and objectives of this stream and wetland restoration project focused on improving water
quality, enhancing flood attenuation, and restoring wildlife habitat and will be accomplished by the following.
Removing nonpoint sources of pollution associated with agricultural production including a)
cessation of broadcasting sludge, fertilizer, pesticides, and other agricultural materials into and
adjacent to Site streams/wetlands and b) restoration of a forested riparian buffer adjacent to streams
and wetlands to treat surface runoff.
2. Reducing sedimentation within onsite and downstream receiving waters through a) reduction of
bank erosion, vegetation maintenance, and plowing to Site streams and wetlands and b) restoration
of a forested riparian buffer adjacent to Site streams and wetlands.
3. Reestablishing stream stability and the capacity to transport watershed flows and sediment loads by
restoring stable dimension, pattern, and profile supported by natural in -stream habitat and
grade/bank stabilization structures.
4. Promoting floodwater attenuation by a) reconnecting bankfull stream flows to the abandoned
floodplain, b) restoring secondary, entrenched tributaries thereby reducing floodwater velocities
within smaller catchment basins, c) restoring depressional floodplain wetlands to increase the
floodwater storage capacity within the Site, and d) revegetating Site floodplains to increase frictional
resistance on floodwaters crossing Site floodplains.
S. Improving aquatic habitat by enhancing stream bed variability and the use of in -stream structures.
6. Providing a terrestrial wildlife corridor and refuge in an area extensively developed for agricultural
production.
7. Restoring and reestablishing natural community structure, habitat diversity, and functional
continuity.
8. Enhancing and protecting the Site's full potential of stream and wetland functions and values in perpetuity.

Stream Morphology Data: Cross sections, Longitudinal Profiles, and Morphology
Note: As per NCDMS guidance, bankfull cross sectional area is calculated using a fixed elevation. Therefore, bankfull maximum depth and low bank
height are measured from the fixed elevation to the bottom of the thalweg. Given the fixed nature of bankfull, both values of bankfull maximum depth
and low bank height fluctuate at the same amount, resulting in a bank height ratio that does not change dramatically from year to year.

DMS Recommendation and Conclusion
Restoration System has meet and exceeded vegetation and hydrology criteria for the past five years throughout the
easement. Encroachment issues with tenants of the bordering agricultural fields have been addressed and no evidence of
encroachment has occurred since areas were more distinctly marked and replanted. Because these issues have been
resolved we believe the project site should be closed -out with the 4780 SMU, 8.0 Riparian WMU and the 1.25 Non -
riparian WMU assets outlined in the above table approved.
