Monitoring Plan View Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project ii Monitoring Year 3 of 5 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/PROJECT ABSTRACT On behalf of the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP), Mid- _ Atlantic Mitigation, LLC (MAM) with technical assistance from Environmental Services, Inc (ESI) restored 4 2 acres of riverme wetlands, enhanced 2 2 acres, an additional 8 26 acres of enhancement and preservation areas not included in the WMU calculation are present on site Grading of the Reeds Creek Site was completed December 2006 Planting and seeding of the site were completed in January 2007 Overall, the project will restore, enhance, and/or preserve approximately 14 66 acres of forested and emergent wetlands and upland buffer, of which 5 3 will be provided as riverine wetland mitigation units (WMUs) to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) The goals and objectives of the Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project (Reeds Project) are to restore the hydrologic functions, the native vegetation of the degraded and drained wetlands, flood retention and water quality functions within the Reeds Creek watershed of the Catawba River Basin (HUC 03050101) Existing berms and spoil piles adjacent to Reeds Creek were graded down to a more natural elevation and the other existing fill areas were removed Native woody vegetation has been established in this area Jurisdictional wetlands were preserved in the semi - permanently impounded area associated with Lake Norman Jurisdictional wetlands were enhanced and/or restored in the area south of Reeds Creek 2.0 PROJECT BACKGROUND 2.1 LOCATION AND SETTING The Reeds Project is a 14 66 -acre tract located southwest of Mooresville, Iredell County, North Carolina off of U S Highway 21, approximately 13 miles northeast of the U S Highway 21 and Interstate 77 intersection (see Figure 1) The project site is located in the Catawba River Watershed (USGS 8 -digit Hydrologic Unit 03050101, and NCDWQ River Basin 03- 08 -32) NCDWQ has assigned Reeds Creek within the project site the Stream Index Number (SIN) of 11- 104(2) The site is immediately adjacent to Lake Norman and is characterized by a variable floodplain associated with Reeds Creek The site is currently owned by Mid - Atlantic Mitigation, LLC with the Conservation Easement being held by the State of North Carolina 2.2 STRUCTURE AND OBJECTIVES The goals and objectives of the Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project are to restore the hydrologic functions, the native vegetation of the degraded and drained wetlands, flood retention and water quality functions within the Reeds Creek watershed of the Catawba River Basin (HUC 03050101) A Project Location Map is provided in Figure 1 Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 1 Monitoring Year 3 of 5 Existing berms and spoil piles adjacent to Reeds Creek were graded down to a more natural elevation and the other existing fill areas were removed The material was graded to the surrounding landscape to provide microtopographic complexity and woody planting zones These areas where the topography was enhanced will create diverse habitats instead of the monotypical, flat lake fringe area that previously existed Surface hydrology will be reintroduced to the restoration areas via more frequent overbank flooding from Reeds Creek Native woody vegetation has been established in this area Jurisdictional wetlands were preserved in the semi - permanently impounded area associated with Lake Norman Jurisdictional wetlands were enhanced and /or restored in the area south of Reeds Creek Minor grading, adjacent to the wettest areas, was done to f expand the wetland hydrology and create microtopography within the contiguous floodplam and wetland area The riparian wetland and buffer vegetation community will transition as the system seeks its hydrologic and vegetative equilibrium Sediments on site were initially unconsolidated and mucky with saturation due to Lake Norman water level fluctuations While water level fluctuations are still anticipated, the areas and duration of inundation can only be determined through post - construction observation and monitoring It was anticipated that settling and subsidence would occur throughout the initial growing season, first through evaporation and then through transpiration as the herbaceous cover (seeded and natural propagation) established Areas that were not saturated/ponded (i.e fringe areas and/or microtopographic mounds) were planted with bare root seedlings to establish a bottomland hardwood riparian wetland community In order to stabilize the newly constructed wetlands and flood plain areas, both temporary and permanent grass seed were applied to all restored areas. The types of seeds used were Leersza oryzoides (Rice Cut grass), Panzcum clandestinum (Deertongue grass), Panicum virgatum (Switchgrass), Trisacum dactyloides (Gama grass), Juncus effusus (soft rush) and Secale cereale (Annual rye) Three hardwood planting zones were established as follows Zone 1 -Swamp Forest Zone (the lowest elevations on site), Zone 2- Bottomland Forest Zone (transitional elevations), and Zone 3 -Levee Forest Zone (areas associated with the tops of the microtopographic planting mounds) A density of over 750 stems per acre was planted throughout the project Livestakes were installed in some of the wetter areas but further livestakmg along Reeds Creek may be necessary as the new streambank/floodplam area stabilizes with its associated wetlands Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 2 Monitoring Year 3 of 5 Table 1.

These numbers seem to indicate a black willow monoculture could be forming However, the �- composition of the on -site preservation areas indicate that while black willow may be the dominate species it does not out compete or prevent other species from thriving as well The black willows in the enhancement area will be thinned between Year 3 and 4, but no aggressive strategies, such as herbicide treatments of willows are proposed at this time 3.1.3 Stem Counts The prevalent vegetation should consist of macrophytes that typically are adapted for life in saturated soil conditions These species should have the ability to grow, compete, reproduce, and persist in anaerobic soil conditions A maximum of 15% nuisance vegetation in wetland areas with planted and volunteer vegetation will successfully indicate establishment of native wetland vegetation Study plots show that the composition and density of vegetation in the restoration areas compares closely to the reference areas Stem counts of over 320 trees per acre after 3 years, and 260 trees per acre after 5 years will be considered successful Photos taken at established photo points should indicate maturation of the riparian vegetation community Photographs will help to illustrate the health of the planted vegetation and the seventy of the invasive or exotic species that are found within the site Permanent vegetation sampling plots have been established at 2 random locations and sample each planting zone Plot A is located in the restoration area, and Plot B is located in the enhancement area The success of vegetative plantings will be measured through stems counts These plots will be used to sample both the riparian buffer and restored wetlands Each plot will cover 100 square meters for tree counts. During the counts, the health of the vegetation will be noted In addition to stem counts, the samples will inventory species diversity to allow for comparison between the reference and restoration wetlands and track the percent cover of nuisance species The vegetation survey will occur during the growing season. Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 5 Monitoring Year 3 of 5 On July 23rd, 2008, the third year - vegetative monitoring was performed on the established vegetation sampling plots.

The site as a whole shows an average of 1000 planted stems per acre and demonstrates 65 percent survival of planted species The community is diverse and rich with healthy volunteers Large numbers of buttonbush and black willow volunteers are present on site and in plots. Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 6 Monrtormg Year 3 of 5 The herbaceous cover plant community was monitored in a 1 in by 1 in square at one corner of each plot Each herbaceous quadrant is at or close to 100% cover with no invasive species noted Additional data from the vegetation sampling plots is located in Appendix A 3.2 WETLAND ASSESSMENT 3.2.1 Wetland Criteria Attainment There are three water level monitoring gages located on the Reeds Creek Project Gages 1 and 2 are located in the restoration area and Gage 3 is located in the enhancement area in the same location as the pre - construction gage. There are both mature forested and emergent areas of preservation which were not included in the WMU calculations adjacent to the small unnamed tributary entering the site from the southeast corner and flowing into the cove for the Huntington neighborhood. There is a 4t' gage located in the preservation/fringe area of the site to be used as an on site reference The data will be downloaded once a month throughout the monitoring period A USGS rain gage located on Lake Norman (Gage #35301408052495 CRN -42 Norman Shores) will be used to monitor the amount of rainfall This will be correlated with the ground water data 4 Lake Norman lake levels will also be monitored if the site becomes inundated from high lake levels As stated in the Mitigation Plan, jurisdictional hydrology for the site will be defined as saturation within the upper 12 inches of the surface of the soils for a period of approximately 24 consecutive days during the growing season (239 days between March and October) or approximately 10% of the growing season Inundation periods of between 5 and 10% of the growing season may be acceptable in a year that is on record for moderate to severe drought. The NC Cooperative Extension Service actually lists the average growing season for Iredell County as 179 days. Therefore, in a year of average precipitation hydrological success for the Reeds Creek site will be a minimum of 18 days Gages 1 through 3 entered the onset of the growing season at jurisdictional levels and maintained them throughout the spring season The Reference gage (4) has been ' dryer than the site gages, but achieved jurisdictional hydrology in the spring as well. The reference area is thickly vegetated, including a large stand of mature Black Willows near the gage and is far removed from the inundation effect of Lake Norman Both of these factors could affect the hydrology of this gage Graphs showing water levels and corresponding rainfall data are located in Appendix B. Based on the gage data for 2009, the site has achieved jurisdictional hydrology for the third consecutive monitoring year Lake Norman Lake levels were higher in Year 3 than any previous years The area of inundation located in the center of the site closest to the leading edge of the lake is a mapped NWI wetlands and is considered on site preservation and not included in the credit calculations for the site This area has remained inundated for the better part of this year (2009) to date A table showing the 2008 — 2009 13 month lake level history is provided in Appendix B Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 7 Monrtormg Year 3 of 5 Exhibit Table VII: Success Criteria Attainment Exhibit Table VIII: Wetland Criteria Attainment Well ID Well Gage 2 R] Well Hydrology Threshold Met?

The planted trees and shrubs have done very well and are supplemented by a robust existing buffer community which provides seed source for volunteers well suited to the current site conditions Ground water gages demonstrate favorable trends and junsdictional wetland hydrology throughout the entire site. Additionally, a local chapter of the North Carolina Wildlife Federation, the Lake Norman Wildlife Conservationists has taken a special interest in the Reeds Creek project The group has worked with Boy Scouts and other local volunteers to build and install wood duck, barred owl, blue bird, and warbler nesting boxes on the site in 2008 Two Bat Boxes and constructed basking logs for the turtle population were installed in 2009 The group regularly visits the site to pick up litter and monitor for trespassing and vandalism The group and the site have continued to receive lots of positive press this year. No more -_ habitat structures are planned for the site, but the group continues to frequent the site to look for problems and pick up litter Reeds Creek Wetland Restoration Project 9 Monitoring Year 3 of 5 APPENDIX A.
