Re: Response to Sandy Bridge Farm MY02 Report Comments
Dear Mr. Tsomides,
KCI has reviewed the comments prepared by the DMS for the) Sandy Bridge Farm MY02 Report
and has prepared the following responses:
1. There were multiple loose tubular steel gates around a relict beaver dam new the
upstream end of the project. One is becoming embedded into the stream bank.
KCI Response. An attempt was made to remove these gates by hand in 2018, but only one
was able to be removed. The others had become so embedded in the stream that it was
not possible to remove them with just shovels. KCl plans to remove these gates in 2019
when there is equipment on site to repair the eroding stream at the downstream end of
the project.
2. Please indicate whether KCI has fixed the sign posts at the lower end of the project that
had easement signage on either side of the same post. Easement signage should only be
evident when looking into the easement.
KCl Response: This issue has been corrected.
3. P1oase note the location of the eroding stream on the CCPV (Problem Area. photos 3 and
4).
KCI Response: This has been added to the CCPV.
Please contact me if you have any questions or would like clarification concerning these
responses.
Sincerely,
Adam Spiller
Project Manager

PROJECT SUMMARY
The Sandy Bridge Farm Restoration Site (SBFRS) was completed in March 2017 and restored a total of
6.85 acres of riparian wetland (1.29 acres of wetland rehabilitation and 5.56 acres of wetland
reestablishment) and 1,626 linear feet of stream. The SBFRS is a riparian system located in the Broad
River Basin (03050105 8-digit cataloging unit) in Rutherford County, North Carolina that had been
substantially modified to maximize the use of the area for grazing. The completed project will restore
impacted agricultural lands to a functioning stream and wetland ecosystem with enhanced water quality,
restored hydrology, and improved fish and wildlife habitat.
The SBFRS is protected by a 9.5 acre permanent conservation easement, held by the State of North
Carolina. The site is located off of Rock Road, approximately 3 miles north of Rutherfordton, North
Carolina. The project site is bounded by interspersed pastureland and forested land to the east, agricultural
land and Rock Road to the north-northwest, and Catheys Creek to the southwest.
The North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program's (NCEEP) publication in 2009 identified HUC
03050105070020 (Catheys Creek) as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW). The goals and priorities for
SBRFS are based on the information presented in the Broad River Basin Restoration Priorities: to restore
wetland and stream functions, to maintain and enhance water quality, to restore hydrology, and to
improve fish and wildlife habitat (NCEEP 2009). The project goals, which reflect those from the
approved Mitigation Plan, are in line with the following basin priorities:
- Reduce sources of sediment and nutrients by restoring riparian buffer vegetation, excluding
livestock, and restoring natural geomorphology.
- Prioritize project implementation in the Catheys Creek local watershed planning area.
The goals for the project are to:
- Restore a channelized stream to a meandering C-type channel with a floodplain.
- Buffer and reduce sediment impacts to the project stream.
- Restore a Piedmont Alluvial Forest Community.
- Restore a wetland hydroperiod to drained and livestock-impacted land.
The project goals will be addressed through the following objectives:
- Relocate a channelized stream to its historic landscape position.
- Install an appropriately-sized channel cross-section.
- Install bedform diversity with pools, riffles, and habitat structures.
- Demarcate the project easement boundaries and fence out livestock.
- Plant the site with native trees and shrubs and an herbaceous seed mix that supports the
development of a Piedmont Alluvial Forest.
- Fill field ditches and redevelop wetland microtopography to slow the flow of surface and
subsurface drainage.
To restore the site, select ditches across the site were modified or filled and incoming surface inputs and
seeps were integrated to create a stream/wetland complex. Additionally, Tributary 1 to Catheys Creek was
improved with Priority 1 stream restoration to re-meander the stream and elevate the groundwater table.
The entire site was planted as a Piedmont Alluvial Forest community (Schafale 2012). The site was
constructed as designed with no modification from the design plan.
The majority of monitoring components were installed in March 2017. Nine groundwater monitoring
wells were installed to evaluate the attainment of jurisdictional wetland hydrology. A stream gauge was
installed on Tributary 1 to Catheys Creek to record the occurrence of bankfull events. To determine the
success of the planted mitigation areas, eight 10 in x 10 in permanent vegetation monitoring plots were
Sandy Bridge Farm Restoration Site KCl Associates of NC, PA
DMS Project # 96920 1 2018-MY02

established. The location of the planted stems relative to the origin within these plots, as well as the
species, was recorded and planted stems were grouped into size categories (0-10 cm, 10-50 cm, 50-100
cm, >137 cm). Any volunteers found within the plots were also grouped into size categories by species,
but separate from the planted stems. Six permanent photo reference points were established and will be
taken annually. Four permanent cross-sections (two sets of coupled riffles and pools) were also
established and a detailed longitudinal profile of the stream was taken. Wolman pebble counts were
performed at both of the riffle cross-sections. The cross-section measurements will be repeated in future
monitoring years, but the longitudinal profile will only be repeated if there are concerns about bed
elevation adjustments. Reports will be submitted to DMS by the end of each monitoring year. On March
30, 2018 three additional groundwater monitoring wells were installed along the area of the filled, pre -
construction stream channel. On September 10, 2018, two additional vegetation plots were installed near
the southern end of the site.
Vegetative success criteria for the site is 320 woody stems/acre after three years, 260 woody stems/acre
after five years, and 210 woody stems/acre after seven years. The baseline monitoring counted an average
of 647 woody stems/acre. To meet the hydrologic success criteria, the upper 12 inches of the soil profile
must have continuously saturated or inundated conditions for at least 10% of the growing season during
normal weather conditions. The soil survey for Rutherford County estimates the growing season begins
April 4 and ends November 6 (217 days), meaning the water table must be within 12 inches of the surface
for at least 22 consecutive days during the growing season. A minimum of two bankfull events must also
be recorded during the monitoring period. Bank height ratios should not exceed 1.2 and the entrenchment
ratios should be 2.2 or greater. Visual assessments will also be used to identify problem areas.
MONITORING RESULTS
The site was planted in March 2017 with tree tube protection installed around many of the planted stems.
The second -year monitoring was conducted September 10, 2018. The site averaged 551 planted
stems/acre across all 10 plots. Seven of the 10 plots had greater than 320 planted stems/acre, with Plots 1,
7, and 8 not achieving the success criteria. Including volunteers, the site averaged 647 total stems/acre.
The vegetation near the stream was significantly impacted by beavers during the second monitoring year.
Although there is still a good quantity of woody stems in this area, many of the previously large and
healthy stems have been chewed down to a smaller size or killed by beaver activity. Even with the beaver
impacts, in general, the site is well vegetated, with widespread herbaceous coverage and many healthy
planted stems. KCI is evaluating the need for supplemental planting in areas where the herbaceous
vegetation is outcompeting the planted woody stems and where beaver damage is most severe.
Daily rainfall data were obtained from the NC State Climate Office for a local weather station in
Rutherfordton, NC. In 2018 the months of April, May, July, September and October experienced above
average rainfall, while February, March, June, and August experienced average rainfall. The month of
January, experienced below average rainfall for the site. Overall, the area experienced above average
rainfall during the 2018 growing season. During the site's second growing season, 9 of the 12
groundwater monitoring wells had continuous saturation within 12 inches of the ground surface for 10%
(22 days) or more of the 217 day growing season (April 4 to November 6). Two of the unsuccessful
gauges were from the three placed in the filled stream location. It is expected that that due to the fill
material in the old stream, this specific part of the site may take longer to settle and establish soil
conditions that will hold water as effectively as the undisturbed natural hydric soils throughout the rest of
the site. The other wetland gauge that did not meet hydrology had a gauge malfunction.
The stream gauge has recorded multiple bankfull events in each year since construction, including 11
bankfull events in 2018. This large number of bankfull events is the desired outcome for this project. A
component of the stream design was to provide regular recharging of the riparian wetlands from overbank

stream flows. In June 2018, several large beaver dams were discovered towards the lower half of the
stream. These dams were removed in early August 2018. A second set of dams was discovered in October
2018 and were removed in early November 2018. KCI is actively trapping beavers on-site and monitoring
for further signs of beaver activity. See Appendix B and Appendix E for more information.
The longitudinal profile was not repeated for the second -year survey as there were no concerns about bed
elevation adjustments. The second -year cross-section survey found that the dimensions of the stream are
as designed, with some variation as is typical for stream restoration projects. Cross-section 2 (pool) has
shown a significant amount of aggradation, with a middle channel bar developing in the center of the
stream. It is believed that this is a result of the beaver backwater activity, as well as the large amount of
sediment input from the unbuffered portion of stream just upstream of the project reach. It is anticipated
that much of this sediment will wash through now that the beaver dams have been removed.
The monitored cross-section data have been calculated by adjusting the bankfull elevation to maintain the
baseline bankfull area for each cross-section. A total cross-sectional metric has been added to the cross-
section data to indicate the cross-sectional area below the baseline bankfull elevation. In instances where
there has been some lateral aggradation and narrowing (XS 1) the data show the cross-section having a
significantly higher bankfull width and higher width/depth ratio as compared to previous years. The
comparison of cross-section plots between monitoring events illustrates that this change does not indicate
a problematic change in cross-section condition. Future monitoring will determine if this is a trend or
typical settling of the stream following construction.
The right bank of the stream that flows along the easement's southern boundary has been experiencing
significant erosion due to several areas of obstruction in the center of this channel that are diverting water
into the banks. Although this stream is not part of the project, and is located outside of the easement
bounds, the erosion on the right bank has encroached into the easement. KCI is planning to repair and
stabilize this area within the next year. This will involve removing the mid -channel obstructions and
sloping back the eroding bank. See Appendix B for photos of this area.
