Project Summary 1.1. Project Setting & Pre-Restoration Conditions Wells Creek #2 ('06 Project # 92688) is a stream mitigation project located near Snow Camp in southwestern Alamance County, NC, in the Carolina Slate Belt region (Figure 1.0). The project consists of two separate parcels: 1) The Northern Reach (stream enhancement) is located along Wells Creek upstream and downstream of Carl Noah Road and along tributary UT3. The Southern Reach (stream preservation) is located along Wells Creek tributaries UT1 and UT2 downstream of Longest Acres Road, 4000 feet southwest of the Northern Reach. The stream segments immediately downstream of each project reach along Wells Creek and UT1 were previously restored (NCEEP project #414, Wells Creek). Tributary UT1 flows into Wells Creek approximately 2,000 feet downstream of the Southern Reach, just north of Beale Road. From there, Wells Creek flows southeast into Cane Creek, which in turn flows eastward into the Haw River upstream of Jordan Lake. Wells Creek on the Northern Reach parcel is an 8- to 15-foot wide perennial stream with a mixed substratum of bedrock, cobble, gravel, sand, and silt, and low to moderate channel incision. Its tributary UT3 is intermittent, with a substratum of cobble, sand, and silt/mud, and is moderately incised toward the lower end. The banks along both streams are mostly forested with large hardwood trees, but the riparian areas were trampled and heavily grazed by cattle and hogs, with little understory or groundcover vegetation between the canopy trees prior to project implementation in 2009-2010. Rooting activity by hogs in and adjacent to UT3 has destabilized the stream banks and bed, causing frequent high turbidity and sediment load in this stream and in the Wells Creek segment downstream of UT3. Unnamed tributary UT1 on the Southern Reach parcel is a 6- to 12-foot wide perennial stream with a rocky substratum, meandering pattern, and minimal channel incision. UT2 is a 5-foot wide intermittent stream with a cobble and clay dominated bed, moderately incised. Only the lowermost 50-ft segment of this stream is within the project easement. Like the Northern Reach, both streams in this area have mature hardwood forest along most of their banks. Minor understory damage and bank trampling by cattle or hogs was present prior to project implementation. 1.2. Project Goals & Objectives The Wells Creek #2 project is in Cape Fear River Basin HUC #03030002-050050, designated as a Targeted Local Watershed in the 2009 Cape Fear River Basin Restoration Priority report. The goals of the project are to improve and protect stream bank stability, water quality and riparian habitat. To achieve these goals, the project has the following objectives: • Reduce direct nutrient loading and fecal coliform inputs into the streams by fencing out cattle and hogs and providing an alternative livestock water system; • Reduce excess sedimentation into the streams by eliminating livestock impacts from hoof shear to forest floor and stream banks; Wells Creek #2 Stream Mitigation Site #92688 Alamance County -- Cape Fear HUC 03030002 3 MY-4 (2014) Annual Monitoring Report RJG&A Environmental Consultants • Reestablish and enhance native forested buffers by planting native plants, removing invasive exotic vegetation, and preventing future negative impacts within the buffer; • Increase surface runoff infiltration and non-point pollutant removal through the buffer, and preserve existing well-established riparian plant communities. 1.3. Project Approach, Components, and Mitigation Assets Mitigation components for the project include 1,897 feet of stream enhancement (EII) and 1,616 feet of stream preservation, providing 1,082 stream mitigation units (SMU) assets. Total conservation easement area is 12.14 acres. Farm BMPs installed in December 2009 at the Northern Reach include 2,610 feet of cattle exclusion fencing, 1,958 feet of hog exclusion fencing, two troughs and water lines for cattle and two troughs and water lines for pigs. Farm BMPs at the Southern Reach consist of 683 feet of cattle exclusion fencing. Patches of invasive exotic weeds (mainly Ligustrum sinense and Rosa multiflora) along both reaches received herbicide treatments in August 2010 and again in May 2011. The Northern Reach (enhancement areas) received tree and shrub plantings in non-forested (former pasture) areas along Wells Creek south of Carl Noah Rd, and understory shrubs were planted beneath the forest canopy along UT3 where livestock had destroyed nearly all of the understory. Planting was done between Nov 2010 and Apr 2011, using existing plant communities along UT1 (Piedmont Alluvial Forest, Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest, and Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest) as a reference for tree and shrub species selection (Schafale and Weakley 1990). Non-forested areas were planted at a density of 436 stems/acre with containerized stock. Areas with mature canopy were planted with understory shrubs to achieve 436 stems/acre total density of existing and planted vegetation. Stream banks alon UT3 were planted at a density of 681 stems/acre within 10 feet of the channel. Additional wetland shrubs and herbs were planted in a muddy hog-wallow area along UT3. 1.4. Project Success Criteria Wells Creek #2 success criteria are based on vegetation survival, success of livestock exclusion, and invasive treatment success as evidenced by a visual assessment, and documented through permanent photo points. Quantitative survival and growth data for planted woody stems are collected from two CVS monitoring plots established along Wells Creek in the Northern Reach (Figure 1.1). Following the 2003 USACE Stream Mitigation Guidelines, vegetation success in the riparian buffer will be based upon an average density of 320 stems per acre at the end of three years of monitoring. A tolerance of 10% mortality rate will be acceptable for year four (288 stems/acre) and year five (260 stems/acre) (USACE 2003). Wells Creek #2 Stream Mitigation Site #92688 Alamance County -- Cape Fear HUC 03030002 4 MY-4 (2014) Annual Monitoring Report RJG&A Environmental Consultants 2.0. Monitoring Results: 2014 2.1. Stream Conditions No stream-bank instability problem or significant loss of riparian vegetation was observed along Wells Creek, UT1 or UT2 during the Apr and Oct 2014 site visits. These stream segments appeared unchanged from last year’s observations. Several trees had blown down along the upper portion of UT3 during a storm sometime between Oct 2013 and Apr 2014, causing minor pattern adjustments to the upper stream channel in this area. The lower end of UT3 near its confluence with Wells Creek remains incised with steep and sparsely wooded banks, similar to its pre-project condition (as reported in previous years), but does not appear to have eroded further since the 2011 baseline report. The livestock exclusion fence in this area is close to the stream bank, which limits the potential for woody vegetation recovery along this bank segment. 2.2. Vegetation Conditions CVS Plots: Both vegetation monitoring plots met the project success criteria for year 4, with an average density of 486 planted stems per acre. Native volunteer woody seedlings are abundant in both plots, and average density of planted plus native volunteer stems was 2084 stems per acre in 2014. Invasive Lespedeza cuneata is becoming abundant along the western edge of plot 2 and some adjacent enhancement areas, but is not widespread in the project area. Enhancement Areas Beyond CVS Plots: Based on visual assessment of the former pasture areas along Wells Creek outside of the CVS plots, planted woody stem survival and native volunteer recruitment appears to be good throughout the enhancement area, despite dense growth of tall grasses and herbaceous weeds. Visual assessment of the understory enhancement area along UT3 revealed good to fair survival of the planted shrubs. Dense forest canopy may be limiting shrub growth rates. Some shrubs were presumably buried or crushed under fallen trees in late 2013 or early 2014, but the canopy gaps created may increase growth rates of the remaining shrubs (mainly buckeye, pawpaw, and spicebush). Invasive Microstegium grass is abundant along much of UT3 and near the confluence with Wells Creek. Volunteer tree seedlings are numerous in this area, especially green ash and sweetgum. Preservation Areas: Portions of the Northern Reach along Wells Creek, including the segment north of Carl Noah Rd, have patches of multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), despite herbicide treatments in 2010-2011. These species are abundant beyond the conservation easement, especially along adjacent roadsides and powerlines. The Southern Reach also has patches of invasive Ligustrum and Rosa both within and adjacent to the conservation easement, mainly at the upper and lower ends where these weeds are common along roadsides and pasture edges. Invasive species patches are mapped in the CCPV figures, and are unchanged since last year.

Conservation Easement Conditions Wells Creek Main Stem (Northern Reach): At the two cattle crossings on Wells Creek south of Carl Noah Rd, the fencing wire remains disengaged from the fence posts in some areas, as noted in previous years reports. However, the crossing ends are blocked with electric wires so that cattle do not have access to the crossings except under controlled conditions. The downstream cattle crossing has a gap below the lower fence wire where Wells Creek flows under it (accessible only when an end wire is detatched), but there was no evidence of livestock taking advantage of this gap to access the conservation area. No livestock encroachment or damage inside the conservation areas along Wells Creek was evident. The Wells Creek preservation segment north of Carl Noah Rd is not fenced, but no livestock are kept adjacent to this area. Wells Creek UT3 (Northern Reach): A storm during the winter of 2013-2014 knocked down numerous trees onto the easement fence, mainly along the upper portion of UT3 in the Northern Reach. All of the fence breaks had been repaired at the time of the Apr 2014 field visit, and no new fence damage was noted in Oct 2014. In Apr and Oct 2013 there was no further evidence of livestock encroachment in this area. The landowner has removed the hogs and now uses the adjacent pastures for cattle only. Wells Creek UT1 & UT2 (Southern Reach): Livestock exclusion fencing along the northeast and southeast boundaries of the Southern Reach appeared to be intact in Apr and Oct 2014, and no livestock encroachment or damage inside the conservation area was evident. A gap under the fence is present where it crosses UT-2, but the existing fence appears adequate to exclude cattle. The fence segment previously broken by a fallen tree in 2013 was repaired in 2014. There is no fence along the roadside (Longest Acres Rd) or along the southwest easement boundary, which is bordered by forest.
