P and U Lands Restoration Site - Phase 2 iii PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. First Annual Report June 2014 1.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW 1.1 History. The approximately 3,667 -acre P and U Lands restoration site is part of the PCS Phosphate Company Inc.'s (PCS) compensatory mitigation to offset unavoidable impacts to wetlands and waters authorized under United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Action ID: 200110096 and North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Water Quality Certification (WQC) #2008-0868 version 2.0. As described in the mitigation plan prepared for the pre -construction notification (PCN) to the USACE (CZR 2012), the site was planned to be constructed in three phases as shown on Figure 1. This annual report concerns first annual monitoring of the 796 acres of Phase 2 of the P Lands portion, conducted by CZR Incorporated (CZR) of Wilmington, NC. (The P and U designation have no special meaning other than that was the historic label given to PCS and Weyerhaeuser properties with similar ownership agreements.) The design team consisted of Jonathan T. Ricketts, Inc. of Palm Beach Gardens, FL, the restoration design engineer, PCS, and CZR. Earthwork was performed by Sawyer's Land Developing, Inc. out of Belhaven, NC and supervised by the design team. Phase 1 and 2 restoration activities occurred September 2011 -March 2013. Phase 2 construction was authorized by five NC Division of Land Resources Erosion and Sediment Control permits for land clearing which were subsequently modified for the construction of the interior ditch plugs and perimeter berms and ditches. Planting of Phase 2 occurred March 2013. Further details of construction are included in the As Built Report for P and U Lands Phase 2 (CZR 2014). The P and U Lands site is a key component linking PCS Phosphate Company, Inc.'s (PCS) Parker Farm Mitigation Site, Bay City Farm Mitigation Site, Gum Run Mitigation Site, and the South Creek Corridor into a large and varied collection of restored wetland and preserved natural areas (South Creek Corridor Complex). The headwaters and upper valley of historic Gum Swamp Run, a tributary to South Creek, will also be restored as part of the P and U Lands mitigation site, Phase 3. Unlike most other PCS mitigation sites, the P and U Lands are not prior - converted agricultural fields. Other than the existing roads, all of Phase 2 acreage in which earthwork occurred was in some stage of silvicultural activity, usually various -aged pine stands, and contained regularly spaced ditches (deeper than the agricultural ditches on other restoration sites that were filled in as part of restoration work) and the bedding common to pine plantations. The removal of all standing timber and stumps and post-harvest debris presented particular challenges as the organic soils precluded safe burning of the timber slash on site. 1.2 Location. The P and U Lands site is located east and west of Bay City Road (SR1002), approximately 4.5 miles southeast of Aurora, Richland Township, North Carolina. Bay City Road runs through the P Lands portion of the site, which is bounded on the east by SR1918 (Peele Road is the unpaved extension of SR 1918) and on the south by "County Line Road" (a gated gravel road that functions as the Beaufort/Pamlico County border). The U Lands portion of the site lies west and southwest of Bay City Farm (the western portion of the P Lands site referred to as the "panhandle" separates Bay City Farm from the U Lands site). South Creek and the South Creek Canal form the northern and northwestern boundaries, Bonner/Rodman Road forms the western boundary, and the Pamlico/Beaufort County line forms the southern boundary of the U Lands (County Line Road itself is the southern boundary of only the eastern half of the U Lands as the western limit of County Line Road terminates at the midpoint of the south property line). The entire site is accessed via multiple gated roads along Bay City Road, Peele Road, County Line Road, and/or Jaime/Executive Road. The site is located within the Pamlico Hydrologic Unit 03020104 of the Tar -Pamlico River basin within the South Creek subbasin at latitude 35.233831 and longitude 76.775742. Portions of the site can be found on the USGS Aurora, Bayboro, South Creek, and Vandemere quadrangles (Figures 1 and 2). P and U Lands Restoration Site - Phase 2 1 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. First Annual Report June 2014 1.3 Goals and Performance Criteria. The primary goal of the entire project is to re- establish a self-sustaining functional wetland complex to allow surface flow to move through vegetated wetlands before reaching any stream. Mitigation yields are estimated and performance criteria are described for the project in detail in the Compensatory Mitigation Plan for P and U Lands Restoration Site (CZR 2012). Performance criteria for Phase 2 are summarized in Table 1. Over time the 796 -acre Phase 2 portion of the site is expected to successfully re-establish approximately: 40 wetland acres of headwater forest 562 wetland acres of non-riverine swamp forest, 135 wetland acres of hardwood flat forest, and 6 acres of open water in plugged ditches (interior field and along roads). The remaining 52 acres are comprised of existing roads, perimeter berm and ditch, roadside plugs, and parking lots. Approximately 9,062 linear feet of jurisdictional waters in roadside ditches (along Royal Road and the north side of Small Road) were plugged in order to increase the hydroperiods within the adjacent planted areas. 2.0 REQUIREMENTS 2.1 Normal Rainfall and Growing Season. A continuous electronic rain gauge on the adjacent Bay City Mitigation Site is downloaded once a month and its data are used in conjunction with data from nearby automated weather stations (e.g., NRCS WETS data from NOAA's site at Aurora and rain gauges at other nearby monitoring sites) to determine normal rainfall during the monitoring period. Bay City data were compared to the WETS range of normal precipitation to determine if Bay City rainfall was within the normal range. The range of normal precipitation for this report refers to the 30th and 70th percentile thresholds of the probability of having onsite rainfall amounts less than or higher than those thresholds. The range of normal and the 30 -day rolling total data lines begin on the last day of each month and the 2013 WETS - Aurora monthly precipitation total is plotted on the last day of each month. Under the 2010 regional guidance from the Corps of Engineers for wetland hydroperiods, the normal growing season for Beaufort County is 28 February to 6 December or 282 days (WETS table for Beaufort County first/last freeze date 28 degrees F 50 percent probability) (US Army Corps of Engineers 2010). At the suggestion of the Corps' Washington regulatory field office, data collected between 1 February and 27 February provide important information related to analyses of site hydrology during the early growing season, but are not part of the hydroperiod calculation for success. 2.2 Hydrology. Figure 2 depicts the locations of hydrology monitoring equipment, Figure 3 shows the locations on Beaufort County soil polygons, and Figure 4 shows monitoring locations on the as -built LiDAR. To document surface storage and hydroperiods of all wetland types on the site, 49 semi -continuous electronic LevelTroll water level monitoring wells (manufactured by InSitu) are deployed at a density of approximately 1 well/15 acres across all planted areas of Phase 2, with the exception of one well that was installed near a ditch to be used in conjunction with a nearby well to monitor lateral drainage effects from the open perimeter ditch. Exclosures constructed of barbed wire wrapped around metal fence posts were built around all wells to reduce likelihood of disturbance or equipment loss by black bears. Three wells were installed 13 March 2013 in a recently timbered tract west of Rodman Road in the Ponzer soil series as controls for the P and U Lands wells in the same soil type (Figures 1 and 3b). In late September 2013, an additional five wells were installed in Section I and J of the Parker Farm as controls for wells in the Wasda soil series (Figures 1 and 3b). P and U Lands Restoration Site Phase 2 2 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. First Annual Report June 2014 Electronic wells collect data every 1.5 hours, are downloaded once a month, and the data evaluated on an annual basis to document wetland hydroperiods. Wetland hydroperiods are calculated by counting consecutive days with water level no deeper than 12 inches below the soil surface during the growing season under normal or below normal rainfall conditions and then for all rainfall conditions. 2.3 Vegetation. The first annual survey of the 48 0.3 -acre planted tree and shrub monitoring plots occurred July -September 2013. The plots represent a two percent sample of the restoration area (Figure 2). 2.4 Photographic Documentation. Seven permanent photo point locations were established along the perimeter of the restoration area (Figure 2). The first annual photos were taken October 2013. 3.0 2013 RESULTS 3.1 Rainfall. Total rainfall in 2013 at Bay City was 43 inches, almost 6 inches less than last year. The 30 -day rolling total of 2013 Bay City rainfall was considered within WETS normal or below normal range for the entire year (Figure 5). There were a few brief periods of rainfall amounts greater than the 70th percentile but not long enough or high enough to be considered abnormal rainfall. The period of below normal rainfall from the end of March through April did not appear to affect very many wetland hydroperiod lengths, but the period from the end of May through part of June, might have caused water levels at several wells to drop below -12 inches, ending the continuous wetland hydroperiod. The US Drought Monitor (http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu) provides a synthesis of multiple indices and reflects the consensus of federal and academic scientists on regional conditions on a weekly basis (updated each Thursday). For North Carolina's Beaufort County in 2013, during the 41 -week long growing season, the monitor reported 13 weeks with drought status of abnormally dry (DO) for the vicinity of P Lands project area; the remainder of the growing season was normal. Eleven of those weeks included the last week of March through the first week of June and the last two weeks occurred during the first half of October. 3.2 Hydrology. The entire year was considered within WETS normal rainfall. Although short periods occurred either above or below the 30th or 70th percentiles, none were considered abnormal (Figure 5). All wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods (Table 2, Figure 6). Most wells recorded wetland hydroperiods frequently during the year and 11 wells recorded a continuous wetland hydroperiod for the entire growing season (Table 2). The two shortest wetland hydroperiods were 8 and 9 percent and the remainder were greater than 12.5 percent. One of those two is approximately 50 feet away from the toe of a berm surrounding a perimeter canal to monitor potential drainage effects. As evidenced by the cumulative days, many wells had water levels shallower than 12 inches below the surface in addition to the continuous hydroperiods (Table 2). Tables depicting 2013 daily well readings and rainfall are included on a companion CD with this report. Three wells were installed 13 March 2013 in a recently timbered tract west of Rodman Road in the Ponzer soil series as controls for the P and U Lands wells in the same soil. The wells recorded water levels similar to Phase 2 wells (Table 2). In late September 2013, an additional five wells were installed in Section I and J of the Parker Farm as controls for wells in the Wasda soil series (Figure x). Despite the exclosures, three of the wells were frequently destroyed by bears and so did not collect much data. The bear exclosures have been modified and reinforced to hopefully prevent further damage. 3.3 Vegetation. Using only the number of planted stems that were unquestionably alive in the monitoring plots, the most conservative estimate of survival is presented. Many stems P and U Lands Restoration Site Phase 2 3 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. First Annual Report June 2014 appeared dead or questionable, but based on prior monitoring experience, a stem needs to appear dead (or not be found) for two sampling events before it can be confidently counted as dead. Appendix A contains the number of stems that were alive in each plot for the fall 2013 survey. Overall survival of trees that were unquestionably alive in the 48 plots from the time of planting to the first annual fall survey was 91 percent, with a corresponding density of 317 trees per acre (Table 3). If trees with uncertain survival status (stem appeared dead but could not be confirmed) are included with trees that were definitely alive, survival increases to 100 percent (because a stem could not be considered dead the first year of surveying) and a density of 350 trees per acre. Excluding unknown species/uncertain survivals (and those with only a few stems), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia) had the lowest apparent survival (61 percent, Table 3). The 17 remaining known species had survivals of 85 percent and higher, with eight of them at 100 percent. Overall survival of shrubs that were unquestionably alive from the time of planting to the first annual fall survey was 98 percent with a corresponding density of 12 shrubs per acre (Table 3). If shrubs with uncertain survival status (stem appeared dead for the current sampling event but will not be confirmed until next fall) are included with shrubs that were definitely alive (less conservative estimate of survival), survival increases to 100 percent but due to the very few unsure stems that were added, density remains at 12 shrubs per acre. All eight species were surviving very well at the first annual survey (Table 3). Phase 2 is divided into three community types: headwater forest, non-riverine swamp forest, and hardwood flat. Survival of all zones was similar -78, 73, and 70 percent, respectively. After combining the trees, shrubs and unknown species that were definitely alive, density increases to 340 stems per acre and if stems with uncertain survival are added, the density increases to 460 stems per acre. The conservative current tree density is higher than the 260 stems required for success and with many different species of trees surviving well in the first year, there is a diverse assemblage of trees interspersed with a healthy shrub component. In many areas of the site, volunteer woody wetland stems (e.g. red bay [Persea borbonia], sweet bay [Magnolia virginiana]) are prolific and will enhance the diversity and density of the site. The volunteers will be counted in year five. 3.4 Photographic Documentation. A few photos representative of 2013 conditions are included with this report (Appendix B). More are available upon request. 4.0 SUMMARY According to WETS rainfall estimates, even though there were periods of drought and a few large rainfall events, 2013 rainfall was within normal range. All wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods regardless of rainfall conditions. Most wells recorded wetland hydroperiods frequently during the year. Overall survival of trees that were unquestionably alive in the 48 plots from the time of planting to the first annual fall survey was 91 percent, with a corresponding density of 317 trees per acre. Overall survival of shrubs that were unquestionably alive from the time of planting to the first annual fall survey was 98 percent with a corresponding density of 12 shrubs per acre. The current tree density is higher than the 260 stems required for success and with most tree species surviving well in the first year, there is a diverse assemblage of trees interspersed with a healthy shrub component. In many areas of the site, volunteer woody wetland stems (e.g. red bay, sweet bay [Magnolia virginiana], titi [Cyrilla racemiflora]) are prolific and will enhance the diversity and density of the site.
