Please give a brief project description below.*

The Green Mesa Mitigation Site ("the Project") is located in Yadkin County,
approximately two miles south of Boonville, NC. Water quality stressors
currently affecting the Project include livestock production, agricultural
production, and lack of riparian buffer. The Project presents 9,164 linear
feet (LF) of stream restoration, enhancement, and preservation,
generating 3,352 Warm Stream Mitigation Units (SMU) along five unnamed
tributaries.
The Project is located in the Yadkin River Basin within Cataloging Unit
03040101, Hydrologic 14-digit USGS HUC 03040101130010, and NCDWR
sub -basin 03-07-02. This HUC ultimately drains into Deep Creek, which has
a State classification as Class C waters (NCDWQ 2011).
Consisting of agricultural fields, livestock pastures and wooded areas, the
Project's total easement area is approximately 32.45 acres within the
overall drainage area of 1,011 acres. 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.
Please give a couple of dates you are available for a meeting.
