1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/PROJECT ABSTRACT
The Goldsboro Housing Authority Mitigation Site (Site) is located in the northeast quadrant of the
intersection of NC -581 and US -13 within the West Haven Apartments complex owned by the Goldsboro
Housing Authority (GHA) in central Wayne County As constructed the Site provides 799 stream
mitigation units The Site is located in United States Geological Survey (USGS) Hydrologic Unit
03020201200020 (North Carolina Division of Water Quality Subbasin 03- 04 -05) of the Neuse River
Basin The Site was identified to assist the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program in meeting
mitigation goals Primary activities at the Site included stream enhancement (levels I and II), creation of
a Best Management Practice (BMP) constructed wetland, and replanting riparian areas with native
vegetation Project restoration efforts provided 799 Stream Mitigation Units and 1 Stormwater Wetland
credit This report (compiled based on EEP's Procedural Guidance and Content Requirements for EEP
Monitoring Reports Version 1 4 dated 11/7/11) summarizes data for year 5 (2013) monitoring
The primary components of the restoration project included the following
1 In keeping with the Neuse River Basinwide Management Plan developed by the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality ( NCDWQ), a mayor goal of the project is to reduce sediment and other
water quality stressors, nitrogen in particular, to the receiving watershed This was achieved via
the following measures
a Restore channel dimension throughout the Site to include bank resloping, benching, and
provision of reference appropriate width -depth ratios to reduce near bank stress and
attendant erosion, and to move bedload towards equilibrium, thereby preventing future
bank instability related to potential bed aggradation and /or degradation
b Replace the existing highly managed grass with an appropriate vegetated buffer
providing root mass that will stabilize project banks, treating both overland and
groundwater inputs
c Install a large stormwater wetland adjacent to Unnamed Tributary to Borden Field Ditch
(UTBFD) designed to receive and provide off -line treatment for a portion of storm flow
that meets or exceeds a 1 -inch storm event, which on average and over the long term is
expected to occur several times per year This will provide a significant sediment and
biogeochemical sink for the inputs from the UTBFD watershed The drainage area of the
UTBFD is approximately 125 acres with approximately 50 acres of impervious surface
The existing Nitrogen load to the UTBFD at the location of the stormwater wetland is
approximately 1229 pounds per year with an estimated potential reduction of 498 pounds
per year as a result of BMP stormwater treatment Calculations were provided in the
design document and site plans permitted by NCDWQ It is anticipated that the
stormwater wetland will receive flow during several storm events each year, as the
typical 1 inch storm event and the one year design storm are expected to overtop the weir
by 1 8 or 2 7 feet, respectively
2 Attenuate storm flows and excess hydrologic energies associated with this highly urban
watershed via 1 a,b,c
3 Enhance the natural aesthetic of the project corridor
4 Increase local awareness of natural resources in an urban setting and the conditions necessary for
their improvement /enhancement
Based on interagency guidelines (USACE 2003), success criteria dictate that survival of woody species
planted at mitigation sites should be at a minimum density of 320 stems per acre at the end of the third
monitoring year Subsequently, 290 stems per acre must be surviving at the end of year 4 and 260 stems
Goldsboro Housing Authority (final) Axiom Environmental, Inc Monitoring Year 5 of 5 (2013)
EEP Project Number 145 December 2013
Wayne County, North Carolina page 1
per acre at the end of year 5 Based on the number of stems counted, average densities were measured at
648 planted stems per acre (excluding livestakes) surviving in year 5 (2013) All three vegetation plots
met success criteria based on planted stems, ranging from 404 to 1052 planted stems per acres, with 3 to 7
planted species noted per plot When considering all stems including natural recruits, stem densities
ranged from 1255 to 2185 native woody stems per acre with 8 to 10 species noted per plot (13 species
Site wide) Supplemental planting of the Site occurred on February 3, 2012 with 460 containerized trees
as follows These trees appear to be vigorous with a high survival rate Areas planted are depicted on
mapping in Appendix G

One dense Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicei a japonica)
population was identified on the outer rim of the stormwater
BMP This area is identified on Figure 2 (Appendix B)
Invasive species controls, consisting of two herbicide
treatments, occurred during the summer of 2013
Treatments targeted Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense),
callery pear (Pyrus calleryana), and tree of heaven
(Ailanthus altissima) throughout the area between Oak
Street and Aster Court (see photo to right) Treatments
included cutting and applying herbicide to stumps of larger
woody stems, and foliar application of herbicide to smaller
material
Success criteria for Site streams, to assure that project goals
are being achieved, will primarily be based on indicators
and trends describing the stability of the channel and success of the riparian buffer In addition, a
minimum of two bankfull events must be documented within the standard 5 year monitoring period In
order for the monitoring to be considered complete, the bankfull events must occur in separate monitoring
years Overall the reach has conserved the riffle cross - sectional area in the last few monitoring years and
bank erosion is minimal to non - existent across the Site However, there are a few depositional areas,
which seem to be the result of trash and debris deposited in the channel or washed in during storm events
This was most notable in Cross - section 2 for Year 4 (2012) and Year 5 (2013), while Cross - section 3
indicated prior sediment deposition was mobilized in Year 5 (2013), these depositional areas were not
accompanied by channel widening Cross - section 4 had to be reset in Year 4 (2012) and exhibits a later
shift as a result, however, the cross - sectional area was conserved In addition, two bankfull events were
documented to occur in Year 5 (2013) to date for a total of ten bankfull events during the monitoring
period
Two stream areas of concern were noted within the Site as outlined in the following table (Figure 2,

2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Vegetation Assessment
Following Site construction, three plots (20- meters by 5- meters) were established and monumented with
metal rebar at all plot corners Plots were surveyed on September 17, 2013 for the year 5 (2013)
monitoring season Sampling was conducted as outlined in the CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording
Vegetation, Version 4 2 (Lee et al 2008) (http / /cvs bio unc edu /methods htm), results are included in
Appendix C The taxonomic standard for vegetation used for this document was Flora of the Carolinas,
Virginia, Georgia, and Surrounding Areas (Weakley 2007) The locations of vegetation monitoring plots
are depicted on Figure 2 in Appendix B
2.2 Stream Assessment
Four permanent cross - sections were established after construction was completed Measurements of each
cross - section include points at all breaks in slope including top of bank, bankfull, and thalweg Riffle
cross - sections are classified using the Applied Fluvial Morphology (Rosgen 1996) stream classification
system Cross - section plots and data are included in Appendix D, the locations of cross - sections are
depicted on Figure 2 in Appendix B
