The Strawberry Hill Mitigation Project is located within a mostly rural
watershed in Johnston County in Smithfield, NC at the crossroads of
Yelverton Grove Road and Brogden Road. The Project lies within the
Neuse River Basin, North Carolina United States Geological Survey (USGS)
8-digit Cataloguing Unit 03020201 (Neuse 01) and 14-digit hydrologic unit
code (HUC) 03020201140010, a NC Division of Mitigation Services (DMS)
Targeted Local Watershed (TLW) and the Division of Water Resources
(NCDWR) sub -basin 03-04-02 (Figure 1). This Project was selected by
DMS as a full delivery project to provide stream mitigation units and buffer
credits in the Neuse 01. The Project proposes to restore 3,719 linear feet
(LF) that will provide water quality benefit for 383 acres of drainage area.
Additionally, the Project will restore and preserve riparian buffer area within
the project area, which will provide 656,593.451 buffer credits for the
Neuse 01 watershed. Also, notably, the Project is in very close proximity
(approximately 0.4 miles) to the RES Polecat Stream Mitigation Bank Site,
offering even more functional uplift to the local watershed.
The Project area, in whole, is comprised of a 22.12-acre easement
involving two unnamed tributaries to Polecat Branch, which eventually
drains to the Neuse River. One of the tributary streams, and its associated
ditches, will not be subjected to stream mitigation and will only be utilized
for buffer mitigation. The stream mitigation component of the Project
involves one tributary, totaling 3,267 existing LF.
