RE: Additional Monitoring for Norwood Gainey Site (G) (EEP IMS #628)
The Norwood Gainey Site is located in Wayne County in the Neuse 03020202 Catalog Unit.
The total acreage of planted stems is 2,033,768 square feet (46.69 acres). The total fee simple property measures
58.384 acres. The area of existing vegetation measures 1.2 acres. During the 10/27/2014 closeout visit, you
requested 6.69 acres to be monitored for an additional two years. EEP staff collected baseline vegetation data on
11/4/2014, using stocking level protocol to identify species composition and stem densities for the acreage
monitored. The acreage monitored contains 377 planted stems per acre and 519 total stems per acre (which
includes native volunteers).
Annual monitoring will occur at the end of the 2015 and 2016 growing seasons and be provided to DWR.
Please find attached a map depicting the six fixed circle plot locations within the acreage monitored, and the
baseline vegetation data.
