The Project is located in the Cape Fear River Basin within Cataloging Unit 03030003 and includes six unnamed tributaries that drain into Muddy Creek approximately 1.2 miles downstream of the project. The current State classification for Muddy Creek is Class WS -IV. The WS -IV classification is intended to protect waters used as sources of water supply for drinking, culinary, or food processing purposes where a WS -I, II or III classification is not feasible. These waters are also protected for Class C uses. The Project's watershed sparsely forested and pasture land, and has historically served this purpose; Figure 4 shows how little change has occurred on the project parcel since 1993. One noteworthy change is the increase of residential property just outside of the project parcel. Water quality stressors currently affecting the Pequod Site include livestock production and lack of forested riparian buffer. Field evaluations determined all reaches to be either intermittent or perennial. A combination of buffer restoration and enhancement is proposed to increase water quality and ecological function and protect these features in perpetuity. The Pequod Site is composed of six stream channels: BFI, BF2, BF3, BF4, BF5, and BF6 (Figure 4). BFI flows directly into Muddy Creek approximately one mile downstream of the site. Reaches BF2, BF3, and BF5 drain to BFI. Reach BF6 drains to Reach BF2 and Reach BF4 drains to reach BF3. BF 1 is a perennial unnamed tributary that is the primary feature onsite and has a drainage area of approximately 2,295 acres. The channel runs through pasture from the northern property boundary to the south before entering a culvert under Huff Road. BF 1 is approximately 1,047 linear feet. A sanitary sewer easement runs parallel to this channel along the right bank. BFI is mostly stable throughout, however, it does exhibit portions of vertical banks and erosion from continued cattle access and the lack of a riparian buffer. BF2 is an intermittent tributary that flows into BFI. This channel runs from the west to east for approximately 1,455 linear feet. BF2 has a drainage area of approximately 34 acres. BF3 is an intermittent tributary that flows from northeast to southwest across the project property and empties into BF 1. A sanitary sewer easement runs parallel to this channel along the left bank. BF3 is approximately 1,463 linear feet and has a drainage area of approximately 65 acres. BF4 is an intermittent tributary that runs through pasture from the northern property boundary to the south before draining to reach BF3. BF4 is approximately 233 linear feet and has a drainage area of approximately 11 acres. BF5 is an intermittent tributary that originates at the southern property boundary before flowing south to its confluence with BFI. BF5 is approximately 328 linear feet and has a drainage area of approximately 10 acres. Reach BF6 originates just downstream of a farm pond and drains to the north to its confluence with Reach BF2 just upstream of an existing gas easement. BF6 is approximately 418 linear feet and has a drainage area of approximately 11 acres. The majority of the buffer on site consists primarily of herbaceous vegetation and very sparse tree cover. Existing tree species within the sparsely forested areas include red cedar (Juniperus virginiana), American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), red maple (Acer rubrum), and sweetgum (Liquidambar tyraciva). Some exotics were noted, including multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), tree of heaven (Ailanthus hissima), and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense). Table 1.
