RE: Response to Little Sebastian Mitigation Site Draft Mitigation Plan Comments
DMS Project ID No. 100027, Contract #7187
Paul Wiesner, NCDMS Comments:
General Comment: Please include the September 29, 2017 Post Contract IRT Meeting Minutes
in the appendices of the revised mitigation plan and confirm that the mitigation plan is consistent
with the meeting notes and IRT response e-mails (attached for reference).
Added September 29,2017 IRT meeting minutes to Appendix B and language to the mitigation plan
in Section 1.2 that the plan is consistent with the meeting notes and IRT response emails.
Executive Summary: Please reference the thermal regime. Please provide a brief introduction of
the Gideon site to describe the benefits such as easement continuity and riparian corridor.
Thermal regime cool added, along with a brief introduction of the Gideon site.
Section 1.2 - Project Outcomes: Edit the sentence "Due to its water classifications". The
proposed improvements may result in outcomes consistent with these water quality classifications
but the outcomes are not "due to" them.
Removed the first part of the sentence and changed to "Proposed improvements to the Project will
help meet the river basin needs... "
Section 1.2 - Project Outcomes: Stating the proposed improvements will meet the water quality
needs of the basin should be reworded unless the parameters are to be quantified.
Revised the wording
Section 2.1 - Site Selection: This section indicates that improvement and restoration of water
quality will be achieved. Edit this assertion or modify the monitoring plan to include water quality.
Edited the language about achieving goal 1; however, goal I is being addressed, just not
quantified.
Section 3.1- Watershed Summary Information -(Page 4): Land use comprises most of the text
under the drainage area subheading. Suggesting adding land use to the subheading.
This has been added to the subheading.

Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics: Please add a section for the site geology and provide
discussion.
This section has been added.
Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics -Existing Wetlands: DMS recommends contacting the
USACE and including the final PJD in the revised mitigation plan prior to the IRT mitigation plan
review.
The PJD is included in Appendix I.
Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics — Soil Survey: Please label the soil survey section
according to the entire discussion in the paragraph.
Moved ecoregion narrative to the beginning of the landscape characteristics, and the soil survey
section only discusses soil characteristics.
Section 3.3 - Land Use - Historic, Current, and Future: Land use discussion within the Gideon
site should be included in this section.
Added Gideon references along with the total protected area with both easements for the future
land use.
Section 5 - Mitigation Project Goals and Objectives: Project Goals - How is the improvement
of water quality/reducing sediment and nutrient loads, and increasing DO going to be measured
for success? Suggest clarifying this goal and tying it directly to an objective AND performance
criteria. Same comment for reduction in temperature.
This has been revised to reflect that our goals will indirectly support the goals of the RBRP to
improve water quality and reduce sediment and nutrient loads. This will not be a measurable
objective. Two additional goals have been added that are already tied to objectives: Improve
instream habitat, and restore and enhance native floodplain vegetation.
Section 5 - Mitigation Project Goals and Objectives: Project Objectives - What are the
appropriate pattern, dimension and profile? Is the intent to construct stream for a particular
discharge, or dominant discharge or bankfull discharge? Please clarify.
The objective has been reworded to: Design and reconstruct stream channels sized to convey
bankfull flows that will maintain a stable dimension, profile, and planform based on modeling,
watershed conditions, and reference reach conditions.
Section - 6.2 Design Parameters:
• Reach JN2-B: The text notes minimal grading and buffer reestablishment. Will any
structures be utilized/ installed in this Enhancement I reach? Yes, one log cross vane and
two log sills will be utilized. This has been added to the mitigation plan.
• Reach JN2-D: The channel appears to have been heavily modified/ditched. Is limited
grading the best approach for this reach? The minimal grading was a typo%arry over from
Reach JN2-C. Language in the mitigation plan has been updated to reflect that there is
some channel relocation, bed and bank stabilization, and removing an existing ford
crossing and access road. Also, a structure has been added on this reach on the design
plan set.
• Reach MCI -C: Please discuss the transition into the Gideon site. Does the proposed
treatment compliment both sites? The restoration continues into the Gideon site for another

1, 030 LF and will be a seamless transition. The Gideon site is beingpermitted concurrently
and will be constructed at the same time as Little Sebastian.
• USGS Regional Regression Equations: Please verify this equation is applicable/valid for
each of the drainage areas calculated. The equation is correct, but is not applicable to small
drainage areas. The table has been updated accordingly. The USGS Regional Regression
Equations are used in the process for verification that bankfull flows are appropriate.
• Section 5 indicates that two agricultural BMPs will be installed on the site (project
objectives). Please describe these and their proposed location in the Section 6.2 text. There
is only one BMP and the reference to two BMPs was a typo that carried over from the
proposal. The objectives have been reflected to show a single BMP. One BMP was
originally on Reach JN2-A, but per the IRT site visit notes, if the reach is intermittent the
BMP will not be constructed, rather the easement will be extended to provide preservation
to the origin point in the forested watershed. The JD determined the limits of the stream
preservation. The BMP will be installed at the top of Reach BSI -A, which already has the
conservation easement extended beyond the stream origin point. This BMP will be a dry
detention basin and has been added to the language in the mitigation plan for Reach BSI -
A.
Section 7.1 - Success Criteria: Specify which reaches will have transducers/ flow gauges
installed.
Added what reaches will have transducers/flow gauges: JN2-A and BSI -A.
Section 8.6 — Scheduling/ Reporting: "A mitigation plan and as -built drawings document.....";
this should be, "A Baseline Monitoring report and as -built drawings document.....". Please update
accordingly.
This has been fixed.
Table 16: The tree height success criteria in the table does not match what is reported in the text
(Section 7.2). Please update the table and QA/QC the table and report text to confirm they are
consistent.
The table has been updated to match the text — it had the Piedmont height criteria originally.
Figure 1 - Vicinity Map: This map appears to be a vicinity map for the Gideon site rather than
the Little Sebastian site. Please change the emphasis to highlight the active site.
This map has been revised to highlight the Little Sebastian site.
Figure 10A: Please update the title to "Little Sebastian Mitigation Site".
This map has been revised.
Figures 10A -10C: Section 5 indicates that two agricultural BMPs will be installed on the site
(project objectives). Please show the proposed BMPs on the conceptual maps.
This was a typo in Section S. Two BMPs were presented in the proposal, however since the entire
stream origin is being protected and the reach is intermittent, there will not be a BMP on Reach
JN2-A. One BMP is being installed on reach BSI -A even though this is a restoration reach and
the stream origin is being protected. Additionally, this has been added to the conceptual map and
design plans.

Appendices: Please check appendices for map order and labeling consistency.
The appendices and map order have been reviewed and revised as needed for map order and
labeling consistency
Preliminary Plan Set:
• Title Sheet — Please label the individual stream reaches. Done
• Sheet EI Construction Note 7 — Add that any compromised trees should be removed to the
note. Done
• Sheet E2 — Edit the linetype to emphasize the project conservation easement. Done
• Sheet S 1 — Add profile to include the proposed crossing. Done and now Sheet S2 and all
subsequent sheets will be number off because there is an additional sheet now.
• Sheet S 12 — Add profile if needed for the crossing. A profile is not needed for this ford
crossing, as there is no change in bed elevation.
• BMP Sheets - Add sheets detailing the proposed BMPs noted in Section 5 of the report text
and show their locations on the applicable plan sheets. The one BMP on BSI -A has been
added to Sheet S7 and Sheet D2 has the structure details.
• Sheet P 1: This appears to be the planting plan for the Gideon Mitigation Bank. Please
provide the planting plan for the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site. Please QA/QC the
document to confirm that other elements of the Gideon Mitigation Bank site MP have not
been included in the Little Sebastian Site MP. This was a mistake and we apologize. The
document has been QAIQCed for other Gideon elements.
• Sheet P I Planting Note I — Add language to the effect "and final approval has been issued"
to the end of the first sentence. Done
• Sheet M1 — The monitoring plan sheet is not consistent with what is proposed in Section
8 -Monitoring Plan (specifically the number of vegetation plots). Please QA/ QC the report
text and plan sheets to confirm that they are consistent. Consider moving the flow gauge
on Reach JN2 to the Enhancement I section rather than the preservation section. The
number of vegetation plots in Sheet MI has been updated to match the mitigation plan,
which is 8 plots. The plan set and mitigation plan are consistent. The flow gauge on Reach
JN2 should stay in the preservation section to document intermittent flow per the post -
contract IRT site visit.
• Sheet D3 Log Vane Plan View - Consider extending the stone backfill along the entire
length of the log into the streambank. Done
• Sheet D4 Double Log Drop Plan View - The contact "hinge" point between the two rows
of logs is prone to piping. Consider adding a note to not require contact at the hinge point
as directed by the engineer. We extended the filter fabric and stone backfill along both logs
(including the hinge point) in order to reduce the risk of piping.
• Structure Details — Please provide boulder size specifications everywhere applicable within
the plan sheets. Done, these are on Sheets S4, S5, and Sl 1, and D5. Rocks must have an
intermediate diameter of at least 24" for headers and 24-30" for footers. Sill rocks shall
have an intermediate diameter of at least 18". All rocks shall be approved by engineer
prior to installation. Width of header and footer rocks must be at least 36". Depth of header
and footer rocks must be at least 24".

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Little Sebastian Mitigation Site ("the Project") is located in Surry County, approximately 10 miles
north of Elkin. Water quality stressors currently affecting the Project include livestock production,
agricultural production, and lack of riparian buffer. The Project presents 8,120 linear feet (LF) of stream
restoration, enhancement, and preservation, generating 4,703 Cool Stream Mitigation Units (SMU )
along Mill Creek and three unnamed tributaries.
The Project is located in the Yadkin River Basin within Cataloging Unit 03040101, Target Local
Watershed (TLW) 03040101080020, and NCDWR sub -basin 03-04-01. The current State classification
for Mill Creek is Class C, Trout Waters Jr), and Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW) (NCDWQ
2011).
Consisting of agricultural fields, cattle pastures and wooded areas, the Project's total easement area is
approximately 22.26 acres within the overall drainage area of 3,261 acres. The Project has two separate
portions and in between those portions is the Gideon Mitigation Bank. While each site could be
developed independently of the other, the combined easements will result in a much larger contiguous
protected corridor and high quality aquatic habitat. The Gideon Mitigation Bank has a total easement
area that is approximately 11.45 ac and presents 4,818 linear feet of stream restoration, enhancement,
and preservation. Therefore, a total 33.71 ac and 12,938 LF of stream will be protected in perpetuity.
Grazing livestock have historically had access to all stream reaches within the Project. The lack of
riparian buffer vegetation, deep-rooted vegetation, and unstable channel characteristics have
contributed to the degradation of stream banks throughout the Project area.
Goals for the Project include an increase to hydrologic function and restoration to ecological function
within the existing stream and riparian corridor, and protect these features in perpetuity. These will be
accomplished by returning the existing streams into stable conditions by constructing an E/C type
stream with appropriate dimensions and pattern, reconnecting the channel to the floodplain, and
backfilling the abandoned channel. In -stream structures will be utilized for vertical stability and to
improve habitat. Buffer improvements will filter runoff from agricultural fields, thereby reducing
nutrient and sediment loads to the channel. Livestock exclusion fence will be installed along the
easement boundary. The widening and restoration of the riparian areas will also provide wildlife
corridors throughout the Project area. Benefits to be accrued from these activities include improved
water quality, and terrestrial and aquatic habitat.
The stream design approach for the Project is to combine the analog method of natural channel design
with analytical methods to evaluate stream flows and hydraulic performance of the channel and
floodplain. The analog method involves the use of a reference reach, or "template" stream, adjacent to,
nearby, or previously in the same location as the design reach. The template parameters of the analog
reach are replicated to create the features of the design reach. The analog approach is useful when
watershed and boundary conditions are similar between the design and analog reaches (Skidmore et al.,
2001). Hydraulic geometry is developed using analytical methods to identify the design discharge.
After completion of all construction and planting activities, the Project will be monitored on a regular
basis throughout the seven-year post -construction monitoring period, or until performance standards
are met. The Project will be transferred to the NCDEQ Stewardship Program. This party shall serve as
conservation easement holder and long-term steward for the property and will conduct periodic
inspection of the site to ensure that restrictions required in the conservation easement are upheld.
Funding will be supplied by the responsible party on a yearly basis until such time an endowment is
established.

I PROJECT INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Components
The Little Sebastian Mitigation Site ("Project") is located within a rural watershed in Surry County,
approximately 10 miles north of Elkin and seven miles west of Dobson. The Project lies within the
Yadkin River Basin, North Carolina Department of Water Resources (NCDWR) sub -basin 03-04-01
and United States Geological Survey (USGS) 14 -digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) 03040101080020
(Figure 1). The Project proposes to restore 2,724 linear feet (LF), enhance 3,916 LF, preserve 1,480
LF of stream, and provide water quality benefit for 22.26 acres of drainage area. The Project is in the
Northern Inner Piedmont Level IV ecoregion.
The Project is comprised of two easement locations (east and west) involving Mill Creek and three
unnamed tributaries, totaling 7,370 existing linear feet, which eventually drain into the Yadkin River.
The stream mitigation components are summarized in Table 1 and Figures 10a -c. The 11.45 -acre
Gideon Mitigation Bank is nestled between the east and west Project easements. Nine reaches are
accessible from Ed Nixon Road and nine reaches are accessible from Wild Wings Lane. Coordinates
for the Project are as follows: 36.397000, -80.859000.
1.2 Project Outcomes
The streams proposed for restoration have been significantly impacted by livestock production,
agricultural practices, and a lack of riparian buffer. Proposed improvements to the Project will help
meet the river basin needs expressed in the 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin Restoration
Priorities (RBRP) as well as ecological improvements to riparian corridor within the easement.
Through stream restoration, enhancement, and preservation, the Project presents 8,120 LF of proposed
stream, generating 4,703 Cool Stream Mitigation Units (SMU) (Table 1). This mitigation plan is
consistent with the September 29, 2017 Post Contract IRT Meeting Minutes and IRT response emails
(Appendix B).

2 WATERSHED APPROACH AND SITE SELECTION
The 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee RBRP identified several restoration needs for the entire Yadkin River
Basin, as well as for HUC 03040101. The Project watershed was identified as a Target Local Watershed
(TLW) (HUC 03040101080020, Middle Mitchell River TLW), a watershed that exhibits both the need
and opportunity for wetland, stream, and riparian buffer restoration. More specifically, goals outlined
in the 2009 RBRP for the watershed include:
1. Restoration of water quality and aquatic habitat in impaired stream segments;
2. Protection of high -resource value waters, including HQ W, OR W, and WSW designated waters
and those containing large numbers of rare and endangered species (NHEOs);
3. Continuation of existing watershed restoration and protection initiatives and projects,
including efforts funded by Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF), DWQ's 319
Program, NC EEP, Ag Cost Share Program (ACSP) and Community Conservation Assistance
Program (CLAP);
4. Collaborative efforts with local resource agencies, land trusts and willing landowners to
implement new stream, riparian buffer and wetland restoration, enhancement and preservation
projects within TLWs;
S. Improved management of stormwater runoff (including the implementation of stormwater BMP
projects), especially in urban and suburban areas contributing to downstream degradation of
stream habitat and impairment of water quality; and
6. Implementation of agricultural BMPs in order to limit inputs of sediment, nutrients, and fecal
coliform to streams from active farming operations.
2.1 Site Selection
The Project was identified as a stream and buffer restoration opportunity to improve water quality,
habitat, and hydrology within the Yadkin River Basin, and more specifically, as a TLW within the 2009
Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee RBRP. The site lends itself to accomplish multiple RBRP goals along Project
reaches due to an absence of riparian buffers, cattle access to the stream, and the historic land use,
which has led to channelization. Many of the Project design goals and objectives will address major
watershed stressors identified in the 2009 RBRP. Project -specific goals and objectives will be addressed
further in Section 5. A project watershed map with the Project's drainage areas is shown on Figure 2
and watershed planning priority boundaries are shown on Figure 1.
The Project will address three of the six goals outlined in the 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee RBRP. By
establishing a conservation easement, ORW designated waters will be protected in perpetuity (RBRP
Goal 2). Collaborative efforts have been made with local and willing landowners to implement new
stream and enhancement projects within the Middle Mitchell River TLW (03040101080020) (RBRP
Goal 4). The Project will include the use of agricultural BMPs to limit inputs of sediment, nutrients,
and fecal coliform to streams from active farming operations. (RBRP Goal 6). Establishing riparian
buffers, instream structures, and increasing bedform diversity will help address RBRP Goal 1, but
achievement will not be quantified.

3 BASELINE AND EXISTING CONDITIONS
3.1 Watershed Summary Information
Drainage Area and Land Use
The Project area is comprised of Mill Creek and three tributaries that flow west to east, and eventually
drain into the Yadkin River. The total drainage area for the Project is 3,261 acres (5.09 square miles).
Primary land use within the rural watershed consists of approximately 70% forest and 25% agricultural
land. Impervious area covers less than one percent of the total watershed (Table 3 & Figure 4). Within
the agricultural land use, pastureland accounts for 91 percent of the area, cropland comprises six percent
of the area, and hayland comprises three percent of the area. Although the project watershed is primarily
forested, the majority of the agricultural areas within the watershed are in close proximity to the Project,
and play a significant role in the degradation of the Project streams. Historic and current land -use within
the immediate Project area and west of Mill Creek have allowed cattle direct access to the streams.
These activities have negatively impacted both water quality and streambank stability along the Project
streams and their tributaries. The resulting observed stressors include excess nutrient input, streambank
erosion, sedimentation, livestock access to streams, channel modification, and the loss of riparian
buffers.

Class C waters are protected for uses such as secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption,
aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, and agriculture.
Secondary recreation includes wading, boating, and other uses involving human body contact with
water where such activities take place in an infrequent, unorganized, or incidental manner (NCDWQ
2011).
Outstanding Resource Waters (OWR) are a subset of High Quality Waters. This supplemental
classification is intended to protect unique and special waters having excellent water quality and being
of exceptional state or national ecological or recreational significance. To qualify, waters must be rated
Excellent by DWR and have one of the following outstanding resource values: Outstanding fish habitat
and fisheries, unusually high level of water based recreation or potential for such kind of recreation,
some special designation such as North Carolina Natural and Scenic River or National Wildlife Refuge,
important component of state or national park or forest, or special ecological or scientific significance
(rare or endangered species habitat, research or educational areas) (NCDWQ 2011).

Trout Water Jr) is a supplemental classification intended to protect freshwaters which have conditions
which shall sustain and allow for trout propagation and survival of stocked trout on a year-round basis
(NCDWQ 2011).
3.2 Landscape Characteristics
The Project is located in the Northern Inner Piedmont Level IV ecoregion, which is characterized by
rolling to hilly higher elevations than the Southern Outer Piedmont, more rugged topography, and more
monadnocks or mountain outliers than other areas of the Piedmont. It has colder temperatures, more
snowfall, and a shorter growing season than in Southern Inner, Southern Outer, Northern Outer, and
Carolina Slate Belt Piedmont regions. It also has mostly mesic soils rather than the thermic soils that
cover other regions of the Carolina Piedmont. The region contains more Virginia pine and less shortleaf
pine than Southern Outer Piedmont and Carolina Slate Belt, more chestnut oak, and many mountain
disjunct plant species. Streams tend to have higher gradients than in the Outer Piedmont regions, and
contain many mountain -type macroinvertebrate species.
Vegetation
Vegetation around the unbuffered reaches of Mill Creek and its tributaries are primarily composed of
herbaceous vegetation and some scattered trees. In general, these riparian zones are disturbed due to
regular land management activities. On April 30, 2018 four 100 meter squared plots were surveyed
along the floodplain of Mill Creek, and its tributaries, to categorize the existing vegetation
communities. Forested riparian areas along the majority of Mill Creek and its tributaries have been
intermittently cattle -grazed and lack a well-developed understory and shrub strata, while short reaches
of enhancement and preservation represent more natural community assemblages. For this reason,
representative plots were surveyed along reach MC1, MC3 and BS 1 within the project, and JN6 within
the Gideon Mitigation Bank (Appendix B). Within each vegetation plot, all trees greater than or equal
to five inches (12.7 centimeters) diameter at breast height (DBH) were identified, measured, and used
to calculate both basal area and stems per acre. Trees greater than or equal to 54 inches (137
centimeters) in height were used to quantify tree species diversity. Canopy species data was calculated
to quantify the existing natural community (Schafale, 2012) (Table 4). Shrub species and herbaceous
species were also identified and the percent cover was estimated.

Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), trout lily (Erythronium americanum), wood anemone
(Anemone quinquefolia), and Solomon's seal (Polygonatum biflorum).
Invasive species were also found within the vegetation survey plots, and in the vicinity of the site: tree
of heaven (Ailanthus altissima), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora),
and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica). Non-native species included wavy bittercress
(Cardamine flexuosa), little leaf buttercup (Ranunculus abortivus), creeping buttercup (Ranunculus
repens), common chickweed (Stellaria media), common white clover (Trifolium repens), common
speedwell (Veronica persica), mock strawberry (Duchesnea indica), annual meadow grass (Poa
annua), red fescue (Festuca rubra), and lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula).
Existing Wetlands
A survey of existing wetlands was performed on October 4, 2017. Wetland boundaries were delineated
using current methodology outlined in the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation
Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987). Soils were characterized and classified using the Field
Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States, Version 7.0 (USDA-NRCS 2010). Within the
boundaries of the proposed Project, two jurisdictional wetlands are present. The two wetlands occur on
Reach JN3 (Figure 5), and are labeled as WA (Wetland A) and WB (Wetland B). WA is approximately
0.42 acres in size, and a small portion of the wetland is present within the easement boundary. WB is
approximately 0.48 acres in size, and a small portion of the wetland is present within the easement
boundary. Large portions of WA and WB are under active management for cattle. Vegetation within
the wetland areas was made up of tearthumb (Persicaria sagittata), Pennsylvania smartweed
(Persicaria pensylvanica), common rush (Juncus effuses), tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus), and green
bulrush (Scirpus atrovirens). Outside of the easement and wetland areas, cattle are actively managed
for, and fescue is the dominant forage. A preliminary jurisdictional determination (PJD) request was
sent to the USACE on October 27, 2017 and a final PJD has not yet been received. Wetland forms are
included in Appendix I.
The US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory Map (NWI) does not depict
any potential wetland areas within the Project, but there is freshwater pond mapped adjacent to Reach
JN3 (Figure 6). Moreover, the soils mapped adjacent to JN3 are considered predominantly nonhydric
(ArA, Arkaqua loam), and have the potential to be hydric (Figure 7).
Geology
According to geology data from the North Carolina Geologic Survey, published in 1985, the Project is
within geologic map unit Zabg, occurring in the Blue Ridge Belt. Zabg is associated with sedimentary
and metamorphic type rocks of Alligator Back formation that formed within the Late Proterozoic period
between 500 and 900 million years ago. This formation is finely laminated to thin layered; locally
contains massive gneiss and micaceous granule conglomerate; and includes schist, phyllite, and
amphibolite.
Soil Survey
The existing soil information from the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) shows the
property is located within the Woolwine-Fairvew soil association. The association is found on Piedmont
uplands. It is made up of gently sloping to steep, well drained soils that have a loamy surface layer and
a clayey subsoil. Woolwine-Fairview soil association is generally characterized by interfluves, ridges,
and low hills scattered throughout the county.
The Surry County Soil Survey shows several mapping units across the project. Map units include four
soil series. The soil series found on the Project are described below and summarized in (Table 5).
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 6 June 2018
Project #100027

Project soils are mapped by the NRCS as Arkaqua loam, Colvard and Suches soils, and Woolwine-
Fairview-Westfield complex within the easement (Figure 7). Arkaqua loam is a frequently flooded,
somewhat poorly drained soil that is found on drainageways on valleys. Colvard-Fairview-Westfield
complex is an occasionally flooded, well -drained soil that is found on natural levees on floodplains on
close to 50 percent of the Project. Woolwine-Fair-Westfield complex soils are stony, well drained, and
occur on 15-45 percent slopes on ridges.
The surrounding soils are mapped as Arkaqua, Colvard, and Woolwine-Fairview-Westfield complex.
Colvard and Woolwine-Fairview-Westfield Complex soils are considered non -hydric, while Arkaqua
is considered predominantly non -hydric. Arkaqua soils in drained areas have a moderate infiltration
rate, whereas undrained Arkaqua soils have a very slow infiltration rate; these soils occur on zero to
two percent slopes. Colvard soils have a high infiltration rate and occur on zero to three percent slopes.
Woolwine-Fairview-Westfield complex soils have a slow infiltration rate when saturated and occur on
slopes ranging from 15-45 percent slopes.
Arkaqua loam. This is a moderately deep, somewhat poorly drained soil that occurs on nearly level
floodplains along creeks and rivers in the Appalachian, Blue Ridge, and Great Smokey Mountains.
They formed in loamy alluvial sediments washed largely from soils formed in residuum from granite,
gneiss, schist, phyllite, and other metamorphic and crystalline rocks, and generally occur on slopes less
than two percent. Runoff is slow and permeability is moderate. Major uses are for pasture and crop
land. Arkaqua loam occurs in 17.4% of the total easement area at low elevation in reaches JN3-B, BS 1-
E, MC3-A, MC3-B, MC3-C, and MC3-D.
Colvard and Suches soils. These are very deep, well -drained soils that occur on alluvium on
floodplains in the southern Appalachian Mountains. They formed in loamy alluvial sediments washed
largely from soils formed in residuum from granite, gneiss, schist, phyllite, and other metamorphic and
crystalline rocks, and generally occur on slopes between zero to three percent. Runoff is slow and
permeability is moderate to rapid. Major uses are cultivated crops and pasture land. Colvard and Suches
soils occur in 44.3% of the lower elevations in the western easement.
Woolwine-Fairview-Westfield complex. This is a very deep, well -drained soil that occurs on
hillslopes on ridges in the Piedmont upland. They formed in residuum from felsic or intermediate
metamorphic or igneous rock, and generally occur on slopes between 15-45 percent. Runoff is high and
permeability is moderate. Major uses include cultivated crops, pasture, and forest. Woolwine-Fairview-
Westfield occurs in 38.3 percent of sloped segments scattered along both easement areas.

3.3 Land Use - Historic, Current, and Future
Historic aerial imagery indicates that the Project and adjacent Gideon Mitigation Bank, has been used
extensively for agricultural purposes, and that the location of the streams has not significantly changed
in over 50 years (Figure 8). Agricultural expansion occurred along the tributaries of the western
easement area beginning in the mid -1960's. The eastern easement area remained heavily forested until
cattle pastures were established along most of its length after the western easement area reached its
current stage of use. Several watershed characteristics, such as groundwater, vegetation, surface
drainage, and potentially soil parameters have been modified. Soil structure and surface texture have
been altered from intensive agricultural operations.
The Project and adjacent Gideon Mitigation Bank is currently still in agricultural use, and is being used
as pasture for cattle. Livestock have full access to the project reaches, and these reaches remain heavily
impacted. The eastern side of the Project (cleared after 1976) remained cleared, but much of the area
has been allowed to regenerate naturally. The trees in this area are dispersed throughout the pasture and
have not formed a dense stand. Outside the Project area is also mostly in agricultural use and where it
is not, remains heavily forested.
The future land use for the Project and adjacent Gideon Mitigation Bank will include 33.71 acres of
conservation easement, that will be protected in perpetuity. The combined conservation easements
encompass 12,938 linear feet of high functioning streams, a minimum 30 -foot riparian buffer, and will
be protected with fencing. Outside the Project will likely remain in agricultural use. Much of the
forested area in the immediate vicinity of the Project has steep terrain, and if it is cleared, will likely be
used for pasture rather than cropland due to the erosive properties of the soils in the area.
3.4 Regulatory Considerations and Potential Constraints
Property, Boundary, and Utilities
An existing overhead service powerline is present within the proposed easement area and will be
relocated outside the easement. In addition, a subsurface phone line is present, which will also be
relocated outside the easement. No other utility lines are present.
There are five planned crossings within the Project. These crossings will occur at easement breaks, and
will allow landowners to continue current land -use and access as needed. Three ford crossings will be
upgraded to culvert crossings, one additional culvert crossing will be added, and another ford crossing
will be improved. The bridge at the end of Ed Nixon Road will be replaced. There are seven easement
breaks; one easement break/culvert occurs along JN2-C that is approximately 27 feet; one easement
break/culvert occurs on JN2-D that is approximately 69 feet; one easement break occurs between MCI -
A
C1-
A and MCI -B that is approximately 30 feet and will allow the road to be maintained; one easement
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 8 June 2018
Project #100027

break occurs along MCI -13 that is approximately 41 feet and is an existing utility line; one easement
break/culvert occurs along JN3-13 and is approximately 43 feet; one easement/ford crossing break
occurs between MC3-13 and MC3-C and is approximately 31 feet; and one easement break/culvert
occurs along BSI -E and is approximately 42 feet.
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)/ Hydrologic Trespass
According to the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Information System, the Project includes a
portion of Mill Creek within the FEMA 100 -year flood zone (Zone AE) (Figure 9). No regulated
floodway is mapped. Hydraulic modeling will be required to determine whether restoration activities
will have an effect on 100 -year flood elevations downstream. The design and permitting of the
mitigation will include coordination with the Surry County Floodplain Administrator and a No -Rise
Certification or CLOMR/LOMR will be secured. No hydrologic trespass will be permitted to adjacent
properties upstream or downstream of the project. The Project can be found on Flood Insurance Rate
Map (FIRM) Panel 4946 (map number 3710494600J), effective date August 18, 2009.
Environmental Screening and Documentation
To ensure that a project meets the "Categorical Exclusion" criteria, the Federal Highways
Administration (FHWA) and NCDMS have developed a categorical exclusion (CE) checklist that is
included as part of each mitigation project's Environmental Resources Technical Report (ERTR). The
CE for the Little Sebastian Project is included in Appendix K and was approved by DMS and FHWA
in December 2017.
Threatened and Endangered Species
Plants and animals with a federal classification of endangered or threatened are protected under
provisions of Sections 7 and 9 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The US Fish and
Wildlife Service (USFWS) database lists three Federally listed species that may occur in proximity to
the Project: Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), small whorled pogonia (Isotria
medeolodies), and Northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis). No protected species or potential
habitat for protected species were observed during preliminary project evaluations. Species and species
habitat listed in the USFWS database were inspected during the field investigation to determine whether
they occur at the Project. No individual species or habitats were identified on site. Potential impacts to
species and habitat off site, downstream, and within the vicinity of the Project were also considered. A
letter was sent to the USFWS on October 20, 2017 requesting review and comment of possible issues
with respect to threatened and endangered species on the Project. USFWS responded on November 20,
2017 and stated that besides the Northern long-eared bat (NLEB), there is no record of other federally
protected species in the project vicinity. Incidental take of the NLEB is exempt, but the USFWS
encouraged avoiding tree cutting from May 15 — August 15, if possible. Documentation of this
correspondence can be found in Appendix K.
To comply with the NLEB 4(d) streamlined rule for federal agencies, the required consultation form
was submitted by the FHWA to the USFWS as part of the CE process for NCDMS projects. Federally
protected species met the Categorical Exclusion Criteria for FHWA and DMS projects and
documentation is included in Appendix K.
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act requires consultation with state fish and wildlife agencies when
"waters of any stream or other body of water are proposed or authorized, permitted or licensed to be
impounded, diverted... or otherwise controlled or modified." A letter was sent to the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) on October 20, 2017 requesting review and comment of
possible issues with respect to fish and wildlife resources on the Project. A response was received on
December 01, 2017 and NCWRC indicated that there is potential for the brook floater (federal species
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 9 June 2018
Project #100027

of concern; state endangered) to be present on the Project. A NCWRC biologist performed a field
investigation in April 2018 to determine if the species is present. NCWRC did not find any brook floater
in the Project area. Documentation is included in Appendix K.
Cultural Resources
A letter was sent to the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources, State Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO) that described the Project and requested a review and comment of potential cultural
resources occurring within the vicinity of the Project. On October 17, 2017 the SHPO responded to the
public notice (on September 21, 2017), stating that there will be no effect on historic resources.
Documentation of this correspondence is found in Appendix K. Cultural Resources met the Categorical
Exclusion Criteria for FHWA and DMS projects and documentation is included in Appendix K.

3.5 Reach Summary Information
The Project area is comprised of two easement areas along Mill Creek. There are seven easement breaks
on the project; one easement break/culvert occurs along JN2-C; one easement break/culvert occurs on
JN2-D; one easement break occurs between MCI -A and MCI -B; one easement break occurs along
MCI -B; one easement break/culvert occurs along JN3-; one easement/ford crossing breaks occurs
between MC3-B and MC3-C; and one easement break/culvert occurs along BS1-E. The stream
channels include Mill Creek and three unnamed tributaries, split into 18 reaches based on proposed
treatment type (Figure 10a, Figure 10b, and Figure 10c). Results of the preliminary data collection
are presented in Table 7.
In general, all or portions of JN2-B, JN2-C, JN2-D, JN3-B, MC 1-B, MC 1-C, BS I -A, BS I -B, BS I -C,
BS 1-D, BS 1-E, MC3-B, MC3-C, and MC3-D do not function to their full potential. Current conditions
demonstrate significant habitat degradation as a result of impacts from agriculture, livestock
production, and lack of riparian buffer. Being heavily eroded and incised, some of the streams do not
access their floodplains as frequently as they naturally would have prior to agricultural operations. In
many cases in the lower elevations, the riparian buffer is in poor condition where much of the riparian
buffer is devoid of trees or shrubs and row crops are present up to the edge of the existing channel. In
some of the higher elevation reaches, trees are present, but understory riparian buffer has been heavily
impacted by cattle. Habitat along the much of the restoration reaches is poor in that there is little woody
debris or overhanging vegetation for fish cover or protection for other aquatic species. Morphological
parameters are located in Appendix B.

Channel Classification
All stream reaches have been classified as perennial using the NCDWR Stream Identification Form
version 4.11 and are B-, C-, E-, and F -stream types as classified using the Rosgen stream classification
system (Rosgen, 1996). Channel characteristics are summarized in Table 7 and Appendix B. Stream
determinations have been verified by the USACE.
Discharge
Estimating flows (discharge) for the Project is difficult due to the channelization and agricultural
impacts of the existing streams. Several models, regression equations, and the Piedmont regional curves
were used to estimate existing bankfull discharges. Land use and slope were considered when the
discharge calculations were developed. All hydraulic and hydrologic analyses are discussed in Section
6.2. Data and analysis of the hydrologic and hydraulic models are included as Appendix B.
Existing Channel Morphology
JN2
Reach JN2-A is a headwater system that flows south through a narrow valley with a moderate sediment
load. The channel is incised and heavily degraded due to livestock impacts. The riparian buffer is in
fair condition with a mix of young hardwoods to the west, and a mix of hardwoods and pasture grasses
to the east.
Reach JN2-B is a headwater system that flows south from JN2-A, and into Reach JN2-C then to JN2-
D. The channel is relatively stable in location, has a gravel/cobble bed, and an intact wooded buffer
along the majority of the reach on the west side. Livestock have access to the reach; however, resulting
erosion from cattle impacts is minor and localized. Downstream 150 feet is in active pasture. There is
significant bank cutting, steep or nearly vertical bank slopes, and large deposits from the eroding
channel.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 11 June 2018
Project #100027

JN3
Reach JN3-A is a relatively stable, gravel/cobble bed stream with a low to moderate sediment load and
channel slopes ranging from one to two percent. The stream has been historically straightened and
relocated to the east side of the valley. The channel appears to be managing its sediment load and the
banks exhibit little to no erosion. The riparian buffer is fully intact and comprised of hardwoods and
little understory along the left back, while the buffer along the right bank is wooded yet narrow. Cattle
have direct access to the channel; however, there appears to be little evidence of livestock impacts.
JN3-B is sand/gravel/cobble bed stream with a moderate to high sediment load that flows south from
JN3-A to MCI -C. Livestock have direct access to the channel, and the resulting impacts have severely
degraded the channel banks. The riparian buffer is in poor condition with little to no woody vegetation
located along the top of banks.
MC1
Reaches MCI -A and MCI -B (located along Mill Creek) is a relatively stable, gravel/cobble bed stream
that flows west to east through the project. The bed profile appears stable and is controlled by cobble
riffles and bedrock outcrops. The channel appears to be managing its moderate sediment load and the
banks are generally stable throughout. The buffer is intact and forested along the right bank, while an
active pasture lines the left bank.
MCI -C (located along Mill Creek) is a sand/gravel/cobble bed stream with a moderate to high sediment
load that flows to an existing bridge crossing. Livestock have direct access to the channel, and the
resulting impacts have severely degraded the channel banks. The riparian buffer is in poor condition
with little to no woody vegetation located along the top of banks.
MC3
Reaches MC3-A, MC3-B, MC3-C and MC3-D (located along Mill Creek) flow west to east through
the project from the Gideon Mitigation Bank. It is a slightly incised and relatively stable, gravel and
cobble bed stream. The bed profile appears stable and is controlled by downstream bedrock outcrops.
The channel appears to be managing its moderate sediment load and the banks are generally stable
throughout. The buffer is intact and forested along the right bank, while an active pasture lines the left
bank.
BS1
Reaches BSI -A, BSI -C and BSI -E is a headwater system that flows south through a v -shaped valley,
eventually into Reach MCI. There are numerous headcuts and areas of incision present along the
channel, and livestock currently access the reach along its entirety. In areas where the valley floor is
slightly wider, livestock impacts are more severe, and subsequently generate higher sediment loads.
These more degraded areas are proposed for restoration. In contrast, the channel is more stable and has
coarser substrate in areas where the valley is narrower.
Reaches BS 1-B and BS 1-D is a headwater system that flows south through a v -shaped valley into Reach
MCI. There are numerous headcuts and areas of incision present along the channel, and livestock
currently access the reach along its entirety. In areas where the valley is more confined and little to no
floodplain is present, the channel appears relatively stable and has coarser substrate. These relatively
stable areas are proposed for enhancement. In contrast, livestock impacts are more severe, and the
channel is more degraded where the valley floor is slightly wider.
Channel Stability Assessment
A modified version of the channel stability assessment method ("channel assessment") provided in
"Assessing Stream Channel Stability at Bridges in Physiographic Regions" by Johnson (2006) was used
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 12 June 2018
Project #100027

to assess channel stability for the Project's existing channels. This method may be rapidly applied on a
variety of stream types in different physiographic regions having a range of bed and bank materials.
The original channel assessment method was designed to evaluate 13 stability indicators in the field.
These parameters are: watershed characteristics (frequency of watershed disturbances such as
agricultural activities, urbanization, etc.), flow habit, channel pattern, entrenchment/channel
confinement, bed material, bar development, presence of obstructions/debris jams, bank soil texture
and coherence, average bank angle, bank vegetation/protection, bank cutting, mass wasting/bank
failure, and upstream distance to bridge. See Appendix B for a detailed description of the stability
indicators. As this method was initially developed to assess stability at bridges, a few minor adjustments
were made to remove indicators that contradict stability characteristics of natural channels in favor of
providing hydraulic efficiency at bridges. First, the "channel pattern" indicator was altered such that
naturally meandering channels scored low as opposed to straightened/engineered channels that are
favorable for stability near bridges. Secondly, the last indicator, "upstream distance to bridge", was
removed from the assessment as bridges are not a focus of channel stability for this project. The 12
indicators were then scored in the field, and a rating of excellent, good, fair, or poor was assigned to
each project reach based on the total score.
The channel assessment results (scores and ratings) for the Project are provided in Table 8. Seven of
the eighteen project stream reaches received "Fair" ratings, while eight reaches received "Good"
ratings. Most reaches along BS 1 (A, C, and E) received a rating of "Poor." Most Project streams were
observed to have relatively high bank angles and many were found to be actively eroding. A majority
of the channels have been impacted by farming practices or livestock production, and most are slightly
entrenched. These characteristics are reflected in the higher channel assessment scores for average bank
angle and bank vegetation/protection. Most reaches also scored poorly for watershed characteristics
since the surrounding land use is dominated by agriculture activities.

Bankfull Verification
Bankfull is difficult and often times impossible to accurately identify on actively maintained channels
and agricultural ditches. The usual and preferred indicators rarely exist, and other factors may be taken
into consideration in order to approximate a bankfull stage. Other factors that may be used are wrack
lines, vegetation lines, scour lines, or top of a bankfull bench; however, complete confidence should
not be placed on these indicators. Along the proposed restoration reaches, the channel is generally
entrenched and actively maintained, which means bankfull indicators were very limited or non-existent.
Therefore, bankfull stage was estimated by using Piedmont Regional Curves and other hydrologic
analyses, existing cross sections, and in-house spreadsheets to estimate bankfull area and bankfull
discharge.

4 FUNCTIONAL UPLIFT POTENTIAL
The Stream Functions Pyramid Framework (Harman et. al. 2012) uses stream functions to describe
project objectives, existing condition assessments and monitoring, performance metrics, and design
criteria. The Framework separates stream functions into five categories, ordered into a hierarchy, which
communicate the interrelations among functions and illustrate the dependence of higher level functions
(biology, physiochemical and geomorphology) on lower level functions (hydrology and hydraulics).
Functions that affect the greatest number of other functions are illustrated at the base of the Pyramid,
while functions that have the least effect on other functions are illustrated at the top. The Pyramid is
illustrated below Chart 1.
Stream Functions Pyramid
A Guide for Assessing & Restoring Stream Functions m nvEev i Ew
Chart 1. Stream Functions Pyramid
wharrnang3tream-mec4anles corn 'd StreamMeehanies
Fischenich (2006) found that the most critical functions include those that address hydrodynamic
processes, sediment transport processes, stream stability and riparian buffer restoration. By addressing
these fundamental functions and processes, a restored stream and riparian system are capable of
supporting more dependent functions that typically require time to establish, such as diverse biological
communities, chemical and nutrient processes, diverse habitats and improved water and soil quality.
The objectives of the Project will address the most critical functional objectives that will allow for a
more restored stream and riparian buffer over time.
While traditional mitigation approaches have generally relied on surrogate measures of success (i.e.
linear feet of restoration) for determining SMU credit yields, a function -based approach provides a
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 22 June 2018
Project #100027

more objective and flexible approach to quantify the expected ecological benefits of a mitigation
design. Additionally, a functional based approach broadens the reach -scale goals of a restoration project
by contextualizing the functional uplift to the watershed scale. The Little Sebastian Mitigation Project
will provide numerous ecological and water quality benefits within the Yadkin River Basin by applying
an ecosystem restoration approach. The restoration approach at the reach scale of this project will have
the greatest effect on the hydraulic and geomorphology function of the system but will benefit the
upper-level functions (physiochemical and biology) over time, and in combination with other projects
within the watershed. Anticipated functional benefits and improvements within the Project area, as
based on the Function -Based Framework are outlined in Table 9.
4.1 Anticipated Functional Benefits and Improvements
Hydrology
According to the Stream Functions Pyramid Framework, hydrology is defined as the transport of water
from the watershed to the channel. Therefore, the Project intends to make significant improvements to
the already functioning hydrology, making it high functioning. Much of the improvement will come
from altering land use within these reaches' small catchment areas. By converting land use for a
significant percentage of the catchment area from pasture to riparian forest, curve numbers will
decrease and reach runoff will improve. Additionally, installation of one agricultural runoff attenuation
structure will regulate upstream runoff coming into BS1.
Hydraulic
The hydraulic function of the Pyramid is defined as transport of water in the channel, on the floodplain,
and through sediments. Perhaps the greatest potential uplift at the Project will be achieved through
establishing healthy floodplain connectivity. Reaches in the Project do not have functioning floodplain
connectivity or stable flow dynamics. Reaches where floodplain connectivity is not -functioning or
functioning -at -risk will be improved to functioning by reducing bank height ratios and increasing
entrenchment ratios. Reaches in which stable flow dynamics are not functioning or functioning at risk
will be improved to functioning by constructing a new channel that is geometrically stable based on the
Project's hydrology inputs. Additionally, instream structures will be installed to address the energy and
erosive power of the water so that a stable base flow is achieved post -project.
Geomorphology
Geomorphology as defined within the Pyramid Framework, is the transport of wood and sediment to
create bed forms and dynamic equilibrium. Sediment Transport will be improved in reaches that
currently function -at -risk or not -functioning by designing channels that transport sediment until it
reaches an appropriate place to settle like a point bar. Large Woody Debris Transport and Storage will
be improved through the use of woody debris such as log vanes, root wads, log weirs, and log toes for
in -stream structures on restoration and enhancement reaches. The restoration reaches are also designed
to accumulate woody debris by having defined shallow riffles where cobble catches and holds woody
debris and leaf packs. Riparian vegetation is functioning in some areas but is either functioning -at -risk
or not -functioning on most reaches. Therefore, riparian buffers will be planted out to a minimum of 30
feet to improve the riparian vegetation to functioning levels. Bed form diversity will be improved in
restoration areas by using a natural riffle pool sequence from the reference reach to inform design of
functioning riffle pool sequences in constructed channels based on reference reach conditions. This bed
form diversity will also further improve aquatic habitat. All of these functional parameters are
interconnected and ultimately depend on each other in order to function properly. Therefore, by
focusing improvements to these parameters, the restored channels will achieve dynamic equilibrium
and provide maximum geomorphic functional uplift.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 23 June 2018
Project #100027

Physiochemical
The Pyramid Framework defines the physicochemical category as temperature and oxygen regulation,
and the processing of organic matter and nutrients. Although the Project would support the overarching
goal in the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin Priorities to promote nutrient and sediment reduction in
agricultural areas, it is difficult to measure nutrient and sediment reduction at this project level because
they are affected by so many variables. However, several restoration actions are known to help reduce
nutrients and sediment even though they may not be measurable at the project level. These activities
include cattle exclusion and direct removal of fecal inputs, filtering runoff through buffer areas, the
conversion of active farm fields to forested buffers, and improved denitrification and nutrient uptake
through buffer zones. Additional benefits may also come from functional uplift of the lower level
stream functions (hydraulics and geomorphology), which will reduce sediment and nutrients in the
system through bank stabilization and reforesting. Temperature regulation will also be improved
through the restoration of canopy tree species to the stream buffer areas. Oxygen regulation will occur
through two actions: first, the temperature of the water directly impacts the amount of gas held by the
water. Therefore, through planting the buffer to shade the channel, the temperature is decreased and
dissolved oxygen is increased. Second, the log structures placed in the stream create mixing zones
where oxygen dissolves much faster than the standard exchange rate of oxygen to dissolved oxygen.
The processing of organic matter will be improved once healthy riffles are shallow enough to catch
twigs and branches that then retain leaves. Many of these physiochemical benefits occur slowly over
time and are dependent on multiple variables within the stream ecosystem. Therefore, it is not practical
or feasible to directly measure these parameters within the monitoring time -frame of this project. With
that said, it is logical to use existing riparian buffer and visual performance standards to demonstrate
the positive correlation between geomorphic parameters and physicochemical parameters. For
example, as riparian buffer trees grow, as represented in annual monitoring reports, it is anticipated that
canopy cover is actively shading the stream channel and reducing water temperature. This is not a
substitute for direct physicochemical monitoring, but it is a useful tool to help project the long-term
benefits of the Project in terms of the functional uplift.
Biology
The highest category of the Pyramid is biology, defined as the biodiversity and life histories of aquatic
and terrestrial life, specifically referring to animals. As mentioned for the physiochemical stream
function, it will be difficult to measure the functional uplift of the biological functions at this site within
the monitoring period of the project. However, since the life histories of many species likely to benefit
from stream and wetland restoration are depending on all the lower -level functions, the functional uplift
from the hydraulic and geomorphic levels would have a positive effect to the biology over time and in
combination with other projects within the watershed is anticipated. Again, there is no substitute for
direct biological monitoring, but it is important to understand the hierarchy of the Stream Functions
Pyramid Framework in order to help project long-term benefits of the Project though only categories
two and three (hydraulics and geomorphology) will be directly measured during the seven-year
monitoring period.

5 MITIGATION PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Through the comprehensive analysis of the Project's maximum functional uplift using the Stream
Functions Pyramid Framework, specific, attainable goals and objectives will be realized by the Project.
These goals clearly address the degraded water quality and nutrient input from farming that were
identified as major watershed stressors in the 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee River RBRP. The Project
will address outlined RBRP Goals 2, 4, and 6 (listed in Section 2).
The Project goals are:
• Improve water transport from watershed to the channel in a non-erosive manner in a stable
channel;
• Improve flood flow attenuation on site and downstream by allowing for overbanks flows and
connection to the active floodplain;
• Improve instream habitat;
• Restore and enhance native floodplain vegetation; and
• Indirectly support the goals of the 2009 Upper Yadkin Pee -Dee RBRP to improve water quality
and to reduce sediment and nutrient loads.
The Project objectives to address the goals are:
• Design and reconstruct stream channels sized to convey bankfull flows that will maintain a
stable dimension, profile, and planform based on modeling, watershed conditions, and
reference reach conditions;
• Permanently exclude livestock from stream channels and their associated buffers;
• Add in -stream structures and bank stabilization measures to protect restored and enhanced
streams;
• Install habitat features such as brush toes, constructed riffles, woody materials, and pools of
varying depths to restored and enhanced streams;
• Reduce bank height ratios and increase entrenchment ratios to reference reach conditions;
• Increase forested riparian buffers to at least 30 feet on both sides of the channel along the
Project reaches with a hardwood riparian plant community;
• Implement one agricultural BMP in order to limit inputs of sediment, nutrients, and fecal
coliform to streams from surrounding farming operations;
• Treat exotic invasive species; and
• Establish a permanent conservation easement on the Project.
Anticipated functional benefits and improvements within the Project area, as based on the Function
Based Framework are outlined in Table 9.
Limitations to achieving these watershed goals arise by remaining constrained to the project boundaries.
While we are restoring the habitat and streams to stable and effective conditions that achieve our goals
within the Project parcels, we are unable to influence the effect of poor riparian buffers and livestock
impact in other areas within the watershed. However, through this Project's connectivity with the
Gideon Mitigation Bank within the watershed and responsible stewardship of other current restoration
projects, overall watershed functionality and health will improve to meet the RBRP goals.
Best Management Practices (BMPs)
A suite of agricultural BMPs will be utilized for the Project to reduce direct effluent inputs, pollutant
contamination, and sediment loading. The combination of the following agricultural BMPs: riparian
buffer planting, bank stabilization, stream restoration, livestock exclusion, livestock watering facilities,
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan 25 June 2018
Project #100027

and pipeline, will ultimately lead to the functional uplift of the site, while still allowing livestock
production to persist through the installation of alternative water sources.
The riparian buffer will be restored along all project reaches, except the preservation reaches. Restored
riparian buffers are established adjacent to and up-gradient from watercourses of water bodies to
improve water quality. The main advantages of the restored riparian buffer will be to provide water
quality treatment, erosion control, and water temperature benefits. Moreover, there will be significant
reductions in sedimentation, nutrient input, and fecal coliform input.
Approximately 13,100 linear feet of livestock exclusion fencing will be installed along the easement
boundary; therefore, livestock will no longer have stream access. The type of exclusion fence installed
will be based on landowner preference. The main advantages of exclusion fence are that there will be
significant reductions in sediment, nutrients, and fecal coliform. To account for eliminating livestock
water access, landowners will be provided an alternate water source. A total of three wells and six
watering facilities will be installed to provide high quality drinking water to livestock.
One agricultural runoff attenuation structure will be installed at the top of BS1 where forms of
concentrated flow enter the conservation easement. The agricultural runoff attenuation structure will
be installed within the conservation easement so that the structure is protected. Failure or maintenance
of the structure is not anticipated as this structure will be installed in a low-gradient area, and the area
proposed to diffuse flow will be well vegetated and matted.
Stormwater management issues resulting from future development of adjacent properties will be
governed by the applicable state and local ordinances and regulations. It is recommended that any future
stormwater entering the Project maintain pre-development peak flow. Any future stormwater diverted
into the project should be done in a manner as to prevent erosion, adverse conditions, or degradation of
the project in any way.

6 MITIGATION WORK PLAN
6.1 Reference Stream
The restoration portions of the Project are characterized by livestock practices. Portions of the Project
were historically diverted to form poorly -functioning stream channels. Physical parameters of the
Project were used, as well as other reference materials, to determine the target stream type. The
"Classification of the Natural Communities of North Carolina" was also used to narrow the potential
community types that would have existed at the Project (Schafale, 2012). An iterative process was used
to develop the final information for the Project design.
Targeted reference conditions included the following:
• Located within the Physiographic Region and ecoregion,
• Similar watershed size,
• Similar land use on site and in the watershed,
• Similar soil types on site and in the watershed,
• Ideal, undisturbed habitat — several types of woody debris present,
• Similar topography,
• Similar slope,
• Pattern common among Piedmont streams, and
• Minimal presence of invasive species.
Obtaining property owner information and owner authorization for access was another factor in locating
suitable reference sites for the Project. There was no predetermined amount of reference sites needed
as long as the site was suitable and met the parameters. Many streams in this watershed are impacted
by cattle and agricultural practices, having a minimal riparian buffer, making it difficult to find an ideal
reference for the Project site. A reference stream site that proves to be ideal in both geomorphology and
habitat is located just upstream of the preservation Reach JN3-A on site. The reference reach is located
approximately 250 feet north of the project site. This site is the reference for JN3-B and MC1-C
restoration reaches. The reference site for BSI -A, BSI -C, and BSI -E is taken from a first order stream
in Wilkes County, an unnamed tributary flowing into Smitheys Creek.
Reference Watershed Characterization
The first reference stream is an unnamed tributary that flows north to south and drains through the
project, JN3 to Mill Creek. The portion of this reference reach that was surveyed and analyzed is
approximately 225 feet long. The drainage area for the reach is 1.44 square miles (921 acres). The
second reference reach, UT to Smitheys Creek, is also located within the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin.
This reach is 150 feet in length, with a drainage area of 0.18 square miles (118 acres). The land use in
both watersheds is characterized by mostly agricultural, with mixed pines and hardwoods (42%), and
a small amount of residential. Site photographs of the reference streams are located in Appendix B.
Reference Discharge
Several hydrologic models/methods were used to develop a bankfull discharge for each reference reach.
Existing drainage area, land use, slope, roughness, and cross sectional area were all factors considered
when performing the calculations. Using a combination of Piedmont Regional Curves, in-house
spreadsheet tools, and a project specific regional flood frequency analysis, the existing discharge for
the onsite reach was found to be around 113-122 cubic feet per second (ft3/s) and 25-28 ft3/s for UT to
Smitheys Creek. See Section 6.2 for a more detailed description of the hydrologic analyses performed
for this project.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 28

Reference Channel Morphology
In comparison to the restoration reaches, the onsite reference reach is approximately the same or slightly
smaller than Reaches JN3-B and MCI -C while UT to Smitheys Creek was slightly larger than BSI -A,
BS1-C, and BS1-E when comparing pattern, dimension and profile, which is the reason for using a
scaling factor for the design. The scaling factor is based on the difference in bankfull area of the
reference channel. The designed reach would then have the necessary dimensions of either a smaller or
larger stream corresponding to differences in drainage area. The onsite reference reach was typically
17.5 feet wide and 1.6 feet deep. The cross sectional area was typically around 27.7 square feet with a
width to depth ratio around 11.1. For UT to Smitheys Creek, the reach was typically 7.7 feet wide and
0.9 feet deep. The cross sectional area was typically around 7.1 square feet with a width to depth ratio
around 8.5.
Reference Channel Stability Assessment
The reference reaches were stable and showed no evidence of incision or erosion in the portions that
were surveyed and analyzed. Each stream appeared to maintain its slope and had sufficient amounts of
vegetation to secure its banks. Riparian buffer widths exceeded 30 feet on each side. The Channel
Stability Assessment scores and ratings for the reference reach JN3-A is provided above in and Section
3.5. The reach received a "Good" rating as the channels demonstrate a stable meandering pattern and a
well vegetated riparian buffer.
Reference Bankfull Verification
Typical indicators of bankfull include vegetation at the bankfull elevation, scour lines, wrack lines,
vegetation lines, benches/inner berm, and point bars. Throughout the entire length of the reference
reaches, bankfull is located at the top of bank elevation. The accuracy of this bankfull stage is verified
by the Piedmont Regional Curves and hydrologic analyses using existing cross sections to calculate
area and discharge. Evidence that can further support the location of bankfull is the lack of any bench
or berm features within the channel, and wrack lines present within the floodplain.
Reference Riparian Vegetation
Both reference reach riparian communities are characteristic of a Piedmont Headwater Stream Forest
community (Schafale, 2012). On March 8, 2018 two 100m2 plots were surveyed along the on-site
Smitheys Creek, to categorize the existing vegetation community. Forested riparian areas along the
reference reach have not been heavily disturbed, and remain relatively intact. Dominant tree species
included red maple (Acer rubrum), white oak (Quercus alba), American holly (Ilex opaca), sourwood
(Oxydendrum arboreum), tulip -poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), northern red oak (Quercus rubra), and
eastern white pine (Pinus strobus). The average basal area was approximately 52.5m2 per hectare, and
the average stems per -acre was 303 stems/acre. There was a high species diversity in the herbaceous
stratum, including: greenbrier (Smilax rotundifolia), Christmas fern (Polystichum acrostichoides),
cranefly orchid (Tipularia discolor), hill cane (Arundinaria appalachiana), twister sedge (Carex torta),
partridge berry (Mitchells repens), wood anemone (Anemone quinquefolia), down rattlesnake plantain
(goodyera pubescens), shrub-yellowroot (Xanthorhiza simplicissima), and southern dewberry (Rubus
trivialis). Some invasive species we present at the reference reach, most notably Chinese privet
(Ligustrum sinense) and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica).
It is anticipated that a local seed source for high dispersal species is present upstream at the Project and
will disperse across much of the Project area. These species are often found in early successional
communities and quickly fill disturbance gaps. Because many of these high dispersal species often
become aggressive in these sites, they are not included in the Restoration Planting List (Section 6.3).
Hardwood species typical of the target community were observed in adjacent and nearby communities,
and were judged to be more appropriate for this site.

6.2 Design Parameters
Stream Restoration Approach
Stream restoration efforts along the tributaries of the Project will be accomplished through analyses of
geomorphic conditions and watershed characteristics. The design approach applies a combination of
analytical and reference reach based design methods that meet objectives commensurate with both
ecological and geomorphic improvements. Proposed treatment activities may range from minor bank
grading and planting to re-establishing stable planform and hydraulic geometry. For reaches requiring
full restoration, natural design concepts have been applied and verified through rigorous engineering
analyses and modeling. The objective of this approach is to design a geomorphically stable channel that
provides habitat improvements and ties into the existing landscape.
The Project will include priority I stream restoration, enhancement I, enhancement II, and preservation.
Priority I stream restoration will incorporate the design of a single -thread meandering channel, with
parameters based on data taken from reference sites, published empirical relationships, regional curves
developed from existing project streams, and NC Regional Curves. Analytical design techniques will
also be a crucial element of the project and will be used to determine the design discharge and to verify
the design as a whole. A conceptual plan view is provided in Figure 10a, Figure 10b, and Figure 10c.
Current stream conditions along the proposed restoration reaches exhibit habitat degradation as a result
of impacts from livestock and channelization performed to promote agricultural activities. Additionally,
the riparian buffer is in poor condition throughout most of the Project area, where much of it is devoid
of trees or shrubs, and active pasture is present up to the edge of the existing channel.
The Project design approach began with a thorough study of existing conditions, including the on-site
streams, valleys, and watershed. Design parameters, including active channel, habitat and floodplain
features were developed from analyses performed on the reference site data. Analytical design
techniques were used to determine the design discharge and to verify the design as a whole.
Engineering analysis will be performed using various hydrologic and hydraulic models to verify the
reference reach based design. A combination of methods will be used to estimate bankfull flows, and
flows corresponding to other significant storm events. A HEC -RAS model will then be used to simulate
water surface elevations of flows generated by the hydrologic analysis. The development of the HEC
model is an important component to the design; therefore, model input parameters are field verified
when possible. Through this hydrologic analysis, the design discharge (typically referenced as bankfull
or dominant discharge) will be determined. The subsequent design will be based on this calculated
discharge. As part of the design process, a qualitative analysis of sediment supply will be performed by
characterizing watershed conditions. A combination of windshield surveys, existing land use data, and
historical aerial photography, followed up by ground truthing, will be analyzed to assess existing and
past watershed conditions and to determine if any changes occurred that would significantly impact
sediment supply. Design parameters developed through the analyses of reference reach data, watershed
characterizations, and hydrologic and hydraulic modeling will be confirmed using the Stable Channel
Design function and/or the Sediment Transport Analysis components within HEC -RAS in conjunction
with shear stress and velocity analyses.
Geomorphic and habitat studies will be performed concurrently with the engineering analyses. While
stream design will be verified by simulations of hydrology and fluvial processes, analogs of desirable
habitat features will be derived from reference sites and integrated into the project design. Both in -
stream and riparian habitat features will be designed. In -stream structures will be used throughout the
project to act as grade control and for bank stabilization by dissipating and redirecting the stream's

energy. Bank stability may further be enhanced through the installation of brush mattresses, live stakes
and cuttings bundles.
Sections of abandoned stream channel will be backfilled with material excavated from onsite to the
elevation of the floodplain in areas adjacent to the new channel, installing channel plugs where
necessary. The floodplain will be planted with native species creating a vegetated buffer, which will
provide numerous water quality and ecological benefits. Stream banks will be stabilized using a
combination of grading, erosion control matting, bare -root plantings, native material revetment
techniques (i.e., bioengineering), structure placement, and sod transplants where possible. The stream
and adjacent riparian areas will be protected by a minimum 30 -foot conservation easement which will
be fenced to exclude livestock as needed.
The Project has been broken into the following design reaches:
Reach JN2-A - This reach begins on the northwest end of the project, and flows south to JN2-B. This
reach totals 418 linear feet of Preservation. Sparse woodland is located adjacent to the reach.
Preservation activities will include improving habitat through supplemental buffer plantings and
livestock exclusion fencing. The widening and restoration of the riparian areas along the right bank will
filter runoff from adjacent pasture and reduce sediment loads. The easement will be extended to provide
preservation to the origin point of the stream as per the PJD.

establishment is also proposed along the downstream end. In -stream structures such as log sills and one
log cross vane will be installed for stability and to improve habitat. The restoration of the riparian areas
at the downstream end will filter runoff from adjacent pasture, reduce sediment loads, and provide
wildlife corridors throughout the Project area.

Design Discharge
Based upon the hydrologic analyses described below, design discharges were selected that fall between
model results for the 1.1 -year and 1.5 -year flood frequency analysis for each reach. The selected flows
for the restoration reaches are 120-240 ft3/s for the larger reaches and 5-8 ft3/s for the smaller ones
along BS1. These discharges will provide frequent inundation of the adjacent floodplain.
The design discharges were selected based on the following rationale:
• The calculated bankfull discharge for the analog/reference reach and existing reaches fall
between the results of the 1.1 -year and 1.5 -year flood frequency analysis,
• The results of the 1.1 -year flood frequency analysis are slightly higher than the NC regional
curve (Doll et al., 2002), and
• Selecting design discharges close to the 1.1 -year storm events allows frequent inundation of
the adjacent floodplain.
Design Methods
There are three primary methods that have demonstrated success in stream restoration: analog,
empirical, and analytical. All three methods have advantages and limitations, and it is often best to
utilize more than one method to address site-specific conditions or to verify the applicability of design
elements. This is particularly true in developed watersheds where existing conditions do not always
reflect current inputs and events, and sediment and hydrologic inputs may remain unstable for some
time. Combinations of analytical and analog methods were used to develop the stream designs for the
Proj ect.
Analytical Approach
Analytical design is based on principles and processes considered universal to all streams, and can
entail many traditional engineering techniques. The analytical approach utilizes continuity, roughness
equations, hydrologic and hydraulic models, and sediment transport functions to derive equilibrium
conditions. Since the project is located within a rural watershed, restoration designs are based on
hydrologic and hydraulic analyses, including rainfall -runoff models to determine design discharges
coupled with reference reach techniques.
Analog Approach
The analog method of natural channel design involves the use of a "template" or reference stream
located near the design reach, and is particularly useful when watershed and boundary conditions are
similar between the design and analog reaches (Skidmore et al., 2001). In an analog approach, the
planform pattern, cross sectional shape, longitudinal profile, and frequency and locations of woody
debris along the analog reaches are mimicked when developing the design parameters for the subject
stream.
1. The appropriate bankfull cross sectional area (CSA) of each design reach was calculated using
an in-house spreadsheet based on Manning's Equation. The input parameters included the
design discharge as determined by the hydrologic analysis described above, and proposed slope
based on site conditions and the sinuosity measured for the analog reach.
2. The cross sectional shape was adjusted within the spreadsheet to replicate the width -depth
ratios and side slopes surveyed along the analog reach, while also maintaining the CSA
necessary to convey the design discharge.
3. The scaling factor is determined from the ratio of the design topwidth to the analog topwidth
(Table 10). For this project, several cross sections and planform geometry were measured at
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 34

the analog site, resulting in an average width of 14.6 feet for the larger reaches and 7.6 feet for
BS1.
4. Pool cross sectional areas were calculated using both typical reference reach techniques and
the analog approach. Design CSAs were determined using the measured analog ratios of
shallow/riffle CSA to pool CSA as applied to the design CSAs. The pool cross sectional shape
was adjusted within the in-house spreadsheet as described above in step 2.

Typical Design Sections
Typical cross sections for riffles and pools are shown on the design plan sheets in Appendix A. The
cross section dimensions were developed for the four design reaches by using an in-house spreadsheet
described in Section 6.2 of this report. The cross sections were altered slightly to facilitate
constructability; however, the cross sectional area, width to depth ratio, and side slopes were preserved.
Typical pool sections include pools located on straight reaches and pools on meander bends.
Meander Pattern
The design plans showing the proposed channel alignment are provided in Appendix A. The meander
pattern was derived directly from the analog reach and was altered in some locations to provide
variability in pattern, to avoid on site constraints, to follow the valley pattern, and to make the channel
more constructible. The morphologic parameters summarized in the Appendix B were applied
wherever these deviations occurred.
Longitudinal Profiles
The design profiles are presented in Appendix A. These profiles extend throughout the entire project
for the proposed channel alignment. The profiles were designed using the analog reach bed features
that were sized with the scaling factors. The bed slopes and bankfull energy gradients were determined
for each design reach based on the existing valley slope and the sinuosity of the design reach. Log
structures will be utilized in the design to control grade, divert flows, and provide additional habitat
diversity and stability.
In -Stream Structures
Structures will be incorporated into the channel design to provide additional stability and improve
aquatic habitat. Native materials and vegetation will be used for revetments and grade control structures
where applicable. Additionally, rock structures will be utilized intermittently along Reaches JN3-B,
MC1-C, BS1-A/C/E to provide increased stability and habitat. Typical rock structures that will protect
the channel bed and/or banks will include riffle grade controls and cross -vanes.
Woody debris will be placed throughout the channel at locations and at a frequency that is similar to
those observed in the analog reaches. Woody habitat features installed will include dead brush, root
wads, brush toes, and log vanes. To provide additional bank stability, sod mats harvested on site will
be installed along stream banks during construction if and when feasible. Sod mats will only be
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 35

harvested and used if comprised of appropriate vegetation. The use of sod mats that include aggressive
turf grasses will be avoided. Sod mats are natural sections of vegetation taken from the banks when
they were cut during construction, and are about nine inches thick. Before installation, proposed banks
are graded lower than specified to accommodate the thickness of the mat. The mats are placed on top
of the bank to act as a natural stabilizer of native species, and they grow much faster than the
combination of coir fiber matting and seeding. Other bank stability measures include the installation of
live stakes, log sills, brush toes, log vanes, and log toes. Typical details for proposed in -stream
structures and revetments are in Appendix A.
Data Analysis
Stream Hydrologic Analysis
Hydrologic evaluations were performed for the design reaches using multiple methods to determine
and validate the design bankfull discharge and channel geometry required to provide regular floodplain
inundation. The use of various methods allows for comparison of results and eliminates reliance on a
single model. Peak flows (Table 11) and corresponding channel cross sectional areas were determined
for comparison to design parameters using the following methods:
• Regional Flood Frequency Analysis,
• AutoCAD's Hydraflow Hydrographs,
• NC and VA Regional Curves for the Rural Piedmont, and
• USGS regional regression equations for rural conditions in the Blue Ridge -Piedmont.
Regional Flood Frequence
A flood frequency analysis was completed for the study region using historic gauge data on all nearby
USGS gauges with drainage areas less than 6,400 acres (10 mit) which passed the Dalrymple
homogeneity test (Dalrymple, 1960). This is a subset of gauges used for USGS regression equations.
Regional flood frequency equations were developed for the 1.1-, 1.5-, and 2 -year peak discharges based
on the gauge data. Discharges were then computed for the design reach. These discharges were
compared to those predicted by the discharge regional curve and USGS regional regression 2 -year
discharge equations.
Regional Curve Regression Equations
The North Carolina Piedmont regional curves by Harman et al. (1999) and Doll et al. (2002) and the
Virginia Rural Piedmont regional curves by Lotspeich (2009) for discharge were used to predict the
bankfull discharge for the Project. The NC regional curves predicted flows that are similar to those
predicted by the 1.1 -year flood frequency, while the VA curves are comparable to flows predicted by
the 1.5 -year flood frequency equation. The regional curve equations for NC discharges by Doll et al.

USGS Regional Regression Equations
USGS regression equations estimate the magnitude and frequency of flood -peak discharges. The
regression equations were developed from gauge data in different physiographic regions of the
Southeastern United States and are appropriate for drainage areas between one and 9000 mit. For this

Sediment Transport Analysis
An erosion and sedimentation analysis was performed to confirm that the restoration design creates a
stable gravel bed channel that neither aggrades nor degrades over time. Typically, sediment transport
is assessed to determine a stream's ability to move a specific grain size at specified flows. Various
sediment transport equations are applied when estimating entrainment for sand and gravel bed streams
found in the piedmont. The US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) report, Stability Thresholds for
Stream Restoration Materials (Fischenich, 2001), was used to obtain permissible shear stresses and
velocities. Data found in this document was obtained from multiple sources using different testing
conditions. The following methods and published documents were utilized during the sediment
transport analysis:
• Permissible Shear Stress Approach, and
• Permissible Velocity Approach.
Shear Stress Approach
Shear stress is a commonly used tool for assessing channel stability. Allowable channel shear stresses
are a function of bed slope, channel shape, flows, bed material (shape, size, and gradation),
cohesiveness of bank materials, vegetative cover, and incoming sediment load. The shear stress
approach compares calculated shear stresses to those found in the literature. Shear stress is the force
exerted on a boundary during the resistance of motion as calculated using the following formula:
(1) ti = yRS
i = shear stress (lb/ft)
y = specific gravity of water (62.4 lb/ft')
R = hydraulic radius (ft)
S = average channel slope (ft/ft)
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 37

Table 12. Comparison of Allowable and Proposed Shear Stresses
'(Fischenich, 2001
Review of the above table shows that the proposed shear stresses for the Little Sebastian design reaches
fall between the critical shear stress (shear stress required to initiate motion) and the allowable limits.
Therefore, the proposed channel should remain stable.
VelocityApproach
Published data are readily available that provide entrainment velocities for different bed and bank
materials. A comparison of calculated velocities to these permissible velocities is a simple method to
aid in the verification of channel stability. Table 13 compares the proposed velocities calculated using
Manning's equation with the permissible velocities.

Sediment Supply
In addition to the stability assessment, a qualitative analysis of sediment supply was performed by
characterizing watershed conditions. A combination of field reconnaissance and windshield surveys,
existing land use data, and historical aerial photography were analyzed to assess existing and past
watershed conditions to determine if any changes occurred that would significantly impact sediment
supply. As discussed in Section 3.3, the land use throughout the site, and primarily around restoration
reaches JN3-B, MC1-C, and BS1-A/C/E has changed little since 1950. Much of the project area has
been used primarily for agricultural purposes over the past 60 years. Much of the forested areas are
located either within the headwater portions of the watersheds or along existing stream channels to the
north and to the east. Land use has remained relatively constant within this rural watershed, and
significant land disturbing activities are not anticipated for the future.
Observations and assessments of these reaches upstream and/or in the preservation reaches show little
signs of aggradation (deposition) or degradation, and that the streams appear physically stable. This
indicates the reaches are able to effectively transport the sediment supplied by their respective
watersheds. There are several localized areas of instability and erosion along the channels, which appear
to be a result of cattle activity and agricultural activities occurring up to and along channel banks and
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018

not from watershed activities. It is anticipated that sediment supply from agricultural land adjacent to
the project will decrease as buffers are enhanced and widened, and flow from existing agricultural
ditches will be diffused before entering the proposed channel.
Since little deposition or degradation (scour) was observed along the restoration reaches, it appears that
the channels are able to effectively move the sediment supplied from the surrounding watershed.
Because observed areas of degradation can be attributed to farming practices adjacent to the channel
and not watershed activities, a threshold channel design approach was used. This approach assumes
minimal movement (vertical or lateral migration) of the channel boundary during design flow
conditions, and that the channel is not sensitive to sediment supply. Additionally, grade controls have
been integrated throughout the design to provide vertical stability in the event scour should occur.
6.3 Vegetation and Planting Plan
Plant Community Restoration
The restoration of the plant communities is an important aspect of the restoration project. The selection
of plant species is based on what was observed at the reference reach, species present in the forest
surrounding the restoration site, and what is typically native to the area. Several sources of information
were used to determine the most appropriate species for the restoration project. The reference stream is
located within an intact Piedmont Headwater Stream Forest community. Dominant tree species
included red maple (Acer rubrum), white oak (Quercus alba), American holly (Ilex opaca), sourwood
(Oxydendrum arboreum), tulip -poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), northern red oak (Quercus rubra), and
eastern white pine (Pinus strobus). The reference site was chosen due to the stability of the channel,
the physical structure of the forest community, and to evaluate stream habitat.
A Piedmont Stream Headwater Forest will be the target community type for all tributaries flowing into
Mill Creek (JN2-A/B/C/D/E, JN3-A/B, AND BS1-A/B/C/D/E); and a Piedmont Alluvial Forest will
be the target community along Mill Creek (MCI-AB/C and MC3-A/B/C/D). These target communities
will be used for the planting areas within the project, shown in Appendix A. The plant species list has
been developed and can be found in Table 14. Although there is one planting zone, certain targeted
species will be planted in the appropriate target community location (Table 14). Species with high
dispersal rates are not included because of local occurrence, adjacent seed sources, and the high
potential for natural regeneration. The high dispersal species include red maple, tulip poplar, and
sweetgum.
The restoration of plant communities along the Project will provide stabilization and diversity. For
rapid stabilization of the stream banks (primarily outside meanders), silky dogwood (Cornus amomum)
and black willow (Salix nigra) were chosen for live stakes along the restored channel because of their
rapid growth patterns and high success rates. Willows grow at a faster rate than the species planted
around them, and they stabilize the stream banks. Willows will also be quicker to contribute organic
matter to the channel. When the other species are bigger, the black willows will slowly stop growing
or die out because the other species would outgrow them and create shade that the willows do not
tolerate. The live stake species will be planted along the outside of the meander bends three feet from
the top of bank, creating a three-foot section along the top of bank. The live stakes will be spaced one
per linear foot with alternate spacing vertically.

On Site Invasive Species Management
Treatment for invasive species will be required within all grading limits associated with stream
restoration. Invasive species will require different and multiple treatment methods, depending on plant
phenology and the location of the species being treated. All treatment will be conducted as to maximize
its effectiveness and reduce chances of detriment to surrounding native vegetation. Treatment methods
will include mechanical (cutting with loppers, clippers, or chain saw) and chemical (foliar spray, cut
stump, and hack and squirt techniques). Plants containing mature, viable seeds will be removed from
the Project and properly disposed. All herbicide applicators will be supervised by a certified ground
pesticide applicator with a North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services
(NCDA&CS) license and adhere to all legal and safety requirements according to herbicide labels, and
NC and Federal laws. Management records will be kept on the plant species treated, type of treatment
employed, type of herbicide used, application technique, and herbicide concentration and quantities
used. These records will be included in all reporting documents.
Soil Restoration
After construction activities, the subsoil will be scarified and any compaction will be deep tilled before
the topsoil is placed back over the Project. Any topsoil that is removed during construction will be
stockpiled and placed over the Project during final soil preparation. This process should provide
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 40

favorable soil conditions for plant growth. Rapid establishment of vegetation will provide natural
stabilization for the Project.
6.4 Mitigation Summary
Natural channel design techniques have been used to develop the restoration designs described in this
document. The combination of the analog and analytical design methods was determined to be
appropriate for this project because the watershed is rural, the causes of disturbance are known and
have been abated, and there are minimal infrastructure constraints. The original design parameters were
developed from the measured analog/reference reach data and applied to the subject stream. The
parameters were then analyzed and adjusted through an iterative process using analytical tools and
numerical simulations of fluvial processes. The designs presented in this report provide for the
restoration of natural Piedmont cobble/gravel-bed channel features and stream bed diversity to improve
benthic habitat. The proposed design will allow flows that exceed the design bankfull stage to spread
out over the floodplain, restoring a portion of the hydrology for any existing wetlands.
A large portion of the existing stream will be filled using material excavated from the restoration
channel. However, many segments will be left partially filled to provide habitat diversity and flood
storage. Native woody material will be installed throughout the restored reach to reduce bank stress,
provide grade control, and increase habitat diversity.
Forested riparian buffers of at least thirty feet on both sides of the channel will be established along the
project reach. An appropriate riparian plant community, (Piedmont Alluvial Forest along MCI-A/B/C
and MC3-AB/C/D; Piedmont Headwater Stream Forest along JN2-AB/C/D/E, JN3-AB, AND BS1-
A/B/C/D/E) will be established to include a diverse mix of species. within the project. The plant species
list has been developed and can be found in Table 14. Although there is one planting zone, certain
targeted species will be planted in the appropriate target community location. Replanting of native
species will occur where the existing buffer is impacted during construction.
Due to the nature of the project, complete avoidance of stream and wetland impacts is not possible.
Proposed stream impacts, including stream relocation and culverts, will be replaced on site. Wetland
impacts associated with restoration and enhancement efforts will only temporarily impact wetlands and
will provide an overall increase in wetland function with the addition of native trees and shrubs along
the stream banks, and restored hydrology. All stream and wetland impacts will be accounted for in the
Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) form.
6.5 Determination of Credits
Mitigation credits presented in Table 15 are projections based upon site design (Figure 10a, Figure
10b, and Figure 10c). Upon completion of site construction, the project components and credits data
will only be revised to be consistent with the as -built condition if there is a large discrepancy and with
an approved mitigation plan addendum. This will be approved by the USACE.

Table 15. Mitigation Credits
Overall, the restoration approach at the reach scale of this Project will have the greatest effect on the
hydraulic and geomorphology function of the system, but will benefit the upper-level functions
(physiochemical and biology) over time. Furthermore, by establishing buffers wider than the minimum
30 -feet, there is a direct relation to the higher functionality of the system. The wider riparian buffers
will further benefit the hydrologic, hydraulic, geomorphic, physiochemical, and biological processes
of this system; where the physiochemical and biological processes will be affected over time. Thus, the
Wilmington District Stream Buffer Credit Calculator from the USACE in January 2018 was utilized to
determine the functional uplift credit adjustment presented in Table 15.

Wilmington District Stream Buffer Credit Calculator from the USACE in January 2018 was utilized to
determine the functional uplift credit adjustment presented in Table 15.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 42

To calculate functional uplift credit adjustments, the Wilmington District Stream Buffer Credit
Calculator from the USACE in January 2018 was utilized. To perform this calculation GIS analysis
was performed to determine the area (in square feet) of ideal buffer zones and actual buffer zones
around all streams within the project. Minimum standard buffer widths are measured from the top of
bank (50 feet in Piedmont and Coastal Plain counties or 30 feet in mountain counties) and are not
included in the ideal and actual buffer calculations. The ideal buffers are the maximum potential size
(in square feet) of each buffer zone measured around all creditable stream reaches, calculated using
GIS, including areas outside of the easement. The actual buffer is the square feet in each buffer zone,
as measured by GIS, excluding non -forested areas, all other credit type (e.g., wetland, nutrient offset,
buffer), easement exceptions, open water, areas failing to meet the vegetation performance standard,
etc. Additional credit is given to 150 feet in buffer width, so areas within the easement that are more
than 150 feet from creditable streams were not included in this measurement. Non -creditable stream
reaches within the easement are removed prior to calculating this area with GIS (for both ideal and
actual). The stream lengths, mitigation type, ideal buffer, and actual buffer are all entered into the
calculator. This is data is processed, and the resulting credit amounts are totaled for the whole project
(Table 15, Figure 11).

7 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The success criteria for the Project will follow USACE's April 2003 Wilmington District Stream
Mitigation Guidelines and subsequent agency guidance. Specific success criteria components are
presented below.
7.1 Stream Restoration Success Criteria
Bankfull Events
Four bankf ill flow events must be documented within the seven-year monitoring period. The bankfull
events must occur in separate years. Otherwise, the stream monitoring will continue until four bankfull
events have been documented in separate years. Crest gauges will be installed on JN2-D, JN3-B, MC1-
B, and BS1-E.
Cross Sections
There should be little change in as -built cross sections. If changes do take place, they should be
evaluated to determine if they represent a movement toward a less stable condition (for example down -
cutting or erosion), or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (for example settling,
vegetative changes, deposition along the banks, or decrease in width/depth ratio). Cross sections shall
be classified using the Rosgen stream classification method, and all monitored cross sections should
fall within the quantitative parameters defined for channels of the design stream type. Bank height ratio
shall not exceed 1.2, and the entrenchment ratio shall be no less than 1.4 within restored reaches.
Channel stability should be demonstrated through a minimum of four bankfull events documented in
the seven-year monitoring period.
Digital Image Stations
Digital images will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradation or degradation, bank erosion,
success of riparian vegetation, and effectiveness of erosion control measures. Longitudinal images
should not indicate the absence of developing bars within the channel or an excessive increase in
channel depth. Lateral images should not indicate excessive erosion or continuing degradation of the
banks over time. A series of images over time should indicate successional maturation of riparian
vegetation.
Surface Flow
Stream restoration reaches will be monitored to document intermittent or seasonal surface flow. This
will be accomplished through direct observation and the use of hydraulic pressure transducers with data
loggers. Reaches must demonstrate a minimum of 30 consecutive days of flow. Flow gauges will be
installed on JN2-A and BS1-A.
7.2 Vegetation Success Criteria
Specific and measurable success criteria for plant density within the riparian buffers on the Project
will follow IRT Guidance. The interim measures of vegetative success for the Project will be the
survival of at least 320 planted three-year old trees per acre at the end of Year 3, five-year old trees at
six feet in height at the end of Year 5, and the final vegetative success criteria will be 210 trees per
acre with an average height of eight feet at the end of Year 7. Volunteer trees will be counted,
identified to species, and included in the yearly monitoring reports, but will not be counted towards
the success criteria of total planted stems. Moreover, any single species can only account for up to
50% of the required number of stems within any vegetation plot. Any stems in excess of 50% will be
shown in the monitoring table, but will not be used to demonstrate success.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 44

8 MONITORING PLAN
Annual monitoring data will be reported using the DMS Monitoring Report Template dated June 2017
and NC IRT monitoring template. The monitoring report shall provide a project data chronology that
will facilitate an understanding of project status and trends, research purposes, and assist in decision
making regarding project close-out. Monitoring reports will be prepared annually and submitted to
DMS. Monitoring of the Project will adhere to metrics and performance standards established by the
USACE's April 2003 Wilmington District Stream Mitigation Guidelines. Table 16 outlines the links
between project goals, objectives, and treatments and their associated monitoring metrics and
performance standards within the context of functional uplift based on the Stream Functions Pyramid
Framework.
8.1 As -Built Survey
An as -built survey will be conducted following construction to document channel size, condition, and
location. The survey will include a complete profile of thalweg, water surface, bankfull, and top of bank
to compare with future geomorphic data. Longitudinal profiles will not be required in annual
monitoring reports unless requested by USACE. Stream channel stationing will be marked with stakes
placed near the top of bank every 200 feet.
8.2 Visual Monitoring
Visual monitoring of all mitigation areas will be conducted a minimum of twice per monitoring year
by qualified individuals. The visual assessments will include vegetation density, vigor, invasive species,
and easement encroachments. Visual assessments of stream stability will include a complete
streamwalk and structure inspection. Digital images will be taken at fixed representative locations to
record each monitoring event, as well as any noted problem areas or areas of concern. Results of visual
monitoring will be presented in a plan view exhibit with a brief description of problem areas and digital
images. Photographs will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradation or degradation, bank
erosion, success of riparian vegetation, and effectiveness of erosion control measures. Longitudinal
photos should indicate the absence of developing bars within the channel or an excessive increase in
channel depth. Lateral photos should not indicate excessive erosion or continuing degradation of the
banks over time. A series of photos over time should indicate successional maturation of riparian
vegetation.
8.3 Hydrology Events
Crest gauges will be installed to document the occurrence of bankfull events. A minimum of one gauge
will be installed on each tributary that is greater than 1,000 feet in length, with one gauge required for
every 5,000 feet of length on each tributary and a maximum of five gauges per tributary. Reaches with
Priority 1 Restoration (designed to reconnect the stream to its floodplain), gauges will be capable of
tracking the frequency and duration of overbank events. Where restoration or enhancement activities
are proposed for intermittent streams, monitoring gauges should be installed to track the frequency and
duration of stream flow events.
8.4 Cross Sections
Permanent cross sections will be installed at a minimum of one per 20 bankfull widths with half in
pools and half in riffle on all Restoration and Enhancement I reaches. All cross section measurements
will include bank height ratio and entrenchment ratio. Cross sections will be monitored in Years 1, 2,
3, 5, and 7. There should be little change in as -built cross sections. If changes do take place, they should
be evaluated to determine if they represent movement toward a less stable condition (for example down -
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 45

cutting or erosion), or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (for example settling,
vegetative changes, deposition along the banks, or decrease in width/depth ratio).
8.5 Vegetation Monitoring
Vegetation monitoring plots will be a minimum of 0.02 acres in size, and cover a minimum of two
percent of the planted area. There will be eight plots within the planted area (9.81 acres). Plots will be
a mixture of fixed and random plots, with six fixed plots and two random plots. Planted area indicates
all area in the easement that will be planted with trees. Existing wooded areas are not included in the
planted area. The following data will be recorded for all trees in the fixed plots: species, height, planting
date (or volunteer), and grid location. For random plots, species and height will be recorded for all
woody stems. The location (GPS coordinates and orientation) of the random plots will be identified in
the annual monitoring reports. Vegetation will be planted and plots established at least 180 days prior
to the initiation of the first year of monitoring. Monitoring will occur in Years 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 between
July 1 st and leaf drop. Invasive and noxious species will be monitored so that none become dominant
or alter the desired community structure of the Project. If necessary, RES will develop a species-specific
treatment plan.
$,6 Scheduling/Reporting
A baseline monitoring report and as -built drawings documenting stream restoration activities will be
developed within 60 days of the planting completion on the Project. The report will include all
information required by DMS mitigation plan guidelines, including elevations, photographs and
sampling plot locations, gauge locations, and a description of initial species composition by community
type. The report will also include a list of the species planted and the associated densities. Baseline
vegetation monitoring will include species, height, date of planting, and grid location of each stem. The
baseline report will follow DMS As -Built Baseline Monitoring Report Template June 2017, USACE
guidelines, and the October 2017 Mitigation Credit Calculation Memo.
The monitoring program will be implemented to document system development and progress toward
achieving the success criteria. The restored stream morphology will be assessed to determine the
success of the mitigation. The monitoring program will be undertaken for seven years or until the final
success criteria are achieved, whichever is longer.
Monitoring reports will be prepared in the fall of each year of monitoring and submitted to DMS. The
monitoring reports will include all information, and be in the format required by USACE.

9 ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT PLAN
In the event the mitigation site or a specific component of the mitigation site fails to achieve the
necessary performance standards as specified in the mitigation plan, the sponsor shall notify the
members of the IRT and work with the IRT to develop contingency plans and remedial actions.
Little Sebastian Mitigation Plan June 2018
Project #100027 48

10 LONG-TERM MANAGEMENT PLAN
The site will be transferred to the NCDEQ Stewardship Program (or 3rd party if approved). This party
shall serve as conservation easement holder and long-term steward for the property and will conduct
periodic inspection of the site to ensure that restrictions required in the conservation easement are
upheld. Funding will be supplied by the responsible party on a yearly basis until such time an
endowment is established. The NCDEQ Stewardship Program is developing an endowment system
within the nonreverting, interest-bearing Conservation Lands Conservation Fund Account The use of
funds from the Endowment Account will be governed by North Carolina General Statute GS 113A -
232(d)(3). Interest gained by the endowment fund may be used for the purpose of stewardship,
monitoring, stewardship administration, and land transaction costs, if applicable.
The Stewardship Program will periodically install signage as needed to identify boundary markings as
needed. Any livestock or associated fencing or permanent crossings will be the responsibility the owner
of the underlying fee to maintain.

I . INSTALL EROSION CONTROL MEASURES AS DESCRIBED IN THE EROSION CONTROL PLAN AND
NOTES. EROSION CONTROL MEASURES MAY BE PHASED -IN TO THOSE AREAS OF THE PROJECT
CURRENTLY BEING WORKED ON. THE CONTRACTOR MAY MODIFY OR RELOCATE EROSION
CONTROL MEASURES TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS FOR UNFORESEEN FIELD CONDITIONS SO LONG
AS PROPER CONSTRUCTION IS MAINTAINED TO ENSURE THE INTEGRITY AND USEFULNESS OF THE
PROPOSED MEASURES. ALL DISTURBED AREAS ALONG CHANNEL BANKS SHALL BE STABILIZED
WITH TEMPORARY SEED AND MULCH AT THE END OF EACH DAY.
2. IN GENERAL, STREAM CONSTRUCTION SHALL PROCEED FROM AN UPSTREAM TO DOWNSTREAM
DIRECTION.
3. EXISTING WETLANDS CANNOT BE ENCROACHED UPON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES IF NOT
APPROVED AS DESIGNATED IMPACT AREAS. HIGH VISIBILITY FENCING MUST BE PLACED AROUND
ALL EXISTING WETLANDS THAT ARE LOCATED ADJACENT TO CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES AND/OR
ARE LOCATED WITHIN THE PROPOSED CONSERVATION EASEMENT.
4. DURING STREAM CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES, THE WORK AREA SHALL BE STABILIZED AT THE END
OF EACH WORKING DAY.
5. UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE, FILL MATERIAL GENERATED FROM CHANNEL EXCAVATION AND
STABILIZATION SHALL BE PLACED INSIDE THE EXISTING CHANNEL TO BE ABANDONED AT AN
ELEVATION THAT PROVIDES POSITIVE DRAINAGE TOWARDS THE PROPOSED CHANNEL.
G. STOCKPILE AREAS MAY BE RELOCATED UPON THE APPROVAL OF THE ENGINEER. SILT FENCING
MUST BE INSTALLED AROUND ALL STOCKPILE AREAS.
7. CONTRACTOR SHALL NOT COMPACT SOIL AROUND ROOTS OR TREES TO REMAIN, AND SHALL
NOT DAMAGE SUCH TREES IN ANY WAY. EXCAVATED OR OTHER MATERIAL SHALL NOT BE PLACED,
PILED OR STORED WITHIN THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE AREA OF THE TREES TO BE SAVED. ANY
COMPROMISED TREES NOT USED IN CONSTRUCTION ARE TO BE REMOVED AND DISPOSED OF
OFF SITE.
8. REMOVE AND STOCKPILE GRAVEL/COBBLE SUBSTRATE LOCATED WITHIN EXISTING CHANNELS TO
BE ABANDONED. THIS MATERIAL SHALL BE INSTALLED ON THE PROPOSED BED OF SHALLOW
CHANNEL SECTIONS.
9. IN -STREAM STRUCTURES PROPOSED ALONG THE OUTSIDE OF MEANDER BENDS (BRUSH TOES,
LOG VANES, AND LOG TOES) MAY BE USED INTERCHANGEABLY THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT PER
APPROVAL FROM DESIGNER.
10. THE WORK TO RESHAPE THE CHANNEL BANKS WILL BE PERFORMED USING EQUIPMENT WORKING
FROM THE TOP OF THE EXISTING STREAM BANK, WHERE POSSIBLE.
1 1. CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT WILL NOT BE PLACED WITHIN THE ACTIVE CHANNEL TO PERFORM
WORK IF POSSIBLE. PLATFORMS SHOULD BE USED TO CROSS CHANNEL WHERE ACCESS IS NOT
POSSIBLE.
12. NO MORE CHANNEL SHALL BE DISTURBED THAN CAN BE STABILIZED BY THE END OF THE WORK
DAY OR PRIOR TO RESTORING FLOW TO NEWLY CONSTRUCTED CHANNEL SEGMENTS.
13. CONTRACTOR SHALL REMOVE ALL TEMPORARY CONTROL DEVICES ONCE CONSTRUCTION IS
COMPLETE AND THE SITE IS STABILIZED. A MAXIMUM OF 200 LINEAR FEET OF STREAM MAY BE
DISTURBED AT ANY ONE TIME.
14. ALL EXCAVATED MATERIAL MUST BE PLACED WITHIN DESIGNATED STOCKPILE AREAS.
15. AT LOCATIONS IN WHICH THE EXISTING CHANNEL IS BEING MAINTAINED, TEMPORARY PUMP
AROUND DAMS AND BYPASS PUMPING WILL BE USED TO DE -WATER THE WORK AREA AS
DESCRIBED IN THE DETAILS.
I G. WHEN THE PROPOSED CHANNEL HAS BEEN SUFFICIENTLY STABILIZED TO PREVENT EROSION, ALL
TEMPORARY PUMP AROUND DAMS WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE ACTIVE STREAM CHANNEL AND
NORMAL FLOW RESTORED. ACCUMULATED SEDIMENT SHALL BE DISPOSED OF IN DESIGNATED
SPOILS AREAS PRIOR TO REMOVAL OF TEMPORARY PUMP AROUND DAM.
17. AT LOCATIONS IN WHICH ROCK STRUCTURES, BOULDER TOE STABILIZATION, AND LOG TOE
STABILIZATION ARE CALLED FOR ON THE PLANS, TEMPORARY COFFER DAMS AND BYPASS
PUMPING WILL BE USED TO DE -WATER THE WORK AREA, EXCEPT AT LOCATIONS IN WHICH THE
NORMAL FLOW CAN BE DIVERTED AROUND THE WORK AREA WITH THE USE OF AN EXISTING
CHANNEL. WHEN THE TOE HAS BEEN SUFFICIENTLY STABILIZED TO RESTRAIN EROSION ALL
TEMPORARY COFFER DAMS WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE ACTIVE STREAM CHANNEL AND
NORMAL FLOW RESTORED. ACCUMULATED SEDIMENT SHALL BE DISPOSED OF IN DESIGNATED
SPOILS AREA PRIOR TO REMOVAL OF TEMPORARY COFFER DAM.
18. MATERIAL THAT IS REMOVED FROM THE STREAM WILL BE RE -DEPOSITED OUTSIDE OF THE ACTIVE
CHANNEL AND ITS FLOODPLAIN.
19. TEMPORARY AND PERMANENT STABILIZATION OF ALL DISTURBED GRASSED AREAS AT THE TOP OF
THE CHANNEL BANKS WILL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SEEDING AND MULCHING SPECIFICATION
AS SHOWN ON PLANS.
20. RE -FERTILIZE AND RE -SEED DISTURBED AREAS IF NECESSARY.
2 1 . TEMPORARY AND/OR PERMANENT IMPACTS TO EXISTING WETLANDS SHALL BE AVOIDED TO THE
EXTENT POSSIBLE. HIGH VISIBILITY FENCING SHALL BE INSTALLED AROUND ALL EXISTING
WETLANDS LOCATED WITHIN THE PROJECT AREA AND/OR ADJACENT TO ANY CONSTRUCTION
ACTIVITIES.
STREAM CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE:
I . CONDUCT PRE -CONSTRUCTION MEETING INCLUDING OWNER, ENGINEER, ASSOCIATED
CONTRACTORS, NCDEQ EROSION CONTROL PERSONNEL, AND OTHER AFFECTED PARTIES.
CONTACT NCDEQ EROSION CONTROL PERSONNEL AT 9 19-79 1-4200.
2. OBTAIN EROSION CONTROL PERMIT FROM NCDENR - LAND QUALITY SECTION AND ALL OTHER
APPROVALS NECESSARY TO BEGIN AND COMPLETE THE PROJECT.
3. CONTRACTOR IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR CONTACTING ALL APPROPRIATE PARTIES AND
ASSURING THAT UTILITIES ARE LOCATED PRIOR TO THE COMMENCEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION.
CALL NC ONE -CALL (PREVIOUSLY ULOCO) AT I -800-G32-4949 FOR UTILITY LOCATING SERVICES
48 HOURS PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF ANY WORK. CONTRACTOR SHALL VERIFY LOCATION
AND DEPTH OF ALL EXISTING UTILITIES PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION.
4. PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION, STABILIZED GRAVEL ENTRANCE/EXIT AND ROUTES OF INGRESS AND
EGRESS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED AS SHOWN ON THE PLANS AND DETAILS. MAINTAIN EXISTING
DRIVEWAY OVERTOPPING ELEVATION / PROFILE.
5. PREPARE STAGING AND STOCKPILING AREAS IN LOCATIONS AS SHOWN ON THE CONSTRUCTION
PLANS OR AS APPROVED BY THE ENGINEER. ANY EXCESS SPOIL FROM STREAM CONSTRUCTION
SHALL BE USED TO CONSTRUCT CHANNEL PLUGS AS SHOWN ON PLANS.
G. INSTALL PUMP AROUND APPARATUS AND IMPERVIOUS DIKES AT UPSTREAM END OF PROJECT.
AS CONSTRUCTION PROGRESSES, MOVE PUMP AROUND OPERATION DOWNSTREAM. (SEE
DETAILS ON SHEET D 1)
7. INSTALL SILT FENCE, TEMPORARY CROSSINGS AND ALL OTHER EROSION CONTROL MEASURES AS
SHOWN ON PLANS.
8. CONSTRUCT UPSTREAM PORTION OF THE CHANNEL FIRST, WORKING IN AN UPSTREAM TO
DOWNSTREAM DIRECTION.
9. ROUGH GRADING OF CHANNEL SHALL BE PERFORMED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF STRUCTURES.
10. INSTALL STRUCTURES AS SHOWN ON PLANS AND DETAILS. PRIOR TO FINE GRADING, OBTAIN
APPROVAL OF THE ENGINEER ON INSTALLATION OF STRUCTURES.
1 1. UPON COMPLETION OF FINE GRADING, INSTALL EROSION CONTROL MATTING OR SOD MATS
ALONG CHANNEL BANKS.
12. FILL AND STABILIZE ABANDONED SEGMENTS OF THE EXISTING CHANNEL PER DIRECTION OF THE
ENGINEER.
13. ALL IMPERVIOUS DIKES AND PUMPING APPARATUS SHALL BE REMOVED FROM THE STREAM AT
THE END OF EACH DAY TO RESTORE NORMAL FLOW BACK TO THE CHANNEL.
14. DURING STREAM CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES, THE WORK AREA SHALL BE STABILIZED AT THE END
OF EACH WORKING DAY.
15. INSTALL LIVE STAKE, BARE ROOT, AND CONTAINERIZED PLANTINGS AS SPECIFIED ON PLANTING
PLANS.

DMS Project ID No. 100027
Contract # 7187
Dear Mrs. Condor:
ROY COOPER

MICHAEL S. REGAN
5erretary
June 14, 2018
On May 18, 2018, the Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) received the DRAFT Mitigation
Plan for the Little Sebastian Site from Resource Environmental Solutions, LLC (RES).
The report establishes the proposed mitigation activities on the project site. Anticipated mitigation
on the site includes 2,724 linear feet of Stream Restoration; 590 linear feet of Stream Enhancement
(Level I); 3,326 linear feet of Stream Enhancement (Level II); and 1,480 linear feet of stream
preservation for a total of 4,703 Stream Mitigation Units (SMUs). The following are our
comments on the DRAFT mitigation plan report and preliminary plan set:
General Comment: Please include the September 29, 2017 Post Contract IRT Meeting Minutes
in the appendices of the revised mitigation plan and confirm that the mitigation plan is consistent
with the meeting notes and IRT response e-mails (attached for reference).
Executive Summary: Please reference the thermal regime. Please provide a brief introduction
of the Gideon site to describe the benefits such as easement continuity and riparian corridor.
Section 1.2 - Proiect Outcomes: Edit the sentence "Due to its water classifications". The
proposed improvements may result in outcomes consistent with these water quality classifications
but the outcomes are not "due to" them.
Section 1.2 - Project Outcomes: Stating the proposed improvements will meet the water quality
needs of the basin should be reworded unless the parameters are to be quantified.
Section 2.1 - Site Selection: This section indicates that improvement and restoration of water
quality will be achieved. Edit this assertion or modify the monitoring plan to include water quality.

Section 3.1- Watershed Summary Information -(Page 4): Land use comprises most of the text
under the drainage area subheading. Suggesting adding land use to the subheading.
Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics: Please add a section for the site geology and provide
discussion.
Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics -Existing Wetlands: DMS recommends contacting the
USACE and including the final PJD in the revised mitigation plan prior to the IRT mitigation plan
review.
Section 3.2 - Landscape Characteristics — Soil Survey: Please label the soil survey section
according to the entire discussion in the paragraph.
Section 3.3 - Land Use - Historic, Current, and Future: Land use discussion within the Gideon
site should be included in this section.
Section 5 - Mitigation Proiect Goals and Obiectives: Project Goals - How is the improvement
of water quality/reducing sediment and nutrient loads, and increasing DO going to be measured
for success? Suggest clarifying this goal and tying it directly to an objective AND performance
criteria. Same comment for reduction in temperature.
Section 5 - Mitigation Proiect Goals and Objectives: Project Objectives - What are the
appropriate pattern, dimension and profile? Is the intent to construct stream for a particular
discharge, or dominant discharge or bankfull discharge? Please clarify.
Section - 6.2 Design Parameters:
• Reach JN2-B: The text notes minimal grading and buffer reestablishment. Will any
structures be utilized/ installed in this Enhancement I reach?
• Reach JN2-D: The channel appears to have been heavily modified/ditched. Is limited
grading the best approach for this reach?
• Reach MCI -C: Please discuss the transition into the Gideon site. Does the proposed
treatment compliment both sites?
• USGS Regional Regression Equations: Please verify this equation is applicable/valid for
each of the drainage areas calculated.
• Section 5 indicates that two agricultural BMPs will be installed on the site (project
objectives). Please describe these and their proposed location in the Section 6.2 text.
Section 7.1 - Success Criteria: Specify which reaches will have transducers/ flow gauges
installed.
Section 8.6 — Scheduling/ Reporting: "A mitigation plan and as -built drawings document.....";
this should be, "A Baseline Monitoring report and as -built drawings document.....". Please update
accordingly.

Table 16: The tree height success criteria in the table does not match what is reported in the text
(Section 7.2). Please update the table and QA/QC the table and report text to confirm they are
consistent.
Figure 1 - Vicinity Map: This map appears to be a vicinity map for the Gideon site rather than
the Little Sebastian site. Please change the emphasis to highlight the active site.
Figure 10A: Please update the title to "Little Sebastian Mitigation Site".
Figures 10A -10C: Section 5 indicates that two agricultural BMPs will be installed on the site
(project objectives). Please show the proposed BMPs on the conceptual maps.
Appendices: Please check appendices for map order and labeling consistency.
Preliminary Plan Set:
• Title Sheet — Please label the individual stream reaches.
• Sheet E 1 Construction Note 7 — Add that any compromised trees should be removed to the
note.
• Sheet E2 — Edit the linetype to emphasize the project conservation easement.
• Sheet S 1 — Add profile to include the proposed crossing.
• Sheet S 12 — Add profile if needed for the crossing.
• BMP Sheets - Add sheets detailing the proposed BMPs noted in Section 5 of the report text
and show their locations on the applicable plan sheets.
• Sheet P 1: This appears to be the planting plan for the Gideon Mitigation Bank. Please
provide the planting plan for the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site. Please QA/QC the
document to confirm that other elements of the Gideon Mitigation Bank site MP have not
been included in the Little Sebastian Site MP.
• Sheet P 1 Planting Note I — Add language to the effect "and final approval has been issued"
to the end of the first sentence.
• Sheet M1 — The monitoring plan sheet is not consistent with what is proposed in Section
8- Monitoring Plan (specifically the number of vegetation plots). Please QA/ QC the report
text and plan sheets to confirm that they are consistent. Consider moving the flow gauge
on Reach JN2 to the Enhancement I section rather than the preservation section.
• Sheet D3 Log Vane Plan View - Consider extending the stone backfill along the entire
length of the log into the streambank.
• Sheet D4 Double Log Drop Plan View - The contact "hinge" point between the two rows
of logs is prone to piping. Consider adding a note to not require contact at the hinge point
as directed by the engineer.
• Structure Details — Please provide boulder size specifications everywhere applicable within
the plan sheets.

Meeting Summary
Date: August 15, 2017
RES Attendees: Daniel Ingram, Cara Conder, David Godley, Daniel Ramsay
DMS Attendees: Paul Wiesner, Harry Tsomides, Kirsten Ullman
IRT Attendees: Todd Tugwell (USACE), Mac Haupt (NCDWR), Olivia Munzer (NCWRC)
General Summary: IRT members generally agreed the Little Sebastian Site is suitable to provide
compensatory stream mitigation credits. IRT members commented on the proposed mitigation
ratios for several stream reaches. Because of the IRT comments a modified conceptual plan is
attached to this memorandum detailing the updated approach, ratios, and estimated credit yield.
Total site credits were originally proposed as 4,653 have been reduced to 4,368 (285 credit
reduction). However, some opportunities exist to increase credit yield based on the final
mitigation approach and buffer widths. The proposed mitigation approach and crediting will be
justified in the final mitigation plan. Specific discussions related to each reach are discussed
below.
Reach JN1-A: RES proposed this reach as EII with a 2.5:1 credit ratio. IRT members
questioned the appropriateness of this ratio and proposed bank stabilization efforts. The upper
end of this reach lacks obvious livestock impacts and has an intact buffer on the right bank. Bed
material is mostly cobble and lacks obvious sedimentation issues. To address IRT comments the
proposed credit ratio has been changed to 10:1 above the driveway crossing and 5:1 through the
remainder of the pasture.
Reach JN1-B: IRT members agreed this reach merits restoration along most of its length. Todd
Tugwell questioned the proposed upstream limit of restoration and suggested it be moved
downstream based on channel conditions. In response, the revised conceptual plan begins
restoration approximately 100' downstream from where originally proposed. Due to the tie-in
with JN3 and elevation constraints RES believes that is a feasible break point between
enhancement and restoration. Topo survey and detailed channel assessments will determine the

final proposed limits of restoration. The proposed Gideon RES Bank Site located between JN1
and MCI was also discussed. RES intends to permit and construct this bank site in sequence
with the Little Sebastian project, However, due to its downstream location from JN1 it is not
expected to impact development of the full delivery project.
Reach JN2: This reach was originally proposed as restoration and EII. IRT members questioned
the necessity for restoration on the upper reach but generally accepted EII as an appropriate ratio
for most of the reach. IRT members agreed the upstream most segment in the upper pasture area
is highly impaired by livestock access and a higher level of intervention is appropriate. RES has
proposed this short segment as EI to address IRT comments. The ephemeral reach proposed for
protection and BMP placement was discussed as potentially intermittent and appropriate for
preservation at either 10:1 or 5:1 credit based on protected buffer width. If the reach is
intermittent the BMP will not be constructed, rather the easement will be extended to provide
preservation to the origin point in the forested watershed. The JD will ultimately determine the
limits of preservation. The downstream end of Reach JN2 near the confluence with Mill Creek
is proposed as EI based on IRT comments. Mac Haupt stated that restoration may also be
acceptable based on survey and detailed channel assessment results.
Reach JN3: RES originally proposed JN3 as a combination of EII on the upstream end and
restoration along most of its length. The IRT generally agreed with this approach, however they
suggested the upstream segment is more appropriate as preservation at a 10:1 ratio. IRT
members commented that the upstream limit of restoration could be extended to better tie-in with
the valley low point and provide adequate buffer from the farm road. The revised concept plan
incorporates these modifications.
Reach MCI: RES originally proposed this reach as EII with a consistent 2.5:1 ratio. Based on
IRT feedback throughout the Little Sebastian site visit that concept has been refined to include a
short segment of 10:1 preservation at the upstream end, EII along most of the reach, EI at the
ford crossing, and 5:1 enhancement below the crossing. The EII segment will include bank
stabilization and riparian plantings in conjunction with an improved ford crossing. The EI ratio
is intended to include substantial bank stabilization and instream structures to provide a stable
ford crossing. The 5:1 enhancement will include livestock exclusion and left bank riparian
plantings. The final exact limits of each mitigation prescription will be based on topo survey and
design.
Reach BS 1: No changes to the BS 1 conceptual plan are proposed. IRT members generally
agreed with the enhancement and restoration approach based on impairment and construction
access. Restoration in-place was discussed with the group and agreed to be an acceptable
approach where floodplain access is limited. Final limits of restoration and enhancement will be
based on topo survey and detailed channel assessments.

Paul,
I reviewed the minutes for all of these and generally agree, however, I do take exception with one sentence that appears
in the first paragraph of the Catbird and Mockingbird minutes, "IRT members also confirmed the technical approach,
and ratios proposed as appropriate."
At the Catbird site we did have few discussions about the approach and flow at the top of DS1 and other discussions
regarding the other reach and appropriate level of intervention. At the Mockingbird site we did generally agree with the
approach, however, we did not look closely at NMI and NM4.
As we have said before, all final agreements on ratios and approach are associated with the Mitigation Plan.
The Little Sebastian site minutes and revised concept plan did a good job of capturing what was discussed.

I reviewed the minutes for all of these and generally agree, however, I do take exception with one sentence that appears
in the first paragraph of the Catbird and Mockingbird minutes, "IRT members also confirmed the technical approach,
and ratios proposed as appropriate."
At the Catbird site we did have few discussions about the approach and flow at the top of DS1 and other discussions
regarding the other reach and appropriate level of intervention. At the Mockingbird site we did generally agree with the
approach, however, we did not look closely at NM1 and NM4.
As we have said before, all final agreements on ratios and approach are associated with the Mitigation Plan.
The Little Sebastian site minutes and revised concept plan did a good job of capturing what was discussed.
Thanks,
Mac

III. GRANTEE RESERVED USES
A. Right of Access, Construction, and Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents,
successors and assigns, receive a perpetual Right of Access to the Conservation Easement Area
over the Property at reasonable times to undertake any activities on the property to restore,
construct, manage, maintain, enhance, protect, and monitor the stream, wetland and any other
riparian resources in the Conservation Easement Area, in accordance with restoration activities
or a long-term management plan. Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Conservation
Easement, the rights granted herein do not include or establish for the public any access rights.
B. Restoration Activities. These activities include planting of trees, shrubs and herbaceous
vegetation, installation of monitoring wells, utilization of heavy equipment to grade, fill, and
prepare the soil, modification of the hydrology of the site, and installation of natural and
manmade materials as needed to direct in -stream, above ground, and subterraneous water flow.
C. Signs. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors or assigns, shall be permitted
to place signs and witness posts on the Property to include any or all of the following: describe
the project, prohibited activities within the Conservation Easement, or identify the project
boundaries and the holder of the Conservation Easement.
D. Fences. Conservation Easements are purchased to protect the investments by the State
(Grantee) in natural resources. Livestock within conservations easements damages the
investment and can result in reductions in natural resource value and mitigation credits which
would cause financial harm to the State. Therefore, Landowners (Grantor) with livestock are
required to restrict livestock access to the Conservation Easement area. Repeated failure to do so
may result in the State (Grantee) repairing or installing livestock exclusion devices (fences)
within the conservation area for the purpose of restricting livestock access. In such cases, the
landowner (Grantor) must provide access to the State (Grantee) to make repairs.
E. Crossing Area(s). The Grantee is not responsible for maintenance of crossing area(s),
however, the Grantee, its employees and agents, successors or assigns, reserve the right to repair
crossing area(s), at its sole discretion and to recover the cost of such repairs from the Grantor if
such repairs are needed as a result of activities of the Grantor, his successors or assigns.
IV. ENFORCEMENT AND REMEDIES
A. Enforcement. To accomplish the purposes of this Conservation Easement, Grantee is
allowed to prevent any activity within the Conservation Easement Area that is inconsistent with
the purposes of this Conservation Easement and to require the restoration of such areas or
features in the Conservation Easement Area that may have been damaged by such unauthorized
activity or use. Upon any breach of the terms of this Conservation Easement by Grantor, the
Grantee shall, except as provided below, notify the Grantor in writing of such breach and the
Grantor shall have ninety (90) days after receipt of such notice to correct the damage caused by
such breach. If the breach and damage remains uncured after ninety (90) days, the Grantee may
enforce this Conservation Easement by bringing appropriate legal proceedings including an
action to recover damages, as well as injunctive and other relief. The Grantee shall also have the
NCDMS Full Delivery Conservation Easement Template adopted 5 May 2017
Page 6of11

power and authority, consistent with its statutory authority: (a) to prevent any impairment of the
Conservation Easement Area by acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Conservation
Easement; (b) to otherwise preserve or protect its interest in the Property; or (c) to seek damages
from any appropriate person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee reserves the
immediate right, without notice, to obtain a temporary restraining order, injunctive or other
appropriate relief, if the breach is or would irreversibly or otherwise materially impair the
benefits to be derived from this Conservation Easement, and the Grantor and Grantee
acknowledge that the damage would be irreparable and remedies at law inadequate. The rights
and remedies of the Grantee provided hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all
other rights and remedies available to Grantee in connection with this Conservation Easement.
B. Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors and assigns, have the
right, with reasonable notice, to enter the Conservation Easement Area over the Property at
reasonable times for the purpose of inspection to determine whether the Grantor is complying
with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Conservation Easement.
C. Acts Beyond Grantor's Control. Nothing contained in this Conservation Easement
shall be construed to entitle Grantee to bring any action against Grantor for any injury or change
in the Conservation Easement Area caused by third parties, resulting from causes beyond the
Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, storm, and earth movement, or from
any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under emergency conditions to prevent,
abate, or mitigate significant injury to life or damage to the Property resulting from such causes.
D. Costs of Enforcement. Beyond regular and typical monitoring expenses, any costs
incurred by Grantee in enforcing the terms of this Conservation Easement against Grantor,
including, without limitation, any costs of restoration necessitated by Grantor's acts or omissions
in violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement, shall be borne by Grantor.
E. No Waiver. Enforcement of this Easement shall be at the discretion of the Grantee and
any forbearance, delay or omission by Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the event of any
breach of any term set forth herein shall not be construed to be a waiver by Grantee.
V. MISCELLANEOUS
A. This instrument sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the
Conservation Easement and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings or
agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the
remainder of the provisions of the Conservation Easement, and the application of such provision
to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is found to be invalid, shall not be
affected thereby.
B. Grantor is responsible for any real estate taxes, assessments, fees, or charges levied upon

NCDMS Full Delivery Conservation Easement Template adopted 5 May 2017
Page 7 of 11

obligation to comply with federal, state or local laws, regulations and permits that may apply to
the exercise of the Reserved Rights.
C. Any notices shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested to the
parties at their addresses shown herein or to other addresses as either party establishes in writing
upon notification to the other.
D. Grantor shall notify Grantee in writing of the name and address and any party to whom

Grantor further agrees that any subsequent lease, deed, or other legal instrument by which any
interest in the Property is conveyed is subject to the Conservation Easement herein created.
E. The Grantor and Grantee agree that the terms of this Conservation Easement shall survive
any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
F. This Conservation Easement and Right of Access may be amended, but only in writing
signed by all parties hereto, or their successors or assigns, if such amendment does not affect the
qualification of this Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable

Appendix D —Credit Release Schedule

CREDIT RELEASE SCHEDULE
All credit releases will be based on the total credit generated as reported in the approved final mitigation
plan, unless there are major discrepancies and then a mitigation plan addendum will be submitted. Under
no circumstances shall any mitigation project be debited until the necessary Department of the Army (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 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 be restarted 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 in Table D1.

*Please note that vegetation data may not be required with monitoring reports submitted during these monitoring years
unless otherwise required by the Mitigation Plan or directed by the IRT.
**10% reserve of credits to be held back until the bankfull event performance standard has been met.
Initial Allocation of Released Credits
The initial allocation of released credits, as specified in the mitigation plan, can be released by DMS without
prior written approval of the DE upon satisfactory completion of the following activities:
1) Approval of the final Mitigation Plan.
2) Recordation of the preservation mechanism, as well as a title opinion acceptable to the USACE
covering the property.
3) Completion of project construction (the initial physical and biological improvements to the
mitigation site) pursuant to the mitigation plan; per the DMS Instrument, construction means
that a mitigation site has been constructed in its entirety, to include planting, and an as -built
report has been produced. As -built reports must be sealed by an engineer prior to project
closeout, if appropriate but not prior to the initial allocation of released credits.

4) Receipt of necessary DA permit authorization or written DA approval for projects where DA
permit issuance is not required.
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 bankfall 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 credit release, DMS 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.

Appendix E —Financial Assurance

FINANCIAL ASSURANCE
Pursuant to Section IV H and Appendix III of the NCDEQ DMS (formerly Ecosystem Enhancement
Program) In -Lieu Fee Instrument dated July 28, 2010, the North Carolina Department of Environmental
Quality (NCDEQ) has provided the USACE-Wilmington District with a formal commitment to fund
projects to satisfy mitigation requirements assumed by NCDEQ DMS. This commitment provides financial
assurance for all mitigation projects implemented by the program.

Appendix F —Maintenance Plan

MAINTENANCE PLAN
The site will be monitored on a regular basis and a physical inspection will 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 years following site construction and may
include the following:
Fl. Maintenance Plan
Component/Feature
Maintenance through project close-out
Stream
Routine channel maintenance and repair activities may include chinking of
in -stream structures to prevent piping, securing of loose coir matting, and
supplemental installations of live stakes and other target vegetation along the
channel. Areas where stormwater and floodplain flows intercept the channel
may also require maintenance to prevent bank failures and head -cutting.
Stream maintenance activities will be documented and reported in annual
monitoring reports. Stream maintenance will continue through the
monitoring period.
Wetland
N/A
Vegetation
Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted
plant community. Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may
include supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. Exotic
invasive plant species shall be treated by mechanical and/or chemical
methods. Any vegetation requiring herbicide application will be performed
in accordance with NC Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and
regulations. Vegetation maintenance activities will be documented and
reported in annual monitoring reports. Vegetation maintenance will continue
through the monitoring period.
Site Boundary
Site boundaries shall be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction
between the mitigation site and adjacent properties. Boundaries will be
marked with signs identifying the property as a mitigation site, and will
include the name of the long-term steward and a contact number. Boundaries
may be identified by fence, marker, 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. Easement monitoring and staking/signage maintenance
will continue in perpetuity as a stewardship activity.
Road Crossing
Road crossings within the site may be maintained only as allowed by
conservation easement or existing easement, deed restrictions, rights of way,
or corridor agreements. Crossings in easement breaks are the responsibility
of the landowner to maintain.
Livestock Fencing
Livestock fencing is to be placed outside the easement limits. Maintenance
of fencing is the responsibility of the landowner.

Component/Feature
Maintenance through project close-out
Beaver
Routine site visits and monitoring will be used to determine if beaver
management is needed. If beaver activity poses a threat to project stability or
vegetative success, RES will trap beavers and remove impoundments as
needed. All beaver management activities will be documented and included
in annual monitoring reports. Beaver monitoring and management will
continue through the monitoring period.

Carolina and is adjacent to and associated with SAW -2017- 01462 Gideon Mitigation site.
Indicate Which of the Following Ap pl :
A. Preliminary Determination
® There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that maybe 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 10/27/2017. 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 wetlands on 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 -2017-01507
❑ 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 on DATE. 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 William Elliott at 828-271-7980 ext 4224 or
William. a. elliottra; usace.armv. mil.
C. Basis For Determination: See the PJD iurisdictional determination form dated 5/22/2018.
D. Remarks: None.
E. Attention USDAProgram Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the particular site
identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation provisions of the Food Security
Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should request

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 AJD
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 or judicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any
administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD
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:

Appendix J —Invasive Species Plan

INVASIVE SPECIES PLAN
Annual monitoring and semi-annual site visits will be conducted to assess the condition of the finished
project. These site inspections may identify the presence of invasive vegetation. RES will treat invasive
species vegetation within the project area and provide remedial action on a case by- case basis. Common
invasive species vegetation, such as Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora),
tree -of -heaven (Ailanthus altissima), and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), will be treated to
allow native plants to become established within the conservation easement. Invasive species vegetation
will be treated by approved mechanical and/or chemical methods such that the percent composition of
exotic/invasive species is less than 5% of the total riparian buffer area. Any control methods requiring
herbicide application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules
and regulations. If areas of invasive species exist within the easement, they will be monitored yearly as part
of the monitoring protocol, and treated if necessary. If required, problem areas will continue to be treated
until the project easement shows overall trending towards meeting all monitoring requirements.

DescriptionProject
The Little Sebastian site is a stream restoration site in Surry County (Yadkin River:
03040101080020) whose objectives are to restore or enhance 7,484 linear feet of a portion of
Mill Creek and four unnamed tributaries. The project watershed is primarily forested and
mixed agricultural land, and has historically served this purpose. Most project reaches are
currently being impacted by livestock production, agricultural production, and lack of riparian
buffer. A combination of stream restoration and enhancement is proposed to increase
hydrologic and ecological function and protect these natural features in perpetuity.

Categorical Exclusion Summary

Categorical Exclusion Summary
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly
known as Superfund, created a tax on the chemical and petroleum industries to clean up abandoned or
uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.
As a part of the ERTR and CERCLA compliance, an EDR Radius Map Report with Geocheck was ordered
for the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site through Environmental Data Resources, Inc (EDR) on August 29,
2017. According to the EDR report, there were not any listed sites located within one mile of the project
site. In addition to the EDR search, a visual inspection of the Little Sebastian site was conducted to assess
the potential for the occurrence of recognized environmental conditions on the property that might not have
been revealed in the EDR report. The inspection was conducted to locate and identify any obvious use,
storage, or generation of hazardous materials. No hazardous storage containers or substances were
observed.
Overall, the EDR assessment revealed no evidence of "recognized environmental conditions" in connection
with the target property. The summary of the EDR report is included in the Appendix.
National Historical Preservation Act (Section 106)
The National Historical Preservation Act (NHPA) is legislation intended to preserve historical and
archaeological sites in the United States of America. RES requested review and comment from the State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) with respect to any archaeological and architectural resources related
to the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site on October 20th, 2017. SHPO responded on October 24, 2017 and
had no objections to the Little Sebastian Project. The correspondence SHPO can be found in the Appendix.
Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act)
The Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act) provides
important protections and assistance for those people affected by federally funded projects. The Uniform
Act applies to the acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition of real property for federally funded projects.
The Little Sebastian Mitigation Site is a full -delivery project that includes land acquisition. Notification of
fair market value of the property and the lack of condemnation authority was completed by RES. The
landowner was notified of fair market value and condemnation authority was listed in the option agreement.
Endangered Species Act (ESA)
Section 7 of the ESA requires federal agencies, in consultation with and with the assistance of the Secretary
of the Interior or of Commerce, as appropriate, to ensure that actions they authorize, fund or carry out are
not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of threatened or endangered species or result in the
destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat for these species.
Surry County's list of threatened and endangered species include Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus
schweinitzii), Small Whorled Pogonia (Isotria medeoloides), and Northern Long Eared Bat (NLEB) (Myotis
septentrionalis). Other than the NLEB, the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site does not support any habitat
related to any of the threatened or endangered species listed above.
During site visits performed by RES, no NLEB individuals were found to exist on the site. A completed
NLEB 4(d) Rule Streamline Consultation Form will be submitted by the Federal Highways Administration
to the USFWS. The NLEB 4(d) Rules states "that the project may affect the NLEB, but that any resulting
incidental take of the NLEB is not prohibited by the final 4(d) rule." All correspondence with the USFWS
is included in the Appendix.

Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA)
The Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA) is intended to minimize the impact federal programs have on
the unnecessary and irreversible conversion of farmland to nonagricultural uses. The Little Sebastian
Mitigation Site includes the conversion of prime farmland. As such, Form AD -1006 has been completed
and submitted to the Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS). The completed form and
correspondence documenting it submittal is included in the Appendix.
Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA)
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) of the United States was enacted to protect fish and
wildlife when federal actions result in the control or modification of a natural stream or body of water.
Since the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site includes stream restoration RES requested comment from the
North Carolina Fish and Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC). The NCWRC responded on December
1, 2017 and stated that they intend to investigate Mill Creek for brook floater, a state endangered species.
If brook floaters, or another listed aquatic species is found, additional measures may be needed to protect
these species if restoration efforts are likely to impact them. All correspondence can be found in Appendix
F.
Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA)
The MBTA makes it unlawful for anyone to kill, capture, collect, possess, buy, sell, trade, ship import, or
extort and migratory bird. The indirect killing of birds by destroying their nests and eggs is covered by the
MBTA, so construction in nesting areas during nesting seasons can constitute at taking.
RES requested comment on the Little Sebastian Mitigation Site from the USFWS in regard to migratory
birds on October 20th, 2017. The USFWS responded on November 20, 2017 and stated that besides the
Northern long-eared bat, there is no record of other federally protected species in the project vicinity. All
correspondence with USFWS will be included in the Appendix.

Dear Ms. Gledhill -Earley,
The Little Sebastian Site has been identified by Resource Environmental Solutions, LLC (RES) to
provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable stream and wetland impacts. The proposed
project involves the restoration and enhancement of approximately 7,392 linear feet of stream.
RES requests review and comment on any possible issues that might emerge with respect to
archaeological or cultural resources associated with a potential stream mitigation project on the
Little Sebastian Site (a USGS site map with approximate limits of conservation easement is
attached).
A review of the N.C. State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) HPOWEB GIS Service database
(http://gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/; accessed October 17, 2017) was performed as part of the site due
diligence evaluation. The database did not reveal any listed or potentially eligible historic or
archeological resources on the proposed properties. In addition, the majority of the site has
historically been disturbed due to cattle grazing.
We ask that you review this site based on the attached information to determine the presence of
any historic properties. We thank you in advance for your timely response and cooperation. You
may return the comment to my attention at the address below, or via email. Please feel free to
contact me at mdeangelokres.us with any questions that you may have concerning the extent of
site disturbance associated with this project.

Subject: RE: [External] Mockingbird Mitigation Site
Matt,
Thanks for the opportunity to review these 3 mitigation project for issues related to fish and wildlife.
The Mockingbird Stream Mitigation Site is located on Hauser Creek and its tributaries in Davie
County. Hauser Creek is a direct tributary to the Yadkin River. There's an existing easement
downstream of this new mitigation site. There are no records for any listed aquatic species in the
vicinity of this project.
The Catbird Stream Mitigation Site appears to be located on an unnamed tributary to the Yadkin River
located east of Hauser Creek in Davie County. There are no records for any listed aquatic species in the
vicinity of this project.
The Little Sebastian Stream Mitigation Site is located in Surry County on Mill Creek and 3 of it's
tributaries. Mill Creek is a tributary to the Mitchell River. While there are no records of listed aquatic
species in Mill Creek, there are records for brook floater, Alasmidonta varicosa, in the Mitchell River
upstream and downstream of the Mill Creek confluence. Brook floater is a state endangered
species. I've consulted with our aquatic biologists about the possibility of brook floaters in Mill
Creek. There are no records from Mill Creek, but we don't have any records of collection efforts there
either. So brook floaters may inhabit Mill Creek, near the area proposed for restoration. Our biologist
plan to investigate Mill Creek to see if there are brook floaters present or if the habitat there is likely to
support them. If brook floaters, or another listed aquatic species is found, additional measures will be
needed to protect these species if restoration efforts are likely to impact them. While restoration
efforts are likely to improve habitat conditions in the long term in Mill Creek, and potentially improve
conditions downstream in the Mitchell River as well, there may be short term impacts to aquatic species
and habitats during restoration. Additional measures during restoration may be needed to minimize
these short term impacts.
Regarding terrestrial species, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) recently listed the northern
long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Davie & Surry
counties are within the range
(https://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/mammals/nleb/pdf/WNSZone.pdf) of the northern long-
eared bat and may be present or in the vicinity of the project site. As such, consultation with the USFWS
may be required. For more information, please see
https://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/mammals/nleb/ or
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/NLEB RFO.html or contact the Asheville office of the USFWS to ensure
that potential issues related to this species are addressed.
Please let me know if I can assist further. Also, feel free to follow up on the results of survey efforts in
Mill Creek if you have not yet heard from me.

No worries. Thank you for the extra info. And yes, our activities will be in the pasture upstream.
Starting at about 4,500 ft. upstream of the Mitchell River confluence, we will be doing Enhancement
activities such as bank stabilization, buffer plantings, and fencing out cattle. Then, about 2,000 ft.
above that is where our full -on restoration begins. Then some more Enhancement activities above
that. So, we'll see ... maybe those floaters will make their way up some day.

Sorry for the short reply. Here is a little more: lower Mill Creek is actually in decent shape, and
where it enters Mitchell River is a good population of Brook Floaters. Is the restoration upstream in
the cattle pasture? It looked really bad there, it and the Mitchell would benefit greatly.

Hello all,

I wanted to follow-up with you guys to see if you still intend to perform a survey for brook floater at
our site. We are ramping up our Mitigation Plan for the project and are interested in the status of
this species. Let me know if you have any plans in mind, and we can coordinate an effort
accordingly.
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

T.R. & Michael,
I've attached information on the Little Sebastian stream mitigation site on Mill Creek, Mitchell River
trib. I emailed Matt DeAngelo about the possibility of brook floaters in Mill Creek and your plans to
check it out in the near future and copied him here. He is happy to assist with that survey effort and
can help with access to Mill Creek near the mitigation site if you'd like to sample there. Just let me
know how it goes...
The Little Sebastian Stream Mitigation Site has been identified by Resource Environmental Solutions,
LLC (RES) to provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable stream impacts through the North
Carolina Division of Mitigation Services. The purpose of this letter is to request, review, and
comment on any possible issues that might emerge with respect to fish and wildlife associated with
a potential stream restoration project on the attached site (A USGS site map with approximate

Dear Mr. DeAngelo:
Subject: Little Sebastian Catbird Mitigation Site; Surry County, North Carolina
Log No. 4-2-18-032
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the information provided in your
correspondence received via email dated October 20, 2017. We submit the following comments
in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended
(16 U.S.C. 661-667e); the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. §4321 et seq.); and
section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act).
Project Description
According to your correspondence, you are seeking our scoping comments to inform a NEPA
document for a proposed mitigation bank near Union Hill, North Carolina. The proposed bank
would entail restoration and enhancement of approximately 7,392 linear feet of Mill Creek and
its unnamed tributaries. The proposed project would be located approximately 0.8 river miles
upstream from the Mitchell River. Adjacent land use is dominated by pasture and row crops.
Federally Listed Endangered and Threatened Species
According to Service records, suitable summer roosting habitat may be present in the project
area for the federally threatened northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis). However, the
final 4(d) rule (effective as of February 16, 2016), exempts incidental take of northern long-eared
bat associated with activities that occur greater than 0.25 miles from a known hibernation site,
and greater than 150 feet from a known, occupied maternity roost during the pup season (June 1
— July 31). Based on the information provided, the project (which may or may not require tree
clearing) would occur at a location where any incidental take that may result from associated
activities is exempt under the 4(d) rule. Although not required, we encourage you to avoid
any associated tree clearing activities during the maternity roosting season from May 15 —
August 15 if possible.
The Service has record of no other federally protected species in the project vicinity. However,
the proposed project would occur less than one river mile upstream from a reach of the Mitchell
River with recent occurrences for the brook floater mussel (Alasmidonta varicosa). The brook
floater is a federal species of concern and is not currently afforded legal protection under the Act.
However, incorporating proactive conservation measures may help preclude the need to list this

species in the future. Like most freshwater mussels, this species is a sessile benthic filter -feeder
that is highly sensitive to aquatic habitat modifications. Eutrophication- and sedimentation -
mediated impacts are likely among this species' greatest threats. Agricultural runoff may
transport toxins that impact juveniles and adults.
We offer the following comments in the interest of protecting this and other fish and wildlife
resources:
Stream Buffers
Natural, forested riparian buffers are critical to the health of aquatic ecosystems. They
accomplish the following:
1. catch and filter runoff, thereby helping to prevent nonpoint-source pollutants
from reaching streams;
2. enhance the in -stream processing of both point- and nonpoint-source
pollutants;
3. act as "sponges" by absorbing runoff (which reduces the severity of floods)
and by allowing runoff to infiltrate and recharge groundwater levels (which
maintains stream flows during dry periods);
4. catch and help prevent excess woody debris from entering the stream and
creating logjams;
5. stabilize stream banks and maintain natural channel morphology;
6. provide coarse woody debris for habitat structure and most of the dissolved
organic carbon and other nutrients necessary for the aquatic food web; and
7. maintain air and water temperatures around the stream.
Forested riparian buffers (a minimum 50 feet wide along intermittent streams and 100 feet wide
along perennial streams [or the full extent of the 100 -year floodplain, whichever is greater])
should be created and/or maintained along all aquatic areas. Within the watersheds of streams
supporting endangered aquatic species, we recommend undisturbed, forested buffers that are
naturally vegetated with trees, shrubs, and herbaceous vegetation and extend a minimum of
200 feet from the banks of all perennial streams and a minimum of 100 feet from the banks of
all intermittent streams, or the full extent of the 100 -year floodplain, whichever is greater.)
Impervious surfaces, ditches, pipes, roads, utility lines (sewer, water, gas, transmission, etc.), and
other infrastructures that require maintained, cleared rights-of-way and/or compromise the
functions and values of the forested buffers should not occur within these riparian areas.
Stream Channel and Bank Restoration
A natural, stable stream system is one that is able to transport a wide range of flows and
associated bed load (sediment) while maintaining channel features and neither degrading
(accelerating the erosion of banks and scour of the channel bed) nor aggrading (accelerating the
deposition of sediment within the channel). Alterations to the dimension (cross-sectional view of
the channel), pattern (the sinuosity of the channel), or profile (longitudinal slope) of the stream
channel as well as changes to streambank vegetation, floodplains, hydrology, or sediment input
can significantly alter this equilibrium. Accordingly, we recommend the following:
2

Only the absolute minimum amount of work should be done within stream channels to
accomplish necessary reconstruction. The amount of disturbance to in -stream and
riparian areas should not exceed what can be stabilized by the end of the workday.
Restoration plans should account for the constraints of the site and the opportunities to
improve stream pattern, dimension, and profile with minimal disturbance.
2. All reconstruction work should follow natural channel design methodologies that are
based on the bank -full, or channel -forming, stage of the stream. Bank -full stage
maintains the natural channel dimensions and transports the bulk of sediment over time
(Doll et al. 2003). Natural channel conditions should be identified using a reference
reach (nearby stream reaches that exemplify restoration goals). Restoration design
should match the pattern, dimension, and profile of the reference reach to ensure the
project's success. The Service is available to assist with the identification of reference
reaches.
3. All work in or adjacent to stream waters should be conducted in a dry work area to the
extent possible. Sandbags, cofferdams, bladder dams, or other diversion structures
should be used to prevent excavation in flowing water. These diversion structures should
be removed as soon as the work area is stable. When practical, a pump -around operation
shall be used to divert flow during construction.
4. Equipment should not be operated in the stream unless absolutely necessary. Machinery
should be operated from the banks in a fashion that minimizes disturbance to woody
vegetation. Equipment should be: (a) washed to remove any contaminant residue prior
to project construction, (b) in good working order, and (c) checked to ensure there are no
leaks of potential contaminants (such as oil or other lubricants) prior to and during
construction.
5. Streambanks with deep-rooted woody vegetation are the most stable, and stream
restoration efforts should incorporate the use of native vegetation adapted to the site
conditions. Biodegradable erosion -control materials may be incorporated into
bank -restoration design in order to stabilize soils as vegetation becomes established.
Live dormant stakes (such as black willow) may be used to reestablish root structure in
riparian areas. In areas where banks are severely undercut, high, and steep, whole -tree
revetment or rock may be used as a stabilization treatment (small rock, gravel, sand, and
dirt are not recommended due to their erosive nature), and it should not extend above the
bank -full elevation (the elevation of the channel where the natural floodplain begins).
Deep -rooting woody vegetation should be established along banks where any channel
work is accomplished. Tree and shrub plantings should be spaced at intervals no greater
than 10 feet along banks. Vegetated riparian zone widths should be as wide as practical
but should extend at least 30 feet from the stream channel.
6. Adequate measures to control sediment and erosion must be implemented prior to any
ground -disturbing activities in order to minimize effects on downstream aquatic
resources. In North Carolina, non -cohesive and erosion -prone soils are most common in
the felsic-crystalline terrains of the mountain and upper piedmont regions (Miller and
3

Kochel 2010). Therefore, reconstruction work should be staged such that disturbed areas
would be stabilized with seeding, mulch, and/or biodegradable (coir) erosion -control
matting prior to the end of each workday. No erosion -control matting or blankets should
contain synthetic (netting) materials. Matting should be secured in place with staples;
stakes; or, wherever possible, live stakes of native trees. If rain is expected prior to
temporary seed establishment, additional measures should be implemented to protect
water quality along slopes and overburden stockpiles (for example, stockpiles may be
covered with plastic or other geotextile material).
7. Woody debris, detritus, and other vegetative materials are the main sources of nutrients
and carbon necessary for primary productivity in stream ecosystems. Removal of this
material can impact the production of higher trophic levels, including fish. The Service
does not recommend the removal of woody debris within the stream channel or
floodplain unless it is causing a debris blockage (logjam) or will affect the ability to
achieve bank stability along a specific reach of stream. Woody debris that must be
removed should be chipped on the site.
8. At each restoration site, cross-sections (at intervals based on restoration reach size),
longitudinal profiles, and stream -pattern plans should be measured and mapped prior to
and immediately following any channel work. In addition, photographs should be taken
to document the condition of the project site prior to initiating the work and upon
completion of the work. However, since a project's restoration success does not
necessarily equate to biological success, the ecological goals of the project should be
clearly defined and assessed for improvement after construction is completed (Palmer
et al. 2005).
The Service appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments. Please contact Mr. Byron
Hamstead of our staff at 828/258-3939, Ext. 225, if you have any questions. In any future
correspondence concerning this project, please reference our Log Number 4-2-18-032.

Northern Long -Eared Bat 4(d) Rule Streamlined Consultation Form
Federal agencies should use this form for the optional streamlined consultation framework for the northern long-
eared bat (NLEB). This framework allows federal agencies to rely upon the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's
(USFWS) January 5, 2016, intra -Service Programmatic Biological Opinion (BO) on the final 4(d) rule for the
NLEB for section 7(a)(2) compliance by: (1) notifying the USFWS that an action agency will use the streamlined
framework; (2) describing the project with sufficient detail to support the required determination; and (3) enabling
the USFWS to track effects and determine if reinitiation of consultation is required per 50 CFR 402.16.
This form is not necessary if an agency determines that a proposed action will have no effect to the NLEB or if
the USFWS has concurred in writing with an agency's determination that a proposed action may affect, but is not
likely to adversely affect the NLEB (i.e., the standard informal consultation process). Actions that may cause
prohibited incidental take require separate formal consultation. Providing this information does not address
section 7(a)(2) compliance for any other listed species.

Basic Project Description (provide narrative below or attach additional information):
The Little Sebastian Stream Mitigation Project is located in Surry County, approximately 10 miles north of Elkin
and seven miles west of Dobson (Figure 1). The Project is located in the Yadkin River Basin within Cataloging
Unit 03040101 and TLW 03040101080020. The Project area includes Mill Creek and four unnamed tributaries
(Figure 2). Water quality stressors currently affecting the Project include livestock production, agricultural
production, and lack of riparian buffer. The current State classification for Mill Creek is Class C, Trout Waters Jr),
and Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW). Class C waters are protected for uses such as secondary recreation,
fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, and aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological
integrity, and agriculture. The Tr classification is intended to protect freshwaters which have conditions which shall
sustain and allow for trout propagation and survival of stocked trout on a year-round basis. An OSW classification
is intended to protect unique and special waters having excellent water quality and being of exceptional state or
national ecological or recreational significance.
The Project will include Priority I stream restoration and stream Enhancement II on nine stream reaches (JN 1-A,
JN1-B, JN2-A, JN2-B, JN3-A, JN3-B, MCI, BSI -A, BSI -B). Restoration and enhancement activities will include
constructing an E/C type stream with appropriate dimensions and pattern, reconnecting the channel to the
floodplain, and backfilling the abandoned channel. In -stream structures such as log sills and brush toes will be
installed for vertical stability and to improve habitat. Buffer improvements will filter runoff from agricultural fields,
thereby reducing nutrient and sediment loads to the channel. Livestock exclusion fence will be installed along the
easement boundary. The widening and restoration of the riparian areas will also provide wildlife corridors
throughout the project area.
Priority I Stream Restoration will include the following: reconstructing a C/E type stream, installing log structures
to provide vertical stability and to improve habitat features, constructing a stream with moderate sinuosity (1.05-
1.10), and using log structures to provide vertical stability and to improve bedform diversity and habitat features. A
new channel will be constructed within the natural valley to the north with appropriate dimensions and pattern. Log
structures will be used to provide vertical stability, assist in maintaining riffle, run and pool features and to provide
habitat features. Habitat will further be improved through buffer plantings and livestock exclusion. Restoration of
the channel will reduce sediment loads to downstream reaches by stabilizing eroding banks and improving
hydrologic function.

Enhancement II activities will include the re-establishment of a riparian buffer and live -staking the channel banks
with native vegetation. Proposed buffer activities will improve riparian areas that will filter runoff from adjacent
pastures, thereby reducing nutrient and sediment loads to the channel. Livestock exclusion fencing will be installed
per current Natural Resource Conservation Service specifications.
Two agricultural BMPs are proposed for the upper end of two reaches (BSI and JN2-A) to capture and treat
concentrated runoff prior to entering the stream channel, see Figure 2 for location.
Any tree removal due to the construction of the stream mitigation site will be limited to the area along the channel
banks. An effort will be made to conduct any tree cutting of suitable summer roosting tree species between August
1 and May 31, but will ultimately depend on the construction/contractor timeline.
The following objectives are proposed for accomplishing project goals:
a. Provide an estimated 4,653 stream mitigation units (SMUs) through Priority I restoration of approximately
2,826 linear feet (Reaches BSI -A, JN1-B, JN2-A, and JN3-B) and Enhancement II on 4,568 linear feet
(Reaches BSI -B, JN1-A, JN2-13, JN3-A, and MCI) of existing stream.
b. Restore stable channel morphology and proper sediment transport capacity.
c. Create and improve stream bed form and improve aquatic and benthic macroinvertebrate habitat.
d. Construct a floodplain bench that is accessible at the proposed bankfull channel elevation.
e. Improve channel and stream bank stabilization by integrating in -stream structures and native bank
vegetation.
f. Provide approximately 15.6 acres of riparian buffer restoration by establishing a native forested and
herbaceous riparian buffer plant community with a minimum width of 30 feet from the edge of the restored
channels. This new community will be established in conjunction with the eradication of any existing exotic
or undesirable plant species.

Dear Megan D Engel:
Thank you for your letter dated October 25, 2017, Subject: Little Sebastian
Conservation Easement, Surry County, NC. The following guidance is provided
for your information.
Projects are subject to the Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA) requirements
if they may irreversibly convert farmland (directly or indirectly) to non-
agricultural use and are completed by a federal agency or with assistance from a
federal agency. Farmland means prime or unique farmlands as defined in section
1540(c)(1) of the FPPA or farmland that is determined by the appropriate state or
unit of local government agency or agencies with concurrence of the Secretary of
Agriculture to be farmland of statewide local importance.
For the purpose of FPPA, farmland includes prime farmland, unique farmland,
and land of statewide or local importance. Farmland subject to FPPA
requirements does not have to be currently used for cropland. It can be
forestland, pastureland, cropland, or other land, but not water or urban built-up
land.
Farmland does not include land already in or committed to urban development
or water storage. Farmland already in urban development or water storage
includes all such land with a density of 30 structures per 40 -acre area. Farmland
already in urban development also includes lands identified as urbanized area
(UA) on the Census Bureau Map, or as urban area mapped with a tint overprint
on the United States Geological Survey (USGS) topographical maps, or as
urban -built-up on the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)
Important Farmland Maps.
The area in question meets one or more of the above criteria for Farmland.
Farmland area will be affected or converted. Enclosed is the Farmland
Conversion Impact Rating form AD 1006 with PARTS II, IV and V completed by
NRCS. The corresponding agency will need to complete the evaluation,
according to the Code of Federal Regulation 7CFR 658, Farmland Protection
Policy Act.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service
is an agency of the Department of Agriculture's
Natural Resources mission.

Asheville, NC 28801-5006
Dear Mr. William Elliott,
Resource Environmental Solutions (RES) is pleased to present this Request for a Preliminary Jurisdictional
Determination for Little Sebastian and Gideon Stream Mitigation Sites located in Dobson, Surry County, North
Carolina. As part of this scope of work, RES is submitting this request to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(Corps) for a confirmation of the limits of Waters of the U.S. on the subject site.
The Little Sebastian Site was contracted through Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) in response to RFP
#16-006993 for the Yadkin River Basin (HUC 03040101, TLW 03040101080020) to provide cool water
stream mitigation units. The adjacent Gideon Site will be developed as a stream mitigation bank site. The two
sites will be developed through separate banking instruments. Altogether, the projects provide an opportunity
to restore and enhance over 10,000 linear feet of cool water stream and riparian corridor.
The purpose of the two sites is to generate mitigation and ecological benefit in HUC 03040101 of the Yadkin
River Basin. The stream channels on the site have been classified using the North Carolina Division of Water
Resources methodology. Current stream conditions along the proposed reaches demonstrate habitat
degradation as a result of impacts from livestock and a lack of riparian buffers. The restoration approach for
this project will be a combination of restoration and enhancement. Proposed treatment activities may range
from minor bank grading and planting to re-establishing stable planform and hydraulic geometry. The objective
of this approach is to design a geomorphically stable channel that provides habitat improvements and ties into
the existing landscape. Within the boundaries of the proposed project, three jurisdictional wetlands are present.
The Restoration Plan for both sites is currently in development.

Good afternoon Paul,
FHWA has reviewed and approved the CEs associated with the 3 projects listed below.
Please see the attached approved CE signature sheets.
As you saw in previous emails, FHWA has notified USFWS of our intent to utilize the NLEB 4(d)
rule for each of these projects. Please ensure the appropriate documentation from those
earlier emails is retained in each respective project file.
Additionally, each of the CEs includes documentation that explains compliance with the
Uniform Act has been satisfied. Please ensure each project file contains documentation that
demonstrates the compliance efforts. Excerpt from the CEs —
"Notification of fair market value of the property and the lack of condemnation authority was
completed by RES. The
landowner was notified of fair market value and condemnation authority was listed in the
option agreement."
Have a great weekend,
Donnie

STEPS IN THE PROCESSING THE FARMLAND AND CONVERSION IMPACT RATING FORM
Step 1 - Federal agencies (or Federally funded projects) involved in proposed projects that may convert farmland, as defined in the Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA)
to nonagricultural uses, will initially complete Parts I and III of the form. For Corridor type projects, the Federal agency shall use form NRCS-CPA-106 in place
of form AD -1006. The Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) process may also be accessed by visiting the FPPA website, http://fppa.nres.usda.gov/lesa/.
Step 2 - Originator (Federal Agency) will send one original copy of the form together with appropriate scaled maps indicating location(s)of project site(s), to the Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) local Field Office or USDA Service Center and retain a copy for their files. (NRCS has offices in most counties in the
U.S. The USDA Office Information Locator may be found at http://offices.usda.gov/scripts/ndISAPI.dll/oip public/USA map, or the offices can usually be
found in the Phone Book under U.S. Government, Department of Agriculture. A list of field offices is available from the NRCS State Conservationist and State
Office in each State.)
Step 3 - NRCS will, within 10 working days after receipt of the completed form, make a determination as to whether the site(s) of the proposed project contains prime,
unique, statewide or local important farmland. (When a site visit or land evaluation system design is needed, NRCS will respond within 30 working days.
Step 4 - For sites where farmland covered by the FPPA will be converted by the proposed project, NRCS will complete Parts II, IV and V of the form.
Step 5 - NRCS will return the original copy of the form to the Federal agency involved in the project, and retain a file copy for NRCS records.
Step 6 - The Federal agency involved in the proposed project will complete Parts VI and VII of the form and return the form with the final selected site to the servicing
NRCS office.
Step 7 - The Federal agency providing financial or technical assistance to the proposed project will make a determination as to whether the proposed conversion is consistent
with the FPPA.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE FARMLAND CONVERSION IMPACT RATING FORM
(For Federal Agency)
Part I: When completing the "County and State" questions, list all the local governments that are responsible for local land
use controls where site(s) are to be evaluated.
Part III: When completing item B (Total Acres To Be Converted Indirectly), include the following
1. Acres not being directly converted but that would no longer be capable of being farmed after the conversion, because the
conversion would restrict access to them or other major change in the ability to use the land for agriculture.
2. Acres planned to receive services from an infrastructure project as indicated in the project justification (e.g. highways,
utilities planned build out capacity) that will cause a direct conversion.
Part VI: Do not complete Part VI using the standard format if a State or Local site assessment is used. With local and NRCS
assistance, use the local Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA).
1. Assign the maximum points for each site assessment criterion as shown in § 658.5(b) of CFR. In cases of corridor -type
project such as transportation, power line and flood control, criteria #5 and #6 will not apply and will, be weighted zero,
however, criterion #8 will be weighed a maximum of 25 points and criterion #11 a maximum of 25 points.
2. Federal agencies may assign relative weights among the 12 site assessment criteria other than those shown on the
FPPA rule after submitting individual agency FPPA policy for review and comment to NRCS. In all cases where other
weights are assigned, relative adjustments must be made to maintain the maximum total points at 160. For project sites
where the total points equal or exceed 160, consider alternative actions, as appropriate, that could reduce adverse
impacts (e.g. Alternative Sites, Modifications or Mitigation).
Part VII: In computing the "Total Site Assessment Points" where a State or local site assessment is used and the total
maximum number of points is other than 160, convert the site assessment points to a base of 160.
Example: if the Site Assessment maximum is 200 points, and the alternative Site "A" is rated 180 points:
Total points assigned Site A 180 X 160 = 144 points for Site A
Maximum points possible = 200
For assistance in completing this form or FPPA process, contact the local NRCS Field Office or USDA Service Center.
NRCS employees, consult the FPPA Manual and/or policy for additional instructions to complete the AD -1006 form.

GOVERNMENT RECORDS SEARCHED /DATA CURRENCY TRACKING
SEMS -ARCHIVE (Superfund Enterprise Management System Archive) tracks sites that have no further interest under
the Federal Superfund Program based on available information. The list was formerly known as the CERCLIS-NFRAP,
renamed to SEMS ARCHIVE by the EPA in 2015. EPA may perform a minimal level of assessment work at a site while
it is archived if site conditions change and/or new information becomes available. Archived sites have been removed
and archived from the inventory of SEMS sites. Archived status indicates that, to the best of EPA's knowledge,
assessment at a site has been completed and that EPA has determined no further steps will be taken to list the
site on the National Priorities List (NPL), unless information indicates this decision was not appropriate or
other considerations require a recommendation for listing at a later time. The decision does not necessarily mean
that there is no hazard associated with a given site; it only means that. based upon available information, the
location is not judged to be potential NPL site.

US BROWNFIELDS: A Listing of Brownfields Sites
Brownfields are real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence
or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. Cleaning up and reinvesting in these
properties takes development pressures off of undeveloped, open land, and both improves and protects the environment.
Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES) stores information reported by EPA Brownfields
grant recipients on brownfields properties assessed or cleaned up with grant funding as well as information on
Targeted Brownfields Assessments performed by EPA Regions. A listing of ACRES Brownfield sites is obtained from
Cleanups in My Community. Cleanups in My Community provides information on Brownfields properties for which information
is reported back to EPA, as well as areas served by Brownfields grant programs.

EPA WATCH LIST: EPA WATCH LIST
EPA maintains a "Watch List' to facilitate dialogue between EPA, state and local environmental agencies on enforcement
matters relating to facilities with alleged violations identified as either significant or high priority. Being
on the Watch List does not mean that the facility has actually violated the law only that an investigation by
EPA or a state or local environmental agency has led those organizations to allege that an unproven violation
has in fact occurred. Being on the Watch List does not represent a higher level of concern regarding the alleged
violations that were detected, but instead indicates cases requiring additional dialogue between EPA, state and
local agencies - primarily because of the length of time the alleged violation has gone unaddressed or unresolved.

contains a wide variety of sites. Some properties are heavily contaminated while others were contaminated but
have since been cleaned up. Still others have not been fully investigated yet, and may require little or no remediation.
Inclusion in the 2020 Universe does not necessarily imply failure on the part of a facility to meet its RCRA obligations.

industry codes and standards, requires companies of all sizes that use certain flammable and toxic substances
to develop a Risk Management Program, which includes a(n): Hazard assessment that details the potential effects
of an accidental release, an accident history of the last five years, and an evaluation of worst-case and alternative
accidental releases; Prevention program that includes safety precautions and maintenance, monitoring, and employee
training measures; and Emergency response program that spells out emergency health care, employee training measures

A complete administrative case listing from the FIFRA/TSCA Tracking System (FTTS) for all ten EPA regions. The
information was obtained from the National Compliance Database (NCDB). NCDB supports the implementation of FIFRA
(Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act) and TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act). Some EPA regions
are now closing out records. Because of that, and the fact that some EPA regions are not providing EPA Headquarters
with updated records, it was decided to create a HIST FTTS database. It included records that may not be included

UMTRA: Uranium Mill Tailings Sites
Uranium ore was mined by private companies for federal government use in national defense programs. When the mills
shut down, large piles of the sand -like material (mill tailings) remain after uranium has been extracted from
the ore. Levels of human exposure to radioactive materials from the piles are low; however, in some cases tailings
were used as construction materials before the potential health hazards of the tailings were recognized.

EDR Exclusive Records
EDR MGP: EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plants
The EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plant Database includes records of coal gas plants (manufactured gas plants)
compiled by EDR's researchers. Manufactured gas sites were used in the United States from the 1800's to 1950's
to produce a gas that could be distributed and used as fuel. These plants used whale oil, rosin, coal, or a mixture
of coal, oil, and water that also produced a significant amount of waste. Many of the byproducts of the gas production,
such as coal tar (oily waste containing volatile and non-volatile chemicals), sludges, oils and other compounds
are potentially hazardous to human health and the environment. The byproduct from this process was frequently
disposed of directly at the plant site and can remain or spread slowly, serving as a continuous source of soil
and groundwater contamination.

EDR's GeoCheck Physical Setting Source Addendum is provided to assist the environmental professional in
forming an opinion about the impact of potential contaminant migration.
Assessment of the impact of contaminant migration generally has two principal investigative components:
1. Groundwater flow direction, and
2. Groundwater flow velocity.
Groundwater flow direction may be impacted by surface topography, hydrology, hydrogeology, characteristics
of the soil, and nearby wells. Groundwater flow velocity is generally impacted by the nature of the
geologic strata.
TC5036200.2s Page A-1

GEOCHECK®- PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCE SUMMARY
GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTION INFORMATION
Groundwater flow direction for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional
using site-specific well data. If such data is not reasonably ascertainable, it may be necessary to rely on other
sources of information, such as surface topographic information, hydrologic information, hydrogeologic data
collected on nearby properties, and regional groundwater flow information (from deep aquifers).
TOPOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Surface topography may be indicative of the direction of surficial groundwater flow. This information can be used to
assist the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the impact of nearby contaminated properties or,
should contamination exist on the target property, what downgradient sites might be impacted.

HYDROLOGIC INFORMATION
Surface water can act as a hydrologic barrier to groundwater flow. Such hydrologic information can be used to assist
the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the impact of nearby contaminated properties or, should
contamination exist on the target property, what downgradient sites might be impacted.

GEOCHECK®- PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCE SUMMARY
GROUNDWATER FLOW VELOCITY INFORMATION
Groundwater flow velocity information for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional
using site specific geologic and soil strata data. If such data are not reasonably ascertainable, it may be necessary
to rely on other sources of information, including geologic age identification, rock stratigraphic unit and soil
characteristics data collected on nearby properties and regional soil information. In general, contaminant plumes
move more quickly through sandy -gravelly types of soils than silty -clayey types of soils.
GEOLOGIC INFORMATION IN GENERAL AREA OF TARGET PROPERTY
Geologic information can be used by the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the relative speed
at which contaminant migration may be occurring.
