Appendix A contains the As-Built Survey. Monitoring of this restoration project is to take place during the five growing seasons subsequent to construction completion. This annual report summarizes the vegetative and stream monitoring activities performed on the South Fork Mitigation Site during 2008, the fourth year after construction completion. This Annual Report presents stream flow data from two crest gauges, stream geometry data from 25 cross sections, and 4,600 linear feet of profile survey. In addition, photographs are presented that document the conditions of the restored and enhanced stream reaches. Additional collected data includes benthic macroin vertebrate survey, on-site rain gauge readings, and observations of potential problems with stream stability. This information is used to determine the overall condition of the reconstructed stream during 2008 monitoring. • Stream monitoring data in Years 1 through 4 documented multiple bankfull events and little • change in channel dimension and profile. Minor adjustments in channel dimension have occurred at several cross section locations, mostly due to slight aggradation in pools as a result of vegetation in the channel. Most in-stream structures continue to function as designed. Several • structures on the downstream end of Reach M2 were repaired in 2008 as specified in the South Fork Adaptive Management Report. The South Fork Mitigation Site is on track to meet the stream success criteria specified in the Restoration Plan. This Annual Report documents vegetation survival based on seven 1/10`h acre vegetation monitoring plots, as specified in the Restoration Plan. Vegetation monitoring documented a range of vegetation density between 470 and 650 trees per acre. The site is on track to achieve the final vegetation success criteria of 260 stems per acre surviving at the end of the fifth growing season. 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The South Fork Mitigation Site is located in Catawba County, North Carolina approximately five miles southwest of Newton (Figure 1 & Figure 2). The site has a history of pasture and general agricultural usage. The streams on the project were channelized and riparian vegetation was cleared in most locations. Cattle were allowed to graze on the banks and access the channels causing significant erosion of the banks. Stream and riparian functions on the site were severely impacted as a result of agricultural conversion. The project restored or enhanced 14,294 linear feet of channelized stream on several unnamed tributaries to the South Fork of the Catawba River. The project restored 9,590 linear feet of channel dimension, pattern, and profile and enhanced 4,704 linear feet of channel dimension and/or profile. Table 1 shows the as-built lengths and restoration type per reach. 2008 monitoring represents the fourth year of monitoring for this site. 0 0 ❑1 E l VONSH�r; RpCK`(F BRUSHWO D 0 ,m- South Fork North Project Site - r' B r 3.33 GS GRANT i )9 ITE South Fork South Project Site r Its % �- ' - .� ` � / •,� �, floc EVERLY 1 IO ELBOW O 21 EBXFigure 2.South Fork Stream Mitigation Site USGS Topographic Map Catawba County, t 1 inch equals 2,000 feet South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) 2.2 PROJECT PURPOSE Monitoring of the South Fork Site is required to demonstrate successful mitigation based on the criteria described in the South Fork Restoration Plan.

South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) 3.0 VEGETATION MONITORING 3.1 VEGETATION SUCCESS CRITERIA The interim measure of vegetative success for the South Fork Catawba Mitigation Plan is the survival of at least 320 3 year-old planted trees per acre at the end of Year 3 of the monitoring period. The final vegetative success criteria is the survival of 260 5 year-old planted trees per acre at the end of year five of the monitoring period. Up to 20 percent of the site species composition may be comprised of invaders. Remedial action may be required should these (i.e. loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), red maple (Acer rubrum), sweet gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), etc.) present a problem and exceed 20 percent composition. 3.2 DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES AND VEGETATION MONITORING The vegetation monitoring protocol was designed to determine planted tree density and vegetation trends across the restoration area. Seven plots were established on the South Fork Catawba Mitigation Site to monitor approximately 2 percent of the site. The vegetation monitoring plots are 1'/1 0th of an acre (50 feet x 87 feet dimensionally). The plots are randomly located and randomly oriented within the restoration area. Plot construction includes metal fence posts at each of the four corners to clearly and permanently establish the area to be sampled. Ropes are hung connecting all four corners to help in determining if trees close to the plot boundary are inside or outside of the plot. Trees right on and just outside of the boundary that appear to have greater than 50 percent of their canopy inside the plot are included in the stem counts. A piece of white PVC pipe ten feet tall is placed over the metal post on one corner to facilitate visual location of each plot throughout the five-year monitoring period. All of the planted stems inside the plot are flagged with orange flagging. A 3 foot-tall piece of half inch PVC is placed in the ground beside each stem to mark them as the planted stems (vs. colonizers) and to help in locating them in the future. Each stem is then tagged with a permanent numbered aluminum tag. The following tree species were planted in the Wetland Restoration Area: Table 4.

If these trees persist into next growing season and exceed 12 inches tall, they will be flagged and added to the overall stems per acre assessment of the site. Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua) is the most common volunteer observed. 3.4 GENERAL VEGETATION OBSERVATIONS After construction of the mitigation site, a permanent ground cover seed mixture of switch grass (Panicum virgatum), big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii), ironweed (Vernonia noveboracensis), joe pye weed (Eupatorium fistulosum), and deertongue (Panicum clandestinum) was broadcast on the site. These species are dominant on the site, though they pose no threat to the survival or health of the planted or naturally occurring hydrophytic vegetation. Volunteer hydrophytic herbaceous vegetation is also occurring on site. Rush (Juncus effusus), bulrush (Scirpus sp.), knotweed (Polygonum persicaria), jewelweed (Impatiens capensis) and sedge (Carex sp.), all 8 South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) hydrophytic herbaceous plants, are frequently observed across the site particularly in areas of inundation. Arrow-head (Sagitarria spp.), another wetland species, is found in some of the wetter areas of the site. • There are zones of less desirable weedy species occurring on the site, though none seem to be • posing any problems for the woody or herbaceous hydrophytic vegetation. The majority of the weedy species are annuals and pose little threat to planted tree survival. Commonly seen weedy vegetation includes hay, dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum), dogfennel (Eupatorium capillifolium) and buttercup (Ranunculus sp.). Any threatening weedy vegetation found in the future will be documented and discussed. • 3.5 VEGETATION CONCLUSIONS • This site was planted in bottomland hardwood forest species in March 2005. There were seven l /loth acre vegetation monitoring plots established throughout the planting areas. The 2008 vegetation monitoring revealed an average tree density of 540 stems per acre. The site met the • minimum interim success interim criteria of 320 trees per acre by the end of year three and is on track to achieve the final success criteria of 260 trees per acre at the end of year five. 4.0 STREAM MONITORING 3.1 STREAM SUCCESS CRITERIA As stated in the approved Restoration Plan, the stream restoration success criteria for the site includes the following: • Bankfull Events: Two bankfull flow events must be documented within the five-year monitoring period. a Cross sections: There should be little change in as-built cross sections. Cross sections shall be classified using the Rosgen stream classification method and all monitored cross " " " " sections should fall within the quantitative parameters defined for B or C type channels. Cross-section data will be collected annually. • Longitudinal Profile: The longitudinal profiles should show that the bedform features are remaining stable, i.e. they are not aggrading or degrading. Bedforms observed should be consistent with those observed in "E" or "C" type channels. Profile data will be collected • in monitoring Years 1, 3, and 5. • Photo Reference Stations: Photographs will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradation or degradation, bank erosion, success of riparian vegetation and effectiveness of erosion control measures. Photos will be taken annually at permanent cross-sections and grade control structures. • Benthic Macroinvertebrate Sampling: Benthic macroinvertebrates will be sampled annually in monitoring years 1, 2, and 3. Benthic macroinvertebrates will be identified and a tolerance value will be calculated. 3.2 STREAM MONITORING PLAN Along UT1B, UT2A, UT213, UT3, UT4, UT5, M1 and M2 a natural channel design approach was applied to develop stable hydraulic geometry parameters. Construction began in January 2005 and was completed in May 2005. The rebuilding of the channel established stable cross-sectional geometry, increased plan form sinuosity, and restored riffle-pool sequences and other streambed diversity to improve benthic habitat. Approximately 9,590 linear feet of stream restoration has • been constructed. 9 South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) • 3.2.1 Cross Sections According to the as-built document written in July 2005, twenty-five cross sections are to be monitored along the restored tributaries UTIB, UT2A, UT2B, UT3, UT4, UT5, M1 and M2. The cross sections were established during monitoring set-up in evenly distributed pairs of one riffle • and one pool cross section per 1,000 linear feet of restored stream. Each cross section was marked • on both banks with permanent pins to establish the exact transect used. Permanent cross-section pins were surveyed and located relative to a common benchmark to facilitate easy comparison of year-to-year data. The annual cross-section surveys include points measured at all breaks in slope, • including floodplain, top of bank, bankfull, inner berm, edge of water, and thalweg. In addition, any fluvial features present will be documented. Permanent cross sections for 2008 (Year 4) were surveyed in July 2008 and are shown in Figure 4. 3.2.2 Longitudinal Profile Longitudinal profiles will be surveyed annually during the five-year monitoring period. The profile will be conducted for a length of restored channel at least 3,000 feet in length. Features measured will include thalweg, inverts of stream structures, water surface, bankfull, and top of low bank. Approximately 4,600 linear feet of longitudinal profile was surveyed for Year 4 in July 2008. 3.2.3 Hydrology Two crest gauges were installed on the site to document bankfull events. The gauges record the highest out-of-bank flow events that occurred and are checked monthly through the year. The gauges are located on reaches M1 and M2 (See Figures 3A and 3B). The gauge on reach M1 is located near stream station 61+25 (cross section 11). The gauge on reach M2 is located near stream station 28+50 (between cross section 4 and cross section 5). 3.2.4 Benthic Macroinvertebrates Benthic macroinvertebrate sampling data will be collected from two locations within the project limits. Pre-restoration data were collected on November 1, 2004, prior to initiation of stream restoration. Post-restoration sampling began in November 2005 and annually thereafter for a total of three years. Year 3 data will appear in this report. Sampling will be conducted each year between September and November to be consistent with pre-restoration samples. Sample collection will follow protocols described in the standard operating procedures of the Biological Assessment Unit of the NCDWQ. The Qual-4 collection method will be used for the collection of macroinvertebrate samples. The metrics to be calculated will include total and ephemeroptera, plecoptera, and trichoptera (EPT) taxa richness, EPT abundance, and biotic index values. 3.3 STREAM MORPHOLOGY MONITORING RESULTS In-stream structures installed within the channel included constructed riffles, cross vanes, log vanes, log weirs, root wads, and step-pool structures. Visual observations of structures throughout the past growing season indicated that nearly all structures are functioning as designed.

The cross sections were surveyed during the monitoring set-up and annually in the late growing season. Year 4 cross sections were surveyed in July 2008. The baseline data have been compared with the Year 1, 2, 3, and 4 data in Appendix B. The Year 4 channel cross sections showed that overall stream dimension remained stable during the fourth growing season. Some localized areas of bed scour and/or aggradation were noted; however, these adjustments are common and indicate a movement toward greater stability. There is very little difference between the baseline cross sections, and Years 1, 2, 3, and 4 cross sections. Changes in cross section measurements such as Bankfull Area and width/Depth ratio are primarily due to minor deviations in the assumed bankfull elevation. 3.3.2 Longitudinal Profile The longitudinal profile was surveyed for Year 4 in July 2008. A longitudinal profile was surveyed at six representative reaches during July 2008. Profile lengths were as follows: 1,000 feet in Reach UT2A, 1,825 combined feet of Reaches UT1B and M1, 660 feet of Reach UT5, 525 feet of Reach UT4, and 600 feet of Reach M2 for a total of 4,610 linear feet. These profiles were compared to as-built profiles conducted in October 2005. Based on comparisons, there has been very little adjustment to the stream profile or dimension since construction. Minor aggradation has occurred in the pools as the channel has adjusted to an equilibrium condition. The riffles have remained stable. As-built and 2008 profiles can be viewed in Appendix B. 5.3.3 Hydrology The crest gauges were read and reset on monthly sites visits from March through November 2008. Data collected from the gauge in March is a composite sample for December 2007 through March 2008. Three bankfull events occurred during the March to November time period on Reach UT2B in South Fork North. Three bankfull events were observed at the crest gauge on Reach M2 in South Fork South. The crest gauge data is included in Table 8. Documented bankfull events and observed stream flows were compared with monthly rainfall totals to assess stream response to precipitation events. Daily precipitation data were collected from the Conover Oxford Shoals weather station in Conover, NC. An on-site rain gauge was also monitored throughout 2008. The precipitation data are summarized in Table 9. Table S.

The North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) Qual-4 collection method was utilized. In addition to benthic sampling, NCDWQ habitat assessment forms were completed at each monitoring site. Benthos samples were preserved in alcohol and later identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level by an aquatic ecologist. Table 10 and Table 11 list the taxa encountered, relative abundance, and tolerance values. The NCDWQ Standard Operating Procedures for Benthic Macroinvertebrates (2006) assigns tolerance values for common macro invertebrates in North Carolina. Tolerance values range from 0 to 10 with low scores indicating species that are intolerant to pollution, excess sediment, or other disturbances. Overall, taxa collected at both sites were moderately to very tolerant species. The northern reach (M 1) received a habitat score of 75 out of 100 possible points. Eight EPT species were collected and 25 total taxa were collected. Taxa collected were moderately tolerant. 18 South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) Table 10.

Based on cross-sectional survey, longitudinal profile survey, and streamwalk observations, it was concluded that the site continues to be on track to achieve stream success criteria specified in the Restoration Plan. Throughout the project localized areas of siltation are present and vegetation is beginning to grow in the channel. There was some slight erosion around some of the root wads and in-stream structures. The step-pool at the downstream end of Reach M2 was repaired in 2008 and is stable and functioning as designed. A persistent problem has been cattle in the easement. Recent landowner coordination and fence repairs appear to have corrected this problem. Table 12 outlines areas requiring further observation with station and description of each area. Photos of potential areas of instability are included in Appendix C. 20 South Fork Mitigation Site Annual Monitoring Report for 2008 (Year 4) Table 12.

Invasive and volunteer species do not pose significant risks to vegetation success. The site is on track to achieve the final vegetation success criteria of 260 stems per acre surviving at the end of the fifth growing season. • Data collected during monitoring Year 4 and observations of conditions at the site indicate that the stream restoration project continues to be successful and is on track to achieve the stream success criteria as specified in the Restoration Plan. The stream morphology is stable. Repairs to structures specified in the South Fork Adaptive Management Report successfully corrected the only major problem areas. Several in- stream structures have some scour, but are functioning correctly. Very little fluvial erosion was observed overall, though there are areas of concern that will continue to be observed. Some slight siltation in pools is occurring, resulting in vegetation growth in the channel. Several aquatic organisms and fish were observed along the reaches. Habitat has been improved significantly throughout the project site. • Monitoring of vegetation and stream stability will continue through the 2009 growing season. 21 APPENDIX A As-Built Survey i L - ?
