Introduction
Wildlands Holdings VI, LLC ("Sponsor") proposes to develop the Dudley Pond Mitigation Site (Site) as the
first project under the Wildlands Cape Fear 05 Umbrella Mitigation Bank ("bank"). Wildlands Holdings
VI, LLC is wholly owned by Wildlands Engineering, Inc.
The Site is in Cedar Creek Township, Cumberland County, NC, approximately 11 miles southeast of
Fayetteville and 7.3 miles north of the Bladen/Cumberland County line (Figure 1). The project is in the
14-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HU) 03030005010010 and NC Department of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) Subbasin 03-06-15. The Site will provide stream mitigation credits in the Cape River Basin
03030005 (Cape Fear 05) (Figure 2). The project involves the restoration of Cedar Creek and two
unnamed tributaries to Cedar Creek (Figure 3). The restoration of these streams will provide 7,508
stream credits. The Site will be protected by a 47-acre conservation easement. The Site Protection
Instrument detailing the easement is included in Appendix 1.

2.0 Basin Characterization and Site Selection
The Site is in the Cape Fear 05 Basin, the DWR subbasin 03-06-15, and the 03030005010010 14-digit
Hydrologic Unit (HU). There are no current local or state watershed plans associated specifically with
this subbasin. The Cape Fear 05 is largely forested, but contains development extending from
Fayetteville and Wilmington, and several major highways, including NC-53, NC-41, NC-87, and US-74
(Figure 4). The Dudley Pond Mitigation Site was selected because it would allow unavoidable impacts to
Waters of the United States within the service area to be mitigated appropriately and provide a means
for the economic growth of this region to continue while ensuring aquatic resources and water quality
are maintained.
The site is located in the headwaters of the Cape Fear 05 basin (Figure 2). Although the watershed is
dominated by forested land and agricultural land, suburban sprawl from Fayetteville, Hope Mills, and
Raeford area contribute to a higher proportion of urban area (-10%) than the remainder of the Cape
fear 05 subbasin. Land use within the Cedar Creek watershed indicate the primary watershed stressors
originate from animal operations, row crop agriculture, and fish migration barriers. These stressors
would include livestock access to streams, runoff from agricultural fields inputting excess nutrients and
bacteria, lack of adequate riparian buffers, and in -line ponds and culverts hindering aquatic organism
passage. The site will address the stressors associated with a lack of riparian buffers, in -line ponds, and
protecting the site from developmental pressures through the establishment of a conservation
easement.

Baseline and Existing Conditions
3.1 Watershed Conditions
The Site watershed (Table 2 and Figure 5) is situated in rural Cumberland County in the township of
Cedar Creek, near Fayetteville, NC. The site has three Carolina Bays that drain to the project site. The
bays were investigated in person to determine that they drained to the watershed. Land use within the
watershed is predominately forested and agricultural with a small portion of developed land consisting
of houses and small stores. Land use at the site, reported in Table 2, has remained essentially
unchanged since at least 1951 based on review of historic aerial photographs (Appendix 4). The
watershed has not changed significantly in land use or riparian buffer extents.
This consistency in land use within the project watershed indicates that watershed processes affecting
hydrology, sediment supply, and nutrient and pollutant delivery have not varied widely over time. One
exception is the recent breach of the pond dam. Additionally, the bank is located in a rural watershed
where the dominant land uses are agriculture, forest, and silviculture. The land is zoned for agriculture,
therefore, watershed processes and stressors from outside the project limits are likely to remain
consistent throughout the implementation, monitoring, and closeout of this project.

3.2 Landscape Characteristics
The Site is in the Carolina Flatwoods ecoregion of the Coastal Plain physiographic province. The Coastal
Plain geology is characterized by relatively flat terraces of primarily unconsolidated sediments and
carbonate rocks ranging in age from Cretaceous to Quaternary. These layered materials accumulated as
sediments deposited in what was once a shallow ocean or shelf along a shallow ocean. The deposits
formed in roughly parallel belts that trend southwest to northeast. The underlying geology of the site is
mapped in the Black Creek Formation (Kb) and the Cape Fear Formation (Kc), which both formed during
the Cretaceous period (NCGS, 1985). The Black Creek Formation is described as gray to black, lignitic clay
with thin plates of sand from mica and thick lenses of cross -bedded sand. The Cape Fear Formation is
described as a yellowish gray to bluish gray sandstone and sandy mudstone with red to yellowish orange
mottles that is indurate and graded with laterally continuous bedding.
Soils on site range between silty clay loams and loamy sands. They are deep to very deep soils. The well
drained soils on site —Norfolk loamy sand, Udorthents, and Wagram loamy sand — are located along
sections of Cedar Creek Reach 1 (NRCS, 2011). The poorly drained soils on site —Chewacla loam, Dunbar
loam, Johnston loam, Lynchburg sandy loam, and Torhunta and Lynn Haven soils — are located along T1,
T2, Cedar Creek Reach 2, and sections of Cedar Creek Reach 1. Figure 7 provides a soil map of the Site.
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 2 January 2019

The deep soils and geologic structure of the region indicate no natural grade control (e.g., bedrock) will
be available. Consequently, the restoration design will include constructed grade control.
A soil scientist took preliminary sediment core samples within the pond bed that became exposed with
the breach of the dam to determine sediment composition. The layers of sediment deposits consist of
silt clay, sandy clay loam, sand, and loams. There were also lenses of clay at various depths. Possible
historical deltas were found at depths of 11-48 inches with buried wood found at 36 inches. Rounded
pebbles indicating a possible historic stream bed were found at 36 inches of depth. A boring location
map and descriptions are located in Appendix 4.
3.3 Project Resources
The site includes lands that have been historically used as a mill pond, for row crop production, and for
silviculture. Topography is typical of the coastal plain, with gentle, unconfined alluvial valleys. Three
sand bed, perennial streams are located on site: Cedar Creek, T1 and T2. Both T1 and T2 drain to Cedar
Creek. The majority of Cedar Creek within the project limits was ponded since pre-1951. The dam is an
18-foot tall earthen dam with an open orifice primary outlet structure and an overflow spillway. The
dam failed during Hurricane Matthew in 2016 via the emergency spillway. The spillway eroded 13
vertical feet on the right side of the pond. The spillway was repaired, and then failed again during
Hurricane Florence in 2018. Since the second failure it has not been rebuilt and Cedar Creek passes
through the eroded spillway and flows parallel (west to east) to the old dam before re -connecting to the
original outfall. The drained pond bed has now developed riparian wetlands, similar to the rest of the
site. The following sections describe stream and wetland resources in more detail. Stream and wetland
assessment forms are located in Appendix 3 and 2, respectively.
Cedar Creek
Cedar Creek flows north to south through the property. Reach 1 was ditched and straightened between
1974 and 1993 and was pushed to the right edge of the valley. It is paralleled on the right bank by a
maintenance path and drainage ditch. It is incised and has erosion present on the majority of the banks,
indicating that it is actively widening. There is a lack of bedform diversity. Riparian buffers are located on
either side of the stream. As the stream approaches the pond bed (Reach 2), the channel that has
recently formed since the dam failure winds through the pond sediment deposits in the center of the
valley before paralleling the dam both upstream of the breach and downstream of the breach. There is a
high likelihood the breach will cause a headcut through the unconsolidated material of the pond over
time.
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 3 January 2019

T1
T1 enters the site from an agricultural field as a
straightened and ditched channel as evidenced
by overburden material on the banks. There is
poor bedform diversity without distinguishable
riffles and pools. The channel is entrenched,
preventing hydrologic connection with riparian
wetlands. There is a riparian buffer present on
either side while on the project property.
T2
T2 flows through an in -line pond upstream of the
project site and enters the project site through a
culvert on John Hall Road. The right riparian buffer
is in row crop and the left buffer is sparsely
vegetated until the confluence of Cedar Creek,
where it enters a forested wetland. The stream is
channelized, incised, and moderately entrenched.
A beaver dam was located on the stream during
the existing conditions survey and has since been
removed.

On March 11 through 13, 2019, Wildlands investigated the extent of Waters of the United States within
the project area. All jurisdictional resources were located by sub -meter GPS or conventional survey.
USACE staff approved the extent of jurisdictional resources on March 21, 2019. There are nine
jurisdictional features on -site as well as a linear conveyance and a beaver inundated area along T2 (at
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 4 January 2019

the time of delineation). Wetland determination forms representative of on -site jurisdictional areas as
well as non -jurisdictional upland areas are included in Appendix 2.
A field assessment of existing wetland quality was conducted on April 11, 2019, with specific focus on
the wooded riparian area of Cedar Creek Reach 1. Each assessment area (7 in total) was evaluated using
the NCWAM (Figure 8). Assessment area boundaries were determined based on upland boundary or
observation of some factor which could result in different functionality from the adjacent area.
Differences in vegetation species proportion, structure, and density were primary factors distinguishing
each assessment area. A representative location was selected within each assessment area to serve as
the center of a circular 1/101" acre plot for woody stem inventory. All woody stems with a diameter at
breast height (DBH) greater than or equal to two inches within the sample plot were an assigned to a
two-inch DBH class. Each assessment area was evaluated using the North Carolina Wetland Assessment
Methodology to assess functionality (Appendix 2).
All assessment areas scored low for the overall wetland rating, low for hydrology and water quality
functional ratings, and low to medium for habitat function ratings (Appendix 2). Cedar Creek Reach 1 is
incised such that flood flows do not access the floodplain during typical rain events. Thus, functional
benefits associated with overbank flooding have been compromised.
The bed of the recently breached pond was delineated as wetland. As it has been inundated until
recently, there is no forested vegetation and it is mainly comprised of herbaceous species. With the
breach of the dam, sediment deposited in the pond area is at a high risk for channel incision. If this
occurs, it would separate the stream hydrologically from the maturing wetland.

Existing Vegetation
Using the results of the wetland assessment areas discussed above, vegetation within the riparian
wetland area of Cedar Creek Reach 1, T1, and T2 can be separated into three categories. The first
category is influenced by the beaver dam on T2, which holds water on the Cedar Creek floodplain
upstream of T2. This category is dominated by a mixture of swamp tupelo (Nyssa biflora) with
interspersed red maple (Acer rubrum). The second category, located in the northern section of the site,
is dominated by small diameter swamp tupelo. The third category, located directly adjacent to Cedar
Creek, is dominated by small diameter red maple interspersed with mixed diameter swamp tupelo.
Additional canopy species in all evaluated areas include swamp titi, loblolly pine (Pinus taeda),
sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), American holly (Ilex apaca), and sweetbay magnolia (Magnolia
virginiana). Herbacous species in all evaluated areas include wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca), soft rush,
and haspan flatsedge (Cyperus haspan).
The floodplain of Cedar Creek Reach 2, in the recently drained pond bottom, has been primarily
colonized by soft rush. Carex species, tearthumb (Persicaria spp.), and dogfennel (Eupatorium
capillifolium) are also present, along with a few isolated water tupelo (Nyssa aquatica) trees. Red maple,
sweetgum, tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), groundsel tree (Baccharis halimifolia), and hazel alder
(Alnus serrulata) have also begun to grow in the pond bed.
At the southern tip of the conservation easement, below the existing dam, there are invasive species
including kudzu (Pueraria montana), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), multiflora rose (Rosa
multiflora), and autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellata). Chinese privet is also scattered along the north
side of T1 on the eastern edge of the easement area.
3.4 Overall Functional Uplift Potential
The primary stressors on site are incision from channelization and resulting scour, the failure of the dam
at the downstream end of the project, and a lack of riparian buffer on the southern half of the project.
These stressors led to NCSAM scores of medium and low. Without intervention, Cedar Creek will
continue to incise, which will further disconnect riparian wetland hydrology. Ultimately, functional uplift
for this Site is linked to improvement in and maintenance of hydrologic connectivity between streams
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 6 January 2019

and riparian wetlands. Additionally, establishing a riparian buffer will protect and enhance this
connectivity. Functional uplift for the site will be achieved through the following:
• Restoring degraded stream channels to reduce erosion and reconnect streams to riparian
wetlands to restore hydrologic connection.
• Remove the existing dam and providing grade control on streams to eliminate headcutting.
• Planting riparian buffers to shade streams, help stabilize streams, and promote woody debris in
system.
• Protecting the site with a conservation easement.
These project components are described in Section 5 in terms of goals, objectives, and outcomes for the
project and in greater detail in Section 6 as the project site mitigation plan.
3.5 Site Constraints to Functional Uplift
There are a couple known Site constraints that will be addressed as part of this project. A single strand
utility distribution line runs along T2 that was used to power a now abandoned gas line that terminates
on the right bank of the channel. All infrastructure relating to this will be removed as part of this project.
Additionally, beaver activity has been observed on T2. Wildlands has contracted with the U.S.
Department of Agriculture to remove beavers. There are no proposed stream projects within the project
limits and no other known constraints to functional uplift.
4.0 Regulatory Considerations

Care has been taken to design the streams to remain hydrologically connected to existing wetlands on -
site, while minimizing impacts to those wetlands. The majority of floodplain grading will be considered a
temporary impact to wetlands as hydrologic connectivity is anticipated to improve after channel
restoration, and vegetation will be re-established. Any wetlands within the conservation easement and
outside of the limits of disturbance will be flagged with safety fence during construction to prevent
unintended impacts. This will be noted in the final construction plans on the Erosion and Sediment
Control Plan and Detail plan sheets, as well as in the project specifications.
Table 6 estimates the anticipated impacts to wetland areas on this project. Final impacts will be
provided in the Pre -Construction Notification, after proposed floodplain grading has been completed,
and will more accurately quantify these data. The numbers below reflect a conservative estimate of
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 7 January 2019

potential impacts. Figure 9 shows the locations of preliminary, anticipated impacts. The Pre -
Construction Notification, including this data, will be provided to the IRT in the Final Mitigation Plan.

4.2 Threatened and Endangered Species
Wildlands utilized the US Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation
(IPaC) and the NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) databases to search for federally listed threatened
and endangered plant and animal species in Cumberland County, NC. Three animal and four plant
species identified as threatened or endangered are currently listed near the project area on IPaC (Table
7). The NHP also lists over 30 rare and watch list plant and animal species within Cumberland County.

A pedestrian survey of the site was performed on October 3, 2019. No suitable habitat and/or individual
federally listed species of American Alligator, Saint Francis' satyr butterfly, American chaffseed, or
rough -leaved loosestrife were identified in the project area. Suitable habitat was found for the red -
cockaded woodpecker, pondberry and Michaux's sumac but no individuals of any of the federally listed
species were found. Wildlands concludes the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the
red -cockaded woodpecker and the project will have no effect on pondberry and Michaux's sumac.
The USFWS reviewed the prospectus for this project and responded on December 6, 2018, stating "the
Service currently has no objections... to the project" but would like to reserve their concurrence with the
USACE determination of "no effect" until after they are able to review the mitigation plan. A letter
requesting review and comment was also sent to the NC Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) on

radius of the project location. There are three Historic Preservation areas listed, the closest is the Cedar
Creek Fire Lookout Tower at 1.8 miles. Due to distance, the lookout tower, Maxwell House, and
Stedman Historic District will not be impacted by the project. SHPO reviewed the project prospectus and
responded in a letter dated December 28, 2018 stating they are "aware of no historic resources which
would be affected by the project". There are also two natural heritage areas and one managed area
within five miles of the Site, but none are contiguous with the project location (Figure 1). According to
the research and based on the response from SHPO, no historic resources or natural heritage areas will
be affected by this project. For regulatory communication, please refer to Appendix 5.
4.4 FEMA Floodplain Compliance and Hydrologic Trespass
The Site is represented on the Cumberland County Flood Insurance Rate Map Panel 0464. The entirety
of the site is mapped as Zone X with minimal flood risk. Zone X is an area outside the 500-year storm
and protected by levee from the 100-year storm. The streams are not modeled. Wildlands will
coordinate with the Cumberland County floodplain administrator to obtain the appropriate floodplain
development permit for the project.
5.0 Mitigation Site Goals and Objectives
The overall goal of the project is to improve stream and riparian wetland function through stream
restoration and riparian buffer re -vegetation. Project goals have been set in order to achieve the
functional uplift outlined in Section 3 and alleviate the watershed stressors. The project goals and
related objectives are described in Table 8.

Design Approach and Mitigation Work Plan
6.1 Design Approach Overview
The design approach (Figure 10) for this site was developed to maximize functional uplift and meet the
goals and objectives described in Section 5. Cedar Creek, T1, and T2 are proposed as stream restoration.
Restoration activities will include moving channels to the center of the valleys and establishing new
planform, cross -sections, and profiles specific to the reaches. The table below summarizes the primary
impairments to each stream reach and the proposed restoration activity.

6.2 Reference Streams
Reference reaches were chosen to inform the design because of their similarities to the Site streams
including drainage area, valley slope, morphology, and bed material. They were also chosen for their
examples of pool formation using woody debris in low slope conditions. Cedar Creek, directly upstream
of the project limits, was used as the primary reference for Cedar Creek on site. This stream flows
through a wooded area for over 5,000 ft and has stable plan form, dimension, and profile. Six other
reference reaches were identified for the Site and used to support the design of T1 and T2 (Figure 11)
and the overall design discharge analysis. Geomorphic parameters for these reference reaches are
summarized in Appendix 4 (except for reference reaches only used for discharge analysis). A brief
description of each reference reach is included in Table 10.

6.4 Design Bankfull Discharge Analysis
The primary design goal for restoration reaches on site is to hydraulically connect the reaches to their
existing floodplains to prevent continued incision along Site streams. This means selecting a design
discharge that allows for frequent overbank events. Multiple methods were used to develop design
discharges for restoration reaches, including published regional curve data (Doll et al. 2003), reference
reach data, and existing bankfull indicators. Additionally, Wildlands performed a regional flood
frequency analysis using U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) gage sites, Results are shown in Table 13 and
illustrated in Figure 12.

The results of the discharge analysis provided a range of discharge values. As illustrated in Figure 12, the
most concurrence was found between values for the site -specific reference reach curve, the Wildlands
regional flood frequency analysis 1.2-year storm, and the Mannings' values from on -site bankfull
indicators. The final design values are generally in line with the site -specific reference reach curve.
6.5 Sediment Transport Analysis
Wildlands performed a qualitative assessment of sediment supply and sources in the project watershed
using past, current, and projected future land use conditions from the National Land Cover Database
(NLCD), historic and current aerial photography, and future county zoning maps. For a description of the
historic land uses and changes in land use in the watershed, refer to Section 3.2.
Runoff from agricultural fields is a likely consistent contributor of sediment supply to all project streams
and erosion from logging is an episodic contributor. Off -site, Cedar Creek exhibits little streambank
erosion and the stream itself is not likely contributing to the sediment load. However, T1 is actively
incising and widening upstream of the site and contributing sediment downstream. The pond above T2
acts as a sediment trap, though it may periodically flush sediment during large enough storm events (i.e.
hurricanes).
The prominent sediment source within the site is stream bank erosion that is exhibited on all project
reaches. Despite this contribution, and sediment sources upstream, there are no signs of aggradation
within the site streams, indicating that streams are prone to degradation with the current sediment
IoadsA competence analysis was performed using shear stress as calculated by the Shields (1936) and
Andrews (1984) equation described by Rosgen (2001). The results of the competence analysis are shown
in Table 14.

The competence analysis was used to guide channel plan, pattern, profile, and material sizing. Site
streams are predominately sandbed with interspersed gravel. Cedar Creek Reach 1, T1, and T2 have low
valley slopes and overall channel slopes. To ensure adequate sediment transport competence was
maintained, reaches were designed with longer pools and shorter riffles. This increased localized
velocities at the stream riffles. The competence analysis on these reaches indicated reaches could
transport medium sized gravel, but not the maximum particle size. Knowing localized shear stresses
could be higher based on individual riffle velocities, the bed material will be sized to pass sand and small
gravels, with the D50 and Dmax being similar to existing conditions. Additionally, since the site is prone
to degradation, design will include threshold structures to prevent head cuts from forming and
migrating. Such structures will include log drops, constructed riffles with rock, and combinations of the
two.
6.6 Project Implementation
6.6.1 Cedar Creek Reach 1 and T1
Cedar Creek Reach 1 and T1 will be restored using a Priority 1 restoration approach. Streams will be
reconnected with an active floodplain and the channels will be reconstructed with stable dimension,
pattern, and profile that will transport the water and sediment delivered to the system. Streams will
meander through their natural valleys, restoring pattern to previously straightened and ditched systems.
The ditch parallel to the maintenance path on the right floodplain of Cedar creek will be filled and water
directed into Reach 1. Reach 1 is a very flat section of the project. The cross-section for this reach is
larger than upstream or downstream to accommodate the slow down in water through this reach.
Likewise, as discussed in the Sediment transport sections, pools were designed flat to allow for grade
drop over riffles. Stream structures in this reach are placed primarily for habitat formation and
maintenance as there is low shear stress. Woody material will be incorporated as much as possible to
mimic conditions found in the reference reach upstream.
T1 is a very short reach connecting to cedar Creek Reach 1. It will have a grade control structure at the
top to prevent headcuts moving off property in the future.
Cedar Creek Reach 2
The dam at the downstream end of Cedar Creek will be removed and Cedar Creek and its floodplain will
be lowered along Reach 2 to remove legacy sediment and tie the channel in to the downstream bed
elevation. The stream will begin cutting down at the head of Cedar Creek Reach 2 and continue at a
relatively consistent slope until it meets the stream below the dam. A floodplain will be excavated from
the legacy sediment that is a minimum of twice the belt width of the channel and allows the stream to
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 14 January 2019

meander without the floodplain itself meandering. The valley slopes will be gentle to form a U-shape
valley.
Borings were taken by a licensed soil scientist in a grid across the old pond bed (Appendix 4).
Information in these borings was used to identify soil characteristics at the proposed floodplain
elevation. This information, along with soil fertility tests to be taken at various depths, will provide
information on what depth of soil from the pond bottom will be harvested and replaced as topsoil
within the proposed floodplain to promote the best growth of vegetation. The top layer of soil may be
used, or some underlying layer, as this is all soil deposited behind the dam.
Structures along Cedar Creek Reach 2 are chosen for both grade control and habitat needs. This reach
contains more Angled Log riffles and Angled Log Drops along to prevent headcutting through the legacy
sediment. These structures also aid in the formation and maintenance of pools. Brush toe will be used
on the banks to provide protection from shear stress as well as shelter for fish.
T2
T2 will be a shallow Priority 2 restoration with cut averaging one foot in depth along the reach. The large
culvert under the road prohibits raising the stream any further. The floodplain will be over twice the
beltwidth of the stream, with a gentle U-shape valley slopes to reach the existing grade. The previously
straightened stream will be meandered through the existing valley. Utilities along this reach will be
decommissioned and infrastructure removed, as previously mentioned. Structures along this reach will
be primarily habitat driven, incorporating logs and woody debris to promote fish and macroinvertebrate
habitat.
6.7 Vegetation, Planting Plan, and Land Management
6.7.1 Vegetation and Planting Plan
The objective of the planting plan is to establish, over time, a thriving riparian buffer composed of native
tree species. This restored buffer will improve riparian habitat, help the restored streams stay stable,
shade the streams, and provide a source for LWD and organic material to the streams. The Site will be
planted to the extents of the conservation easement. Riparian buffers will be planted with early and late
successional native vegetation (a mixture of trees and shrubs). The specific species composition to be
planted was selected based on the community type, occurrence of species in riparian buffers adjacent to
the Site, best professional judgement on species establishment, and anticipated Site conditions in the
early years following project implementation. Species chosen for planting are listed on Sheet 3.0 of the
Draft Plans located in Appendix 9.
The riparian buffer areas will be planted with bare root seedlings. Species planted as bare roots will be
planted at 12-foot by 6-foot spacing (targeted densities after monitoring year 3 are 320 stems per acre).
In addition, streambanks will be planted with live stakes. Herbaceous plugs will be planted throughout
the site in combination with instream structures to add toe -of -slope protection for the streambanks.
To help ensure tree growth and survival, soil amendments may be added to areas of the floodplain
throughout the Site where overburden material is removed, especially in the area previously covered by
Dudley Pond. Soil composition tests will be performed in areas of cut and appropriate amendments will
be applied based on the results. Additionally, topsoil will be stockpiled and reapplied before permanent
seeding and planting activities take place.
Invasive species on Site are present throughout the existing vegetation. At the southern tip of the
conservation easement below the existing dam, there are invasive species such as kudzu, Chinese privet,
multiflora rose, mimosa (Albizzia julibrissin), and sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata). Chinese privet
is also scattered along the north side of T1 on the eastern side of the easement area. The entire extent
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 15 January 2019

of the powerline corridor has high densities of multiflora rose, Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera
japonica), Callery pear (Pyrus calleryana), and Chinese privet.
As much existing invasive species as possible will be removed before and during construction. Post
construction, the presence and extents of invasive species will be monitored and managed. Treatment
of invasive species will continue as necessary throughout the life of the project to ensure project
stability and success of the riparian and streambank vegetation.
Additional monitoring and maintenance issues regarding vegetation can be found in Sections 9 and 10
and Appendix 6.
6.7.2 Land Management
The primary purpose of land management prior to construction is to effectively treat most invasive plant
populations on the site. Initial work took place in August 2019 treating kudzu and woody invasive plant
species in the southern tip of the easement. A large portion of the utility corridor was treated for
Japanese honeysuckle and other invasive species. The utility company sprayed >5-foot tall vegetation in
their easement summer 2019, effectively killing several Callery pear of seed -producing age classes.
All known mature mimosa and Callery pear individuals were treated prior to seed production in 2019 to
limit recruitment in soils disturbed by construction. Invasive plant populations not treated or effectively
controlled by the 2019 treatments will be monitored and treated post -construction. All other
populations of invasive plants on the site will be monitored by Wildlands and treated as necessary
during the monitoring period. Wildlands will also monitor the site for future land management issues,
such as floodplain erosion, bare areas, and boundary encroachments, that arise during the monitoring
period.
6.8 Project Risk and Uncertainties
There are no utilities crossing the project area that would require outside maintenance. The streams
have been designed with threshold riffles and additional grade control structures to prevent erosion and
headcuts within the stream channel and through the old pond bed. They will also promote movement of
sediment through the system from any unforeseen inputs due to changes in land use. As this is a
sandbed system and there is potential for logging events within the watershed, sediment pulses are
expected to move through the system that may periodically inundate stream channels. This may also
occur during large storm events (i.e. hurricanes). Channels are expected to flush out this sediment and
reform during subsequent storm events.
Determination of Credits
The final stream credits associated with the Site are listed in Table 15. Stream Restoration is at a ratio of
1:1. All riparian buffers are the required minimum of 50 feet. The Wilmington District Stream Buffer
Credit Calculator (updated 1/19/2018) was used to determine final crediting for the "Additional Credit
from Extended Buffers" shown in Table 15, below. The results of the Credit Calculator are located in
Appendix 7 with the credit release schedule.

8.0 Performance Standards
The stream performance standards for the project will follow approved performance standards
presented in North Carolina Interagency Review Team's (NCIRT) Monitoring Requirements and
Performance Standards for Compensatory Mitigation in North Carolina (February 2013) and the
Wilmington District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update (NCIRT, October 2016).
Annual monitoring and routine site visits will be conducted to assess the condition of the finished
project by a qualified scientist.
Changes in the channel that indicate a movement toward stability or enhanced habitat include a
decrease in the width -to -depth ratio in meandering channels or an increase in pool depth. It is
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 17 January 2019

important to note that in sand bed channels pools and bed forms (ripples, dunes, etc.) may migrate over
time as a natural function of the channel hydraulics. It is also of note that sand bed streams are highly
mobile and movement of the bed material during storm events is not considered a sign of instability.
This could lead to changes in pool depth from storm to storm. These sorts of bed changes do not
constitute a problem or indicate a need for remedial actions. If channel changes indicate a movement
toward stability, remedial action will not be taken.
This is a sand bed system and the nature of the bed material is not expected to change over time. No
pebble counts will be conducted for the project reaches and no performance standard is being set for
substrate.
The extent of invasive species coverage will be monitored and controlled as necessary throughout the
required seven-year monitoring period.
Monitoring Plan
The Site monitoring plan has been developed to ensure that the required performance standards are
met, and project goals and objectives are achieved. Table 16, below, describes how the monitoring plan
is set up in order to verify project goals and objectives have been achieved.

1. Cross -sections will be permanently marked with rebar to establish location. Surveys will include points measured
at all breaks in slope, including top of bank, bankfull, edge of water, and thalweg.
2. Pattern and profile will be assessed visually during semi-annual site visits. Longitudinal profile will be collected
during as -built baseline monitoring survey only, unless observations indicate lack of stability and profile survey is
warranted in additional years.
3. Pebble counts will not be performed due to the sand bed nature of the streams.
4. Crest gages will be inspected quarterly, evidence of bankfull events will be documented with a photo when
possible. Transducers will be set to record stage once every 3 hours. The transducer will be inspected and
downloaded quarterly.
5. Vegetation monitoring will follow CVS protocols.
6. Locations of exotic and nuisance vegetation will be mapped.

10.0 Long -Term Management Plan
10,1 Ownership and Long-term Manager
The Site will remain in private ownership, protected in its entirety, and managed under the terms
detailed in the conservation easement. Unique Places to Save (UP2Save) will serve as the Grantee and
long-term manager and will be the party responsible for long-term management. The conservation
easement will be transferred to UP2Save prior to the initial credit release.
UP2Save is a 501c3 non-profit organization that is committed to land conservation through sustainable
planning and management. UP2Save has the ability, both logistically and financially, to monitor and
enforce the provisions of the conservation easement and long-term management plan. The organization
operates in a sustainable manner to facilitate operations well into the future. UP2Save has been
approved to serve as the easement holder and long-term manager on several mitigation banks in North
Carolina, including Falling Creek and Box Creek projects. Additional qualifications and UP2Save's annual
report can be provided upon request.
10,Z Long -Term Management Activities
Prior to the initial credit release and following authorization of the Mitigation Banking Instrument, the
Site will be protected in perpetuity with a conservation easement. Following the issuance of the close-
out letter (i.e., final determination of success), long-term management activities will be conducted to
ensure the Site remains perpetually monitored. The long-term manager will be responsible for
inspecting the Site annually, conducting the long-term management activities described below, and
rectifying identified deficiencies as necessary. The restrictions and long-term management
responsibilities will convey with the land, should the property be transferred in the future. The long-
term manager will be responsible for periodic inspection of the Site to ensure that the restrictions
documented in the recorded easement are upheld.

10.3 Funding Mechanism
Anticipated long-term management activities and their associated annual cost are listed in Table 19
below. Wildlands will fund a stewardship endowment that will be managed by UP2Save. UP2Save's
endowment is designated to provide on -going revenue to support long-term management activities. The
stewardship endowment is invested to provide recurring revenue to cover the cost of anticipated annual
activities, easement defense, and violation resolution.
The level of effort for each activity is listed in hours or as a lump sum (LS). The cost per unit or labor rate
and anticipated frequency were utilized to calculate the total and annual activity cost. For example, the
steward anticipates two hours of staff time at a rate of $50 per hour to support adjacent landowner
coordination, which may consist of coordinating with current and adjacent landowners to ensure access
and maintain relationships and scheduling site visits. A conservative (lower than anticipated) rate of
return (or capitalization rate) of 4.50% and the estimated annual costs of the identified management
activities were utilized to determine the endowment funding requirement.

10.4 Contingency Plan
Should UP2Save be unable to fulfill the long-term management responsibilities, a plan to transfer the
responsibilities and stewardship endowment will be presented to the USACE. Long-term management
responsibilities will not be transferred unless the long-term manager receives written authorization
from the USACE.
Adaptive Management Plan
Upon completion of Site construction, Wildlands will implement the post -construction monitoring
protocols and minor remedial actions (routine maintenance) will be performed as needed for the
duration of the monitoring period. Wildlands, as the Sponsor, will notify the USACE immediately if
monitoring results or visual observations suggest a trend towards instability, major remedial actions are
needed, or that performance standards cannot be achieved. Should major remedial measures be
required, the Sponsor will submit a Corrective Action Plan and coordinate with the USACE until
Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan
Page 21 January 2019

authorization is secured to conduct the adaptive management activities. The Bank Sponsor is
responsible for funding and/or providing the services necessary to secure any necessary permits to
support the proposed major remedial adaptive management actions, to implement the corrective action
plan, and to deliver record drawings that depict the extent and nature of the work performed. If the
USACE determines that the Bank is not meeting performance standards or the Sponsor is not complying
with the terms of the instrument, the USACE may take appropriate actions, including but not limited to:
suspending credit sales, utilizing financial assurances, and/or terminating the instrument.
J Financial Assurances
Financial assurances will be provided in the form of insurance for the activities specified in this plan. The
insurance will assure performance of construction and monitoring work to restore, enhance and/or
preserve the project aquatic resources. The principal amount of the insurance will be based on Table 20
below.
Wildlands Holdings VI, LLC will serve as the Principal and Nautilus Insurance Company will serve as the
Surety. In the event that the Nautilus fails to meet the conditions of the insurance obligation, the surety
may fulfill the principal's obligations either by performing those obligations up to the limit of the penal
sum, or by paying an amount up to the penal sum (less any costs already incurred by the surety) into a
standby trust or to a willing party acceptable to the USACE, who would develop a proposal to fulfill the
mitigation obligations. The insurance will stipulate that any insurance payouts be made payable to an
established third party. Unique Places to Save (UP2Save) is to serve as the third party for this Mitigation
Bank. At such time as funds are distributed to UP2Save, they will become a surety to the insurance.
Financial assurances will not be structured to provide funds to the USACE in the event of default by the
Principal (Sponsor). The USACE will be notified a minimum of 120 days prior to termination of financial
assurances. A letter from UP2Save acknowledging their third -party status is located in Appendix 8.
Insurance will be phased to allow coverage through the monitoring period. Insurance covering
construction will be provided after the MBI is approved and prior to the initial credit release. The
casualty insurance will be retired upon submittal of the final as -built report to the DE. The initial term of
the insurance policy will be 15 months and will include an option to renew the policy for a term not to
exceed one year to cover site construction. The principal amount of the construction insurance will be
calculated based on the remaining cost to complete engineering, permitting, and construction activities
as described in Table 20. Note, the cost of recording easements will not be included in the construction
insurance as this process will be complete at the time the insurance is submitted to the USACE.
Following retirement of the construction insurance, insurance for annual monitoring will be utilized to
cover anticipated monitoring and adaptive management costs. Insurance will be structured to provide
continuous coverage through a single policy that will decrement in value each year according to Table
20. Annual monitoring insurance will be submitted to the USACE upon approval of each previous year
monitoring report. The principal amount of monitoring insurance is calculated based on the total
estimated costs that remains through closeout, including monitoring and maintenance activities. Table
20 lists the proposed insurance principal amounts for each monitoring year.

Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
® There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate
and reliable. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated 8/7/2019. Therefore
this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory
mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other resource protection
measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all waters and wetlands that would be affected in any
way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an
appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may
request an approved JD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
❑ There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403).
However, since the waters, including wetlands have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination
may not be used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is
merely an effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters, including wetlands at the project area, which
is not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the waters,
including wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland
delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
❑ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described project area/property subject to the permit
requirements of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for
a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are waters, including wetlandson the above described project area/property subject to the permit requirements of Section
404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ We recommend you have the waters, including wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be
able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.

SAW-2018-02160
❑ The waters, including wetlands on your project area/property have been delineated and the delineation has been verified by
the Corps. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated DATE. We strongly
suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once
verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA jurisdiction on your property which, provided
there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years.
❑ The waters, including wetlands have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed by the
Corps Regulatory Official identified below onDATE. Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area/property which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at [phone] to determine their
requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or
placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If you have any questions
regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Emily Greer at 910.251.4567 or

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review
area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an
approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an informed decision after having discussed the
various types of JDs and their characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General
Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre- construction notification" (PCN), or
requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has
not requested an AJD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit
applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an official
determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the option to request an AJD
before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit
authorization on an AJD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or
different special conditions; (3) the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than
accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant
can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that
permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5)

undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an AID
constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g.,
signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps
permit authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the review area
affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and waives any challenge to such
jurisdiction in any administrative orjudicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any
administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an AID
or a PJD, the JD will be processed as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual
permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be
administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over
aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic
resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is
practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be"
navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the
review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:

Evidence of stressors affecting the assessment area (may not be within the assessment area)
Please circle and/or make note on the last page if evidence of stressors is apparent. Consider departure from reference, if appropriate, in
recent past (for instance, within 10 years). Noteworthy stressors include, but are not limited to the following.
• Hydrological modifications (examples: ditches, dams, beaver dams, dikes, berms, ponds, etc.)
• Surface and sub -surface discharges into the wetland (examples: discharges containing obvious pollutants, presence of nearby septic
tanks, underground storage tanks (USTs), hog lagoons, etc.)
• Signs of vegetation stress (examples: vegetation mortality, insect damage, disease, storm damage, salt intrusion, etc.)
• Habitat/plant community alteration (examples: mowing, clear -cutting, exotics, etc.)
Is the assessment area intensively managed? ❑ Yes ® No
Regulatory Considerations - Were regulatory considerations evaluated? ®Yes ❑No If Yes, check all that apply to the assessment area.
❑ Anadromous fish

❑ Designated NCNHP reference community
❑ Abuts a 303(d)-listed stream or a tributary to a 303(d)-listed stream
What type of natural stream is associated with the wetland, if any? (check all that apply)
® Blackwater
❑ Brownwater
❑ Tidal (if tidal, check one of the following boxes) ❑ Lunar ❑ Wind ❑ Both
Is the assessment area on a coastal island? ❑ Yes ® No
Is the assessment area's surface water storage capacity or duration substantially altered by beaver? ❑ Yes ® No
Does the assessment area experience overbank flooding during normal rainfall conditions? ❑ Yes ® No
1. Ground Surface Condition/Vegetation Condition —assessment area condition metric
Check a box in each column. Consider alteration to the ground surface (GS) in the assessment area and vegetation structure (VS) in the
assessment area. Compare to reference wetland if applicable (see User Manual). If a reference is not applicable, then rate the assessment
area based on evidence an effect.
GS VS
®A ®A Not severely altered
❑B ❑B Severely altered over a majority of the assessment area (ground surface alteration examples: vehicle tracks, excessive
sedimentation, fire -plow lanes, skidder tracks, bedding, fill, soil compaction, obvious pollutants) (vegetation structure
alteration examples: mechanical disturbance, herbicides, salt intrusion [where appropriate], exotic species, grazing, less
diversity [if appropriate], hydrologic alteration)
Surface and Sub -Surface Storage Capacity and Duration — assessment area condition metric
Check a box in each column. Consider surface storage capacity and duration (Surf) and sub -surface storage capacity and duration (Sub).
Consider both increase and decrease in hydrology. A ditch <_ 1 foot deep is considered to affect surface water only, while a ditch > 1 foot
deep is expected to affect both surface and sub -surface water. Consider tidal flooding regime, if applicable.
Surf Sub
❑A ❑A Water storage capacity and duration are not altered.
❑B ❑B Water storage capacity or duration are altered, but not substantially (typically, not sufficient to change vegetation).
®C ®C Water storage capacity or duration are substantially altered (typically, alteration sufficient to result in vegetation change)
(examples: draining, flooding, soil compaction, filling, excessive sedimentation, underground utility lines).
Water Storage/Surface Relief — assessment area/wetland type condition metric (skip for all marshes)
Check a box in each column. Select the appropriate storage for the assessment area (AA) and the wetland type (WT).
AA WT
3a. ❑A ❑A Majority of wetland with depressions able to pond water > 1 deep
❑B ❑B Majority of wetland with depressions able to pond water 6 inches to 1 foot deep
❑C ®C Majority of wetland with depressions able to pond water 3 to 6 inches deep
®D ❑D Depressions able to pond water < 3 inches deep
3b. ❑A Evidence that maximum depth of inundation is greater than 2 feet
❑B Evidence that maximum depth of inundation is between 1 and 2 feet
®C Evidence that maximum depth of inundation is less than 1 foot

4. Soil Texture/Structure — assessment area condition metric (skip for all marshes)
Check a box from each of the three soil property groups below. Dig soil profile in the dominant assessment area landscape feature.
Make soil observations within the top 12 inches. Use most recent National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils guidance for regional
indicators.
4a. ❑A Sandy soil
®B Loamy or clayey soils exhibiting redoximorphic features (concentrations, depletions, or rhizospheres)
❑C Loamy or clayey soils not exhibiting redoximorphic features
❑D Loamy or clayey gleyed soil
❑E Histosol or histic epipedon
4b. ❑A Soil ribbon < 1 inch
®B Soil ribbon >_ 1 inch
4c. ®A No peat or muck presence
❑B A peat or muck presence
Discharge into Wetland — opportunity metric
Check a box in each column. Consider surface pollutants or discharges (Surf) and sub -surface pollutants or discharges (Sub). Examples
of sub -surface discharges include presence of nearby septic tank, underground storage tank (UST), etc.
Surf Sub
®A ®A Little or no evidence of pollutants or discharges entering the assessment area
❑B ❑B Noticeable evidence of pollutants or discharges entering the wetland and stressing, but not overwhelming the
treatment capacity of the assessment area
❑C ❑C Noticeable evidence of pollutants or discharges (pathogen, particulate, or soluble) entering the assessment area and
potentially overwhelming the treatment capacity of the wetland (water discoloration, dead vegetation, excessive
sedimentation, odor)
Land Use — opportunity metric (skip for non -riparian wetlands)
Check all that apply (at least one box in each column). Evaluation involves a GIS effort with field adjustment. Consider sources draining
to assessment area within entire upstream watershed (WS), within 5 miles and within the watershed draining to the assessment area (5M),
and within 2 miles and within the watershed draining to the assessment area (2M).

Subject: Dudley Pond GSA
Morning John,
I think the approach that we will be taking for the Dudley Pond GSA is to include the (2) proposed additional 12-Digit
HUCs (in the Riegelwood/Delco area), but exclude the Cape Fear 04 8-digit HUC altogether. The NCIRT will be discussing
the GSA for this HUC, as well as others, in the near future. When that decision is finalized, I will pass that information to
you. So for now, we are accepting the (2) 12-digit HUCs for Dudley Pond, but not the entire Cape Fear 05 and not any of
the Cape Fear 04. I would expect that the GSA issue for all the HUCs in NC will be settled by the time you complete the
mitigation plan.
Call if you have any further questions,

Attn: Mr. Shawn Wilkerson
1430 South Mint Street, Suite 104
Charlotte, North Carolina 28203
Dear Mr, Wilkerson:
This letter confirms the initial Interagency Review Team's (IRT) evaluation and
comments received during the November 21, 2018 Public Notice of your prospectus
detailing the proposed establishment of a mitigation bank, known as Wildlands Cape
Fear 05 Umbrella Mitigation Bank (Bank), within an approximately 42-acre tract referred
to as Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site. The tract is located northwest of Stedman Cedar
Creek Rd & John Hall Rd intersection, approximately 0.7 mile northeast of NC Hwy 53,
adjacent to & encompassing Cedar Creek and Dudley Pond, near Cedar Creek
Community, south of Fayetteville, Cumberland County, North Carolina. Also, please
reference our December 14, 2018 onsite meeting with attendees: Mr. John Hutton of
Wildlands Engineers, Mr. Mac Haupt of North Carolina (NC) Division of Water
Resources, and Mr. Todd Tugwell of our office.
Pursuant to 33 CFR Part 332.8(d)(5) Compensatory Mitigation For Losses of Aquatic
Resources, our office is providing our initial evaluation as to the potential of your
proposed Bank for providing appropriate compensatory mitigation for activities
authorized by Department of the Army (DA) permits_ Comments (copies enclosed)
were received from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, NC State Historic Preservation
Office, and Cherokee Nation Tribal Historic Preservation Office during the commenting
period of the Public Notice. Based on our review, coordination with the IRT, and the
onsite inspection, it is our position that the proposed Bank has potential for
appropriately providing compensatory mitigation for DA authorizations. Consequently,
our office confirms proceeding with the development of a mitigation plan and the
Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI). This mitigation plan and MBI must be approved
prior to the release of any credits.
With respect to the development of the mitigation plan, several of the following items
of the bank proposal were discussed during the December 14th onsite meeting. First,
the proposed GSA is the entire 03030005 Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) of the Cape
Fear River Basin. It was brought to your attention that the lower end of this HUC

(vicinity of New Hanover/Columbus/Pender County lines intersection) has been
historically excluded from GSA limits of several existing banks located in the upper part
of the HUC. In a subsequent email, you requested the addition of the 12-Digit RUCs
030300050405 and 030300050303 to coincide with the NC Department of
Transportation's Request for Proposal for potential mitigation needs. Upon review of
the information, our office agrees to extend the GSA to include these two 12-Digit
RUCs. The expansion of the GSA to encompass the entire lower end of the 03030005
remains a discussion within the NC IRT and plans are to finalize the GSA in this, and
other, HUCs in the near future. At this time, it is advisable for your planning purposes to
presume that the lower end of the 8-digit HUC will continue to be excluded from your
Bank's GSA until a final determination is made.
Other meeting topics of discussion were the inclusion of potential wetland credits,
the need to conduct a full assessment of the stream (i.e. historic location and condition,
channel dimensions, sediment accumulation in the floodplain), addressing existing
constraints (i.e. beaver activity, powerline, gas line, adjacent upstream pond), the need
for mapping soil types, identifying reference sites, vegetative plantings specific for
Dudley Mill Pond and the use of reference target communities, wetland impact
considerations during the development of stream design for the upper forested reach of
Cedar Creek, justification of ratios and thoroughly documenting projected ecological
uplift, and the inclusion of NCSAM and NCWAM functional assessment forms and
locations.
Other components were also covered during the meeting and all discussed topics
should be considered and incorporated in your bank planning and development of the
mitigation plan. Also, please use the October 24, 2016 version of the Wilmington
District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update guidance in the
preparation of the plan.
If you have any questions regarding the banking process or moving forward with the
establishment of your proposal, please do not hesitate to contact me at the Wilmington
Regulatory Field Office, telephone [phone] or [e-mail].

Re: Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation Site / SAW-2016-02160/ Cumberland County
Dear Mr. Sugg;
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the Dudley Mill Pond Mitigation project
advertised in the November 21, 2018 Public Notice. The project includes proposed restoration of
7,324 linear feet (if) of Cedar Creek, including reaches formerly impounded by Dudley Mill Pond.
The Service currently has no.objections or significant comments to the project. We note that the
U.S. Army Corps, of Engineers (Corps) has made a determination of "no effect" for federally -listed
species. However, the prospectus states that the project area will be assessed for individual species
and/or suitable habitat for federally -listed species during preparation of the mitigation plan, and
that the Service will be consulted if any suitable habitat and/or individually federally listed species
are identified in the project area. Therefore, the Service will reserve our concurrence with the Corps
determination until we have had the opportunity to review the mitigation plan.
The Service appreciates the opportunity to review and provide comments on the proposed action,
Should you have any questions regarding the project, please contact Kathy Matthews at [phone],
extension 27.

Appendix 6
Maintenance Plan

Maintenance Plan
The site shall be monitored on a regular basis and a physical inspection of the site shall be conducted a
minimum of once per year throughout the post -construction monitoring period until performance
standards are met. These site inspections may identify site components and features that require
routine maintenance. Routine maintenance should be expected most often in the first two (2) years
following site construction and may include the following:
Tablel: Maintenance Plan
Component/Feature
Maintenance through project close-out
Routine channel maintenance and repair activities may include chinking of in -stream
structures to prevent piping, securing of loose coir matting, and supplemental
Stream
installations of live stakes and other target vegetation along the channel. Areas where
storm water and floodplain flows intercept the channel may also require maintenance to
prevent bank erosion. Beaver dams that inundate the stream channels shall be removed
and the beaver shall be trapped.
Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted
community. Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include
Vegetation
supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. Exotic invasive plant species
shall be controlled by mechanical and/or chemical methods. Any vegetation control
requiring herbicide application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of
Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations.
Site boundaries shall be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction between the
mitigation site and adjacent properties. Boundaries may be identified by fence, marker,
Site boundary
bollard, post, tree -blazing, or other means as allowed by site conditions and/or
conservation easement. Boundary markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be
repaired and/or replaced on an as -needed basis.

Credit Release Schedule

1.0 Credit Release Schedule
All credit releases will be based on the total credit generated as reported by the as -built survey of the
mitigation site. Under no circumstances shall any mitigation project be debited until the necessary DA
authorization has been received for its construction or the District Engineer (DE) has otherwise provided
written approval for the project in the case where no DA authorization is required for construction of
the mitigation project. The DE, in consultation with the Interagency Review Team (IRT), will determine if
performance standards have been satisfied sufficiently to meet the requirements of the release
schedules below. In cases where some performance standards have not been met, credits may still be
released depending on the specifics of the case. Monitoring may be required to restart or be extended,
depending on the extent to which the site fails to meet the specified performance standard. The release
of project credits will be subject to the criteria described as follows:

. 10% of credits will be reserved for the site that can be subsequently released after four bankfull events have
occurred in separate monitoring years, provided that the channel is stable and all other performance standards are
being met.
1.1 Initial Allocation of Released Credits
The initial allocation of released credits is defined as Bank Establishment in the 2013 Wilmington District
credit release schedule guidance document. The initial allocation can be released without prior written
approval of the DE upon satisfactory completion of the following activities:
a. Execution of the UMBI by the Sponsor and the USACE
b. Approval of the Final Mitigation Plan
c. Recordation of the conservation easement, as well as delivery of a title opinion that is
acceptable to the USACE.
d. Delivery of the financial assurances described in the Mitigation Plan.
e. 404 permit verification for construction of the site, if required.
1.2 Subsequent Credit Releases
All subsequent credit releases must be approved by the DE, in consultation with the IRT, based on a
determination that required performance standards have been achieved. For stream projects, a reserve
of 10% of a site's total stream credits shall be released after four bankfull events have occurred in separate
years, provided the channel is stable and all other performance standards are met. In the event that less
than four bankfull events occur during the monitoring period, release of these reserve credits shall be at
the discretion of the IRT. As projects approach milestones associated with the credit release, Wildlands
will submit a request for credit release to the DE along with documentation substantiating achievement
of criteria required for release to occur. This documentation will be included with the annual monitoring
report.

Charlotte, NC
Dear Ms. Eckardt,
This letter is to confirm that Unique Places to Save, a 501(c)3 not -for -profit organization located in North
Carolina is willing to act as the responsible party to accept funds from either performance/monitoring bonds
or casualty insurance and successfully complete the Cape Fear 05 Umbrella Mitigation Bank - Dudley Mill
Pond Mitigation Site ("Mitigation Project") in the event that Wildlands Engineering fails to perform or no
longer exists,
As the long-term easement holder and manager of the perpetual conservation easement associated with the
Mitigation Project, we are a logical consideration for this role.
We also understand that Unique Places to Save has the right and opportunity to review the bond/insurance
amount and level of responsibility and work to be completed on the Mitigation Project prior to accepting the
funds or completing any work on the Mitigation Project. After this review, Unique Places To Save has the
right to accept or deny the funds and subsequent mitigation responsibilities,
This role in no way affects our ability to monitor, steward and legally defend the perpetual conservation
easement associated with the Mitigation Project.
Sincerely,
