Watershed Planning Summary
The Beaver Creek stream restoration project is located within HUC 03040101090030, the Middle Fisher River watershed,
which is listed as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW) in the 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin Restoration
Priorities (RBRP) plan. Currently, the Beaver Creek stream restoration project is the only DMS project in this TLW.
The 2009 RBRP notes sedimentation and storm water runoff as major contributors to aquatic habitat degradation within
HUC 03040101. The lack of riparian buffers further exacerbates the habitat and water quality impacts within the
watershed.
The goals of the Beaver Creek project are consistent with watershed plan priorities. Establishment of a riparian buffer
and reconnection of the stream to the floodplain increase stream stability and improved nutrient filtration capacity, thereby
reducing sediment and pollutant inputs and contributing to aquatic habitat improvements within impaired and impacted
waters within the Upper Yadkin.
Proiect Setting and Background Summary
In 2002, the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program (WRP) restored 4,670 linear feet of Beaver Creek, a Tributary
to Fisher River in Surry County, NC. The 5.9-mi2 project watershed is located within US Geological Survey Hydrologic
Unit 03040101 (NC Division of Water Resources Sub -basin 12-63-12) of the Yadkin River Basin. The site was first
identified by the Surry County Soil and Water Conservation District as a potential restoration site after landowners
complained about active erosion adjacent to the stream. The project is located entirely within undeveloped, agricultural
land, but significant land clearing has occurred in the watershed over the projects history. Due to the long duration of this
project, there have been multiple monitoring providers and a number of years where monitoring did not occur. The project
monitoring history is summarized in the table below, and further described to clarify the extended history on this 15-year
old project.

The project consisted of restoring 4,670 linear foot of channelized rural stream and converting it into 4,266 linear feet of
Priorities I and II stream restoration. The initial restoration in 2002 consisted of of 28 cross -vanes, 50 root wads, 10 j-hook
vanes, and 6 double wing deflectors. Significant storm damage in early 2003, just following initial construction,
necessitated structural repairs performed in fall 2003 and planting over the winter. Monitoring therefore began in 2004.
Following two years of monitoring data collection, additional repair work was warranted which was implemented in 2008.
Following MY03 /2008, significant storm damage was discovered in June 2009 during a site visit by DMS staff.
Significant quantities of fine sediment (sand, silt, clay) had recently deposited along the channel bed, banks, and
floodplain. In addition there was newly formed bank erosion and some structural failure. It was clear that the project had
experienced at least one significant flood event, and perhaps more than one. Additionally, significant logging had
occurred on the hillslopes that bordered the easement and other locations in the watershed around this time, which
contributed to the large influx of sediment. Given the dynamic nature of the watershed, the project was then subject to
passive visual monitoring for several years by DMS to observe any additional developments before settling on a final
repair approach. The channel was developing the cross section that was apparently necessary given the hydrology and
sediment supply, but the areas that had repeatedly failed in the past were again worsening. These were areas that seemed
to have problematic pattern geometry. These areas were the subject of the 2014 repair.
The 2014 repairs focused on building stable banks using vegetated soil lifts, alleviating near bank stress, and repairing and
adapting damaged in -stream structures to become functional again. Four specific areas were targeted in these repairs with
the goal of providing a stable stream channel, providing the stream with a floodplain at its current elevation, and
improving aquatic and wildlife habitat. Two critical repair areas include: (1) the top of the site, where an outer bank was
eroding and threatening to connect to an open oxbow that was created when a portion of the pre -construction channel was
left open for habitat, and (2) the bottom of the site where complex interactions with backwater from the Fisher River had
caused a myriad of issues where the dimension and profile were in flux. Since the completion of these repairs, all four
areas have remained stable even when challenged with some significant floods - see appendix D. The 2008 and 2014
repairs are shown in Figure 4 (Remediation map).
The project was originally surveyed for monitoring in 2004 by North Carolina State Biological and Agricultural
Engineering (Dan Clinton). No longitudinal profile was surveyed at this time, but seven cross -sections were installed on
the site. Because of the repair work that occurred in 2014, the right bank pins of cross -sections 3, and 4 were reinstalled in
July 2015 during the fourth year monitoring. An effort was made to install these as close to the original cross -sections as
possible, but there are alignment differences between the MY03 and MY04 cross-section data for these cross -sections.
The stream has experienced numerous over -bank events since construction and stream geomorphology has remained

stable since the 2014 repairs.
June 2009 Photos
Regarding vegetation monitoring with the various contractors through the project history, during the first year of
monitoring (2004) four circular vegetation plots were established onsite. The following year (2005) fourteen new
vegetation plots were established and permanently marked in the field. After repairs occurred in summer 2008, during
which many of the plots were affected by construction, five plots were chosen to represent about 2% of the 6-acre planted
area per CVS methodology. These included VP11, VP10, VP12, VP4, and VP15 beginning in 2008 (MY03). These plots
were monitored again in 2015 and 2016, the fourth and fifth years of measured monitoring. As a result of the repair work
performed in 2014, Plots 10 and 15 were reinstalled during the fourth year monitoring in their approximate original
locations.
The site is well vegetated with many mature trees throughout the easement. Several of the vegetation plots show planted
woody stem densities below the success criteria. Due to the changes in vegetation monitoring and the additional
maintenance and planting over the years, it is possible that some of the plants counted as volunteers are actually planted
stems. This data does not reflect the overall condition of the riparian buffer, which appears to have a healthy vegetative
community composed of trees, shrubs, planted stems, and volunteers. In an effort to provide additional information on
vegetative success, supplemental plot counts were performed in April 2017 and focused on selected areas of prior repair
work (primarily 2008 and 2014), to provide an estimate of planted densities in and around previously disturbed areas
outside of existing plots. Appendix D shows this data where stem counts were well above MY5 criteria.
The conservation easements with landowners on this project are held in perpetuity by the Surry County Soil and Water
Conservation District (SWCD), and closed in early 2002. The conservation easement specifies a width of 64 feet on each
side of the stream centerline with the first 25 feet from the top of bank being maintained in a forested state. The
remaining easement width can be maintained in keeping with agricultural practices, but cannot be developed. An
allowances were made for a pre-exisitng farm road in this outer zone, but cannot be enlarged. The site will be transferred
to and stewarded by the Surry SWCD.
Goals and Obiectives:
In accordance with the 2001 Restoration Plan, the project has the following goals and objectives:
• Restore 4,620 linear feet of Beaver Creek (as measured along the thalweg).
• Provide a stable stream channel that neither aggrades nor degrades while maintaining its dimension, pattern, and
profile with the capacity to transport its watershed's water and sediment load.
• Improve water quality and reduce further property loss by stabilizing eroding stream banks.
• Reconnect the stream to its floodplain or establish a new floodplain at a lower elevation.
• Improve aquatic habitat with the use of natural material stabilization structures such as root wads, rock vanes, woody
debris, and establish a riparian buffer.
• Provide aesthetic value, wildlife habitat, and bank stability through the creation or enhancement of a riparian zone.

Success Criteria
The 2001 Restoration Plan pre -dated the 2003 Stream Mitigation Guidelines and, while a typical range of performance
criteria across projects in general were discussed, the report did not define project -specific success criteria. Therefore the
following success criteria were stated as part of the February 2003 as -built baseline report:

* MY01 vegetation monitoring was conducted by a different methodology using different plots and is not comparable to later data.
** It is unclear whether the vegetation monitoring in MY02 included only planted or total stems. The monitoring report for MY02 does
not include data for Plot 15.
NOTE - Plot 15 has 0 planted stems within the plot. This is not due to a lack of planted stems in this area of the project but rather the
placement of the plot. There are many mature woody stems located just outside the bounds of the plot.

Recommendation and Conclusion
The Beaver Creek Stream Restoration Site is has developed into a stable, well vegetated, stream restoration project. There
were no areas of severe erosion noted during the MY-05 end of year site walk and the site has remained stable since the
2014 repair. There are minor, localized areas of scour within tolerance for a project of this drainage area and magnitude.
Based on the five monitoring plots, the fifth -year monitoring counted an average of 324 planted stems/acre across the site.
Plots 4, 12, and 15 have a planted stem density less than the year five success criteria of 320 stems/acre. This is largely
due to the lack of stems identifiable as planted and not a lack of desirable woody stems growing on the site. The site's
average stem density including volunteers is 1,611 stems/acre. There are many large, mature trees growing within the site.
Overall the site is stable, well vegetated and stream functional measures are performing well.
The stream and the site's vegetation condition indicate that it is on a path to success. DMS recommends that this site be
closed out with the 4,246 SMU requested credits.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Monte Matthews, USACOE
Raleigh Regulatory Field Office p�{'-J
FROM: Ron Linville, Regional Coordinator /
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: February 18, 2008
SUBJECT: Beaver Creek Stream Repair Project, Surry County
Baker Engineering is proposing to restore portions of the referenced stream. Public funding is
being provided by the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program. Biologists with the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) are familiar with habitat values in the area. These
comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination
Act (48 Star. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North Carolina Environmental
Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25).
file project is being accomplished in conjunction with Surry Soil & Water to repair storm
damage. the restoration or repair project will include 4,210 linear feet of stream. The goal of
the project is to restore stable stream and streambed by naturally stabilizing the channel,
providing improved aquatic habitats and vegetated buffers. NCWRC fish biologist (Kevin
alining) surveyed the stream on June 14, 2001. At that time, twelve species of warm water fish
species were observed_ When the project is completed, NCWRC fish biologists are planning
additional surveys in cooperation with Surry County Soil and Water to determine if aquatic
habitat values and aquatic species diversity have been improved.
Based on our review of the project, we will not object to the project as proposed. We
recommend that only natural fiber matting be used for the project as these materials decay
quickly and do not tend to entrap small animals as does plastic matting. Surry Soil & Water
should contact Mr. Hitting at 336-818-0283 upon project completion to schedule this additional
survey work.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project during the early planning
stages. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336-769-9453.

Appendix D: Additional Data
In an effort to provide additional information on vegetative success, plot counts were performed in April 2017 and
focused on selected areas of prior repair work (primarily 2008 and 2014), to provide an estimate of planted densities in
and around previously disturbed areas outside of existing plots. While precise differentiation between planted stems
and native recruits was not possible, obvious numerous smaller volunteers were omitted from the counts. SEE MAP

Beaver Creek Flood History and Overbank Events
Five USGS gages and 4 additional State Climate Office precipitation gauges surrounding Beaver Creek were utilized in
concert with onsite observations to characterize the overbank and flood history for Beaver Creek since its construction
in 2002. The table, map, and photos in appendix D below provide the relevant information. It is estimated based on the
onsite observations and the gauge data (flow and precipitation return intervals) that the site experienced 37 events
capable of performing geomorphologic work, with 25 of those potentially being overbank events. Of those 25, 11 were
further documented though photos collected onsite. Six events were noted since the repairs in 2014, 3 of which were
likely overbank with an onsite observation on 2/24/2016 (photos 21 and 22). These photos show alluvium deposits on
top of the soil lifts that were part of the 2014 repairs in areas subject to repeated repairs in the past. These areas
demonstrated stability even after exposure to these events. One event on 8/4/2016 was particularly large with return
intervals for precipitation at Dobson and Mount Airy of 7 years and 10 years, respectively with approximately a Q60
observed at the Ararat USGS gauge.
