Enclosed you will find one (1) hard copy; a digital copy has been sent to you via e-mail in .pdf format on November 18, 2014. Vegetation sampling across the Parcel was above the required average density with 663 planted tree stems per acre (excluding livestakes) surviving in year 2 (2014). In addition, all individual plots exceeded success criteria with the exception of Plots 8 and 9, which were each two stems shy of success. The area surrounding these plots are characterized by compacted soils from previous agricultural land -use, so planted stem survival is low. Additionally, a small area (soil borrow area from Site construction) between the main tributary and Kennedy Mill Branch was observed to have bare, eroded, nutrient poor soil and low -planted stem survival. A remedial action plan for this area including fertilization, installation of erosion control matting, and replanting with bare root stems, will be developed in late 2014/early 2015. Further correspondence with the DWR will occur prior to any action. Please feel free to contact me directly at 919.604.9314 with any questions.

The Parcel was designed and constructed to provide mitigation, credits for unavoidable impacts due to development within the Neuse River Basin. Neuse River riparian buffer mitigation credits provided.by°this Parcel are available over the entire Neuse River Basin; United States Geological Survey (USGS) 6 -digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 030202, per 15A NCAC 02B 0242 (Neuse RiverBasm Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy Mitigation Program for Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Buffers) , Mitigation credits for Nutrient Offset are made available within the Neuse. Ricer Basin USGS 8-4igit HUC 0302020,1' excluding the Falls Lake Drainage Basin Prior to construction activities, Parcel land use was agricultural based and utilized for livestock grazing and row crop production with degraded forest pockets Pasture areas were accessible to livestock and were,routinely cleared for hay production, resulting in focal disturbances`to stream banks and wetland soil surfaces. Additional land use practices included the ,maintenance and removal of riparian vegetation; ditching of adjacent riparian- wetlands,' and relocation, dredging, and channelization of onsite streams resulting in degraded water quality ,and excessive sedimentation resulting from unstable banks (stream entrenchment, erosion,, and bank collapse) Adjacent land use is currently characterized by pasture land for hay production and livestock grazing Prior to construction adjacent landowners installed and will be responsible for the maintenance of fencing to protect from livestock trespass and damage to Parcel assets Parcel construction activities were concluded in early April' 2013 An onsite determination for applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B 0233) was conducted in June 2013 and NCDWR-approved the Pancho Bank Parcel Development Package on October 4, 2013 The Sponsor currently owns the property in fee simple, a perpetual Conservation Easement was placed over the Parcel on April 18, 2012 This Parcel was designed and implemented in concurrence with the Pancho Steam_ & Wetland Mitigation Bank (Corps Action ID # SAW -2010- 00142) Restoration of riparian corridors was accomplished in conjuncture with the objectives and µ- methodsoutli ied by ;the Pancho Stream & Wetland ,Mitigation Bank Primary objectives of the II npariaii restoration -1 focused on improving, water quality, enhancing flood attenuation, and Year 2 (2014) Monitoring Report Executive Summary Pancho Stream and-Wetland9Mitigation bank :+ NiPJ l:. 1, `t aF— restoring wildlife habitat by planting a forested riparian buffer adjacent to stream channels, Primary objectives' were accomplished by the following 1 ,Removing nonpomt sources of pollution associated with, agricultural production including a) removing livestock and b) ceasing the broadcast application of fertilizer, pesticides, and other agricultural materials into `and adjacent to Parcel streams ,through treatment of runoff within the forested buffer 2 Reducmg sedimentation within onsite and downstream receiving waters by a) "reducing bank erosion, vegetation maintenance, plowing, and hoof shear adjacent to Parcel streams, and b) removing livestock from the Parcel 3 Promoting floodwater attenuation by, increasing, frictional resistance on floodwaters crossing Parcel floodplains 4, Improving aquatic habitat by enhancing stream bed shading and natural detritus input. 5 Providing a terrestrial wildlife corridor and refuge in an area extensively developed for agricultural production 6 Restoring and reestablishing natural community structure, habitat diversity, and functional continuity 7 Protecting the Parcel's full potential of stream and riparian buffer functions and values in perpetuity The primary objectives were achieved by implementing, a two phase restoration plan, which consisted of the following 1 Re -establishment -of riparian buffer forest up�to 200 linear°feet from channel margins 2. Permanent protection of the Parcel in a conservation easement Vegetation sampling across the Parcel was above the required average density with 663 planted tree stems per acre (excluding livestakes) surviving,in year 2 (2014).

Quantitative monitoring will occur at sixteen (16) 10x10 meter vegetation,plots (Figure -2., Appendix B). Vegetation sampling will be performed,as,outlined in the CVS Level 1-2 Protocol for Recording 'Vegetation, Version, 4 2 ('Lee et al 2008) in September or October for the remainder of the monitoring period or until vegetation success criteria are achieved During ,the first year, vegetation will receive a cursory, visual, evaluation on a periodic basis to ascertain the degree of overtopping, of planted, ,"elements by nuisance species. Success criteria within the riparian buffer and nutrient offset restoration areas will be based on the survival of planted species at a density of 320 stems per acre after five years of monitoring Natural recruits will not count,towards annual success criteria, but may be taken into account during review by the NCDWR 2.0 MITIGATION POTENTIAL Riparian areas suitable to generate mitigation credit were calculated by measuring 50 linear feet horizontally from the top of bank on all subject streams for Neuse riparian buffer credit and ,200 linear feet `from the top of'bank on all hydrologically connected conveyances for nutrient offset mitigation Riparian buffer credits were measured' by the hundredth of an acre and converted into square feet. The Parcel will generate 16:35 acres of restored riparian area, of that 1,1 -33 acres will be used specifically' for nutrient offset credit, generating, 25,75331 pounds of nitrogen offset credit (the NCDWR determined that restored riparian areas at the Parcel would abate 2273 02 pounds per acre of nitrogen), and the remaining 5 02 acres (218,671 2 sq ft ) will be used for Neuse riparian buffer credits The mitigation provided in the Neuse riparian buffer can be used for either Neuse riparian buffer credits or nutrient offset_ credits, but not both The,Sponsorwill request arid receive approval of the transfer of any mitigation credits from NCDWR. All mitigation credit assets shall be shown on the credit ledgers Figure 3 (Appendix B) and Table 1 (Appendix A) summarize the Parcel's components and mitigation credits. 3.0 MAINTENANCE AND CONTINGENCY A remedial action plan will be developed and implemented with the approval of NCDWR in the event that the Parcel or a specific component of the Parcel fails to achieve success criteria as outlined above Other vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include pruning, mulching, and fertilizing In the event that exotic invasive plant species require treatment, such species will be controlled by mechanical (physical removal with the use of'a chainsaw) and/or Year 2 (2014),Monitonng Report Page t Pancho Bank Parcel chemical methods (aquatic approved herbicide) in accordance with North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and, "regulations 4.0 REFERENCES Griffith, G E, J.M.
