RE: Meadow Spring Year 2 Monitoring Report (SAW-2016-01989)

Ms. Dailey,

Please find attached the Meadow Spring Year 2 Monitoring Report. In Year 2, 16 of the 18 fixed
vegetation plots met the 320 stems per acre success criteria. The three random vegetation plots
also met the 320 stems per acre success criteria. Bankfull events were recorded on both stage
recorders. Seven of the 11 groundwater wells met success with a hydroperiod range of 4 to 81
percent. The one vegetation problem area onsite is a 1.70-acre low stem density area in and
around Vegetation Plot 16 and 18, which will be replanted in early 2020. This area experiences
flooding up to seven feet deep during the year. One of the three stream problem areas reported
in MY1 was repaired during MY2. The rill that formed off the filled ditch in Wetland B was fixed in
October 2020. RES will repair the other two areas this dormant season with brush mattresses,
livestakes, and hand grading.

On December 24, 2019, the IRT provided comments on the Meadow Spring Year 1 Monitoring
Report. Please find those comments below with RES’ responses in blue.

1. A general concern is that monitoring was performed in December. The Johnston County
NRCS growing season ends November 6. I’m a little surprised that stem species in the
random plots were identifiable with leaf off;
Year 1 vegetation monitoring was performed in December as that was 180 days after
vegetation plot setup in accordance with the 2016 Wilmington District Monitoring Guidence.
Year 2 vegetation monitoring was performed in October. As a general note, RES identifies
tree species without leaves on almost every as-built monitoring event therefore confident in
this practice.

2. Also a concern is that the wetland groundwater gauge data collection started in July. This
delay is reflected in the results, as only 2 of 11 gauges met the 12% success criteria and 3 of
4 reestablishment gauges had a 2% hydroperiod;
In Year 2, 7 of 11 gauges met the 12% success criteria with every gauge improving from year
one except for GW1.

3. Several cross sections showed dimension changes, with 7 cross sections downcutting in
the 6 months since as-built;
Cross sections remained stable in Year 2 with only minor dimension changes from Year 1.

2
4. As Ryan notes in the cover letter, there were 2 VPAs that were replanted and 3 SPAs that
were repaired. A bit troubling at the number of problem areas, but glad they were noted and
addressed quickly;
RES attributes the problem areas to livestake failure. RES performed successful
supplemental livestake planting in March 2020. Additionally, RES will finish completing
stream and vegetation problem area repairs this dormant season.

5. Based on all of the above bullets, it’s difficult to evaluate an initial trend towards project
success. MY2 will have additional scrutiny and DWR will likely request a site visit.
Noted. RES feels that this year shows a trend towards project success and believe that the
project will continue this trend next year.

6. During the as-built site walk, privet and multiflora rose were present in some of the
enhancement and preservation areas. Was any invasive management completed during
MY1; and
Invasive treatment was performed in MY1 and again in MY2.

7. General request for future RES monitoring reports – Please include a sentence or two
summarizing annual visual assessments of the site boundary (and crossings) and
confirmation of no encroachments.
These sentences were added to the monitoring report.

RES is requesting a 10% stream credit release (544.00 SMUs) and a 10% wetland credit release
(1.44 WMUs) for the completion of the Year 2 monitoring report. Please see enclosed the credit
release schedule and an updated credit ledger.

Thank you,

Meadow Spring 1 Year 2 Monitoring Report
Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2020
1.0 Project Summary

1.1 Project Location and Description

The Meadow Spring Mitigation Site (Site) is located within a watershed dominated by agricultural land use
in Johnston County, North Carolina, approximately three miles north of Smithfield. The project streams
and wetlands were significantly impacted by channelization, impoundment, and cattle access. The project
involves the restoration and protection of streams in the Neuse River watershed and the restoration,
enhancement, and preservation of adjacent riparian wetlands. The purpose of this mitigation site is to
restore, enhance and preserve a stream/wetland complex located within the Neuse River Basin. The Site
was designed in concurrence with the Meadow Spring Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation Bank.
The Site lies within USGS Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 03020201.

The total easement area is 60.93 acres. The wooded areas along the easement corridor designated for
restoration activities are classified as mixed hardwoods. Invasive species were present throughout the
wooded areas. Restored channels were both laterally and vertically unstable, impacted by cattle, have
disturbed riparian buffers, and did not fully support aquatic life. Previous stream conditions along the
restoration reaches exhibited habitat degradation because of impacts from livestock and impoundment to
promote agricultural activities.

The Meadow Spring Site includes stream Priority I/II Restoration, Enhancement Levels I II and III,
Preservation and wetland re-habilitation, re-establishment, enhancement and preservation. Priority I
Restoration reaches incorporate the construction of a single-thread meandering channel, with parameters
based on data taken from the reference site described above, published empirical relationships, NC Coastal
Plain Regional Curves, and hydrologic and hydraulic analyses.

Wetland re-establishment occurred adjacent to Priority I Restoration reaches. The restoration approach was
to reconnect the floodplain wetlands to the stream, fill existing ditches, rough the floodplain surface, and
plant native tree and shrub species commonly found in small stream swamp ecosystems. The wetland
enhancement treatment included livestock exclusion, improving hydrology via pond removal and ditch
plugging, and planting native tree and shrub species.

The Site will be monitored on a regular basis and a physical inspection of the Site will be conducted at a
minimum of twice per year throughout the seven-year post-construction monitoring period, or until
performance standards are met. These site inspections will identify site components and features that require
routine maintenance. The measure of stream restoration success will be documented by bankfull flows and
no change in stream channel classification. Sand bed channels are dynamic and minor adjustments to
dimension and profile are expected. The measure of vegetative success for the Site will be the survival of
at least 210 seven-year old planted trees per acre with an average height of 10 feet at the end of year seven
of the monitoring period.

Upon approval for closeout by the Interagency Review Team (IRT), the site will be transferred to the North
Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation (NCWHF). The NCWHF will be responsible for periodic inspection
of the Site to ensure that restrictions required in the Conservation Easement or the deed restriction
document(s) are upheld. Endowment funds required to uphold easement and deed restrictions will be
negotiated prior to site transfer to the responsible party.

Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2020
1.2 Project Goals and Objectives

The 2010 Neuse RBRP identified several restoration needs for the entire Neuse River Basin, as well as for
HUC 03020201, specifically. The Site is in HUC 03020201100050 (Neuse River), a Targeted Local
Watershed (TLW) that exhibits both the need and opportunity for wetland, stream, and riparian buffer
restoration. The watershed includes 52 square miles of area, with 31 percent of the 106 stream miles lacking
wooded buffers. Thirty-seven percent of the watershed is used for agricultural purposes with 13 animal
operations occurring in the watershed. Impervious surface near the town of Smithfield is increasing and set
to surpass the critical seven percent benchmark (NCDMS 2010).

The Site was identified as a stream and buffer restoration opportunity to improve water quality, habitat, and
hydrology within the Neuse River Basin. This project is intended to provide Stream Mitigation Units to be
applied as compensatory mitigation for unavoidable authorized impacts to waters of the US under Section
404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344) and support the overall goal of “no net loss” of aquatic
resources in the United States. The Site is located within the downstream end of HUC 03020201 and
includes an unnamed tributary that directly discharges into the Neuse River. Many of the project design
goals and objectives, including restoration of riparian buffers to filter runoff from agricultural operations
and improve terrestrial habitat, and construction of in-stream structures to improve habitat diversity, will
address the degraded water quality and nutrient input from farming that were identified as major watershed
stressors in the 2010 Neuse RBRP.

The project goals will be addressed through the following project objectives:
• Design and construct stable stream channels with appropriate pattern, dimension, and profile based
on reference reach conditions.
• Exclude livestock permanently from streams and their associated buffers as well as surrounding
wetlands.
• Reduce bank height ratios to less than 1.2 and increase entrenchment ratio to greater than 2.2 in
accordance to the Wilmington District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update
Guidance.
• Increase forested riparian buffers to at least fifty feet on both sides of the channel along the project
reaches with an appropriate riparian plant community.
• Re-establish, rehabilitate, and enhance riparian wetlands by raising stream bed elevations, plugging
surface ditches, and planting native wetland plant species in order to maintain appropriate soil series
saturation/hydroperiod thresholds during the growing season.
• Preserve and enhance of hydrology in existing riparian wetland seeps.
• Establish a permanent conservation easement on the Site.
• Remove invasive species from the riparian buffer and wetland areas to support the colonization and
survival of native riparian buffer species.

1.3 Project Success Criteria

The Site follows the USACE 2003 Stream Mitigation Guidelines and the “Wilmington District Stream and
Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update” dated October 24, 2016. Cross section and vegetation plot data
will be collected in Years 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. Stream and wetland hydrology data and visual monitoring
will be reported annually.

Meadow Spring 3 Year 2 Monitoring Report
Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2020
Stream Success Criteria

Four bankfull 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.

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 2.2 within restored reaches.

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.

Wetland Success Criteria

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has a current WETs table for Johnston County upon
which to base a normal rainfall amount and average growing season. The closest comparable data station
was determined to be the WETS station for Smithfield, NC. The growing season for Johnston County is
233 days long, extending from March 18 to November 6, and is based on a daily minimum temperature
greater than 28 degrees Fahrenheit occurring in five of ten years.

Based upon field observation across the site, the NRCS mapping units show a good correlation to actual
site conditions in areas of the site. Mitigation guidance for soils in the Coastal Plain suggests a hydroperiod
for the Bibb soil of 12-16 percent of the growing season. The hydrology success criterion for the Site is to
restore the water table so that it will remain continuously within 12 inches of the soil surface for at least 12
percent of the growing season (approximately 27 days) at each groundwater gauge location. Based on the
extensive management history of the Site and soil compaction, RES expects a slighty reduced hydroperiod
in the monitoring years 1 and 2.
Vegetation Success Criteria

Specific and measurable success criteria for plant density within the riparian buffers on the site follow
IRT Guidance. Vegetation monitoring plots are a minimum of 0.02 acres in size and cover a minimum of
two percent of the planted area. Vegetation monitoring shall occur annually between July 15 and leaf drop.
The interim measures of vegetative success for the site are the survival of at least 320 planted three-year
old trees per acre at the end of Year 3, 260 five-year old trees that are at least 7 feet tall at the end of Year
5, and the final vegetative success criteria is 210 trees per acre with an average height of ten feet at the
end of Year 7. Volunteer trees are to be counted, identified to species, and included in the yearly
monitoring reports, but do not count towards the success criteria of total planted stems.

1.4 Project Components

The project area is comprised of an easement area along an unnamed tributary to the Neuse River. The
easement is separated by an existing power easement and three agricultural crossings. The project is divided
into northern and southern portions by the existing power easement. The northern portion of the project
includes Reaches S1, S2, S5, S6A and S6B. The southern portion of the project includes Reaches S7, S9,
S11, S12 and S13. The stream and wetland mitigation components are summarized below.

1.5 Design/Approach

Stream
The Meadow Spring Site includes Priority I/Priority II Restoration, Enhancement Level I, Enhancement
Level II, Enhancement Level III. Priority I Restoration reaches incorporate the design of a single-thread
meandering channel, with parameters based on data taken from the reference site described above,
published empirical relationships, NC Coastal Plain Regional Curves, and hydrologic and hydraulic
analyses. As a result of the restoration of planform and dimension, frequent overbank flows and a restored
riparian buffer will provide the appropriate hydrology and sediment transport throughout this coastal plain
watershed. All non-vegetated areas within the easement were planted with native vegetation and any areas
of invasive species were removed and/or treated.

• Reach S1 (STA 03+50 to STA 06+00) – Reach beginning at northwestern limits of the project
flowing southeast to Reach S2 totaling 250 linear feet of Enhancement Level II. Row crops and
active pasture were located adjacent to the reach. Enhancement involved revegetating the buffer
with native vegetation.
• Reach S2 (STA 06+00 to STA 11+00) – Reach begins at the downstream end of Reach S1 and
flows southeast through what was active pasture to Reach S6A. Reach S2 totals 500 linear feet of
Enhancement Level I. Active pasture and row crops used to surround this reach. Enhancement
involved revegetating the buffer and stream stabilization of localized erosion with the installation
of log cross vanes and sills.
• Reach S5 (STA 00+76 to STA 03+07) – Reach begins north of Reach S6A and flows south through
active pasture to a confluence with Reach S6A totaling 231 linear feet of Priority I and II
Restoration. Active pasture and maintained lawn used to surround this reach. Restoration included
meandering the channel within the valley, backfilling the old stream, reconnecting to its floodplain,
and restoring hydrology to drained wetlands.
• Reach S6A (STA 11+00 to STA 24+50) – Reach begins at the downstream end of Reach S2 and
flows east through what was active pasture, flows adjacent to a farm pond and ends at a confluence
with Reach S5. Reach S6A totals 1,350 linear feet of Priority I Restoration. Restoration included
meandering channel though the natural valley, backfilling the old channel, reconnecting to its
floodplain, removing the old dam, and restoring hydrology to drained wetlands.
• Reach S6B – Section 1 (STA 24+50 to STA 36+26) – Reach begins at the confluence of Reach
S5 and S6A flowing east to the second section of Reach S6B. Reach S6B-Section 1 totals 1,176
linear feet of Priority I Restoration. Restoration included meandering the channel within the valley,
backfilling the old stream, reconnecting to its floodplain, and restoring hydrology to drained
wetlands.
• Reach S6B – Section 2 (STA 36+26 to STA 37+93) – Reach begins at the downstream end of
Reach 6B-Section 1 and flows east to the Duke Energy right-of-way. Reach S6B-Section 2 totals
167 linear feet of Enhancement Level I. Enhancement included stabilization of localized erosion
by installing log sills, increasing radius of curvature, regrading point bars, removal of invasive
vegetation, and revegetating the buffer.
• Reach S7 (STA 38+80 to STA 53+80) – Reach beginning downstream of the Duke Energy right-
of-way and flows south to Reach S9 totaling 1,430 linear feet of Enhancement Level I. A 70-linear
foot easement break is located in this reach to accommodate a proposed farm crossing. Hardwood
forests and active pasture are located adjacent to the reach. Enhancement included stabilization of
localized erosion by installing log vanes, log sills, brush toes, and regrading point bars. As well as
removing dense areas of invasive vegetation and supplementing planting in its place.

Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2020
• Reach S9 (STA 53+80 to STA 60+55) – Reach beginning at the downstream end of Reach S7 and
flowing south to Reach S11 totaling 675 linear feet of Enhancement Level III. Hardwood forests
and active hog lagoons are located adjacent to the reach. Enhancement included invasive treatment
and supplemental planting.
• Reach S11 (STA 60+55 to STA 71+00) – Reach beginning at the downstream end of Reach S9
and flows southeast to Reach S12 totaling 1,045 linear feet of Priority I Restoration. Hardwood
forests and grassed fields were located adjacent to the reach. Restoration included meandering the
channel within the valley, backfilling the old channel, reconnecting to its floodplain, and improving
hydrology to drained wetlands.
• Reach S12 (STA 71+00 to STA 74+80) – Reach beginning at the downstream end of Reach S11
and flows southeast toward the Neuse River floodway totaling 380 linear feet of Preservation.
Hardwood forests are located adjacent to the reach. Preservation included invasive treatment and
buffer/stream protection.
• Reach S13 (STA 9+69 to STA 14+23) - Reach beginning downstream of the large wetland slough
along the Neuse River floodplain totaling 454 linear feet of Preservation. Preservation included
invasive treatment and buffer/stream protection.

Wetland
The Meadow Spring Site offers a total ecosystem restoration opportunity. As such, the wetland restoration
and enhancement are closely tied to the stream restoration. The Site provides 14.41 WMUs through a
combination of wetland re-establishment, rehabilitation, and enhancement.
Because of the sites observed soil characteristics and landscape position, a combination of wetland re-
establishment, rehabilitation, and enhancement was incorporated. In wetlands WH, the non-jurisdictional
area, hydrologic restoration, at a credit ratio of 1:1, was accomplished by plugging the existing incised
channel to restrict drainage and allowing a natural hydroperiod to return. In addition, re-constructing a
stream channel at a higher bed elevation in the natural valley, backfilling to create shallow depressions
within the old channel, and the removal of spoil from pond excavation along the floodplains aids in the
restoration of a natural floodplain surface relative to the surrounding landscape. Due to compaction and
long-term agricultural use, a shallow ripping of the surface along the contour to a depth of eight to ten
inches creates adequate porosity for infiltration and storage, provides microtopographic relief, and should
improve vegetative survival and growth.
As part of the wetland re-establishment in wetland WI, at a credit ratio of 2:1, the pond was removed. The
construction of a farm pond has altered surface drainage and placed spoil across the floodplain. The stream
was reconnected to the floodplain and in addition to out of bank events the large perennial spring serves as
a source for hydrology for the re-established wetlands. Retention and storage within the floodplain has
returned to a natural state having an increased hydroperiod.
In wetland WF-B, a credit ratio of 3:1 was implemented for wetland enhancement. This wetland has been
impacted by channel incision and active management for agriculture in the past. The wetland mitigation
treatment consisted of reconnecting the stream to the floodplain and replanting disturbed areas. These
activities result in a much healthier, better functioning wetland.
In wetland WG, the large disturbed Neuse River floodplain area, a credit ratio of 3:1 was implemented for
wetland enhancement in the areas that are planted (WG-A) and an enhancement credit ratio of 5:1 in the
areas not planted (WG-B). This wetland has been actively managed for agriculture and waterfowl through
drainage manipulations and tree clearing. The wetland mitigation treatment was primarily re-planting the
disturbed areas, plugging the main ditch, and removing existing berms within the wetland. These activities
result in a large floodplain slough with a diversity of microhabitats.

1.6 Construction and As-Built Conditions

Stream construction and planting was completed in June 2019. The Meadow Spring Mitigation Site was
built to design plans and guidelines. A redline version of the as-built survey is included with the sealed plat
in the As-Built Baseline Monitoring Report. Project credits are based on design centerline, but as-built
stream lengths are shown on Table 1.

1.7 Year 2 Monitoring Performance (MY2)

The Meadow Spring Year 2 Monitoring activities were performed in September 2020. All MY2 data is
present below and in the appendices. The Site is on track to meeting vegetation, stream, and wetland interim
success criteria.

Vegetation

Monitoring of the 18 permanent vegetation plots and three random vegetation plots was completed during
September 2020. Vegetation data are in Appendix C, associated photos are in Appendix B, and plot
locations are in Appendix B. MY2 monitoring data indicates that 19 of the 21 plots are exceeding the
interim success criteria of 320 planted stems per acre. Planted stem densities ranged from 243 to 1,093
planted stems per acre with a mean of 605 planted stems per acre across all the plots. Vegetation Plot 16
and 18 did not meet the success criteria with 243 stems per acre each. A total of 22 species were documented
within the plots. Volunteer stems were noted in four plots. The average height in the plots was 3.2 feet.

Visual assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is
becoming well established throughout the project. A few small areas of re-sprouted Chinese privet observed
in 2019 in the wooded section of the easement were treated in early 2020 and will continue as needed
throughout the monitoring period. Visual assessments of the easement boundary found no encroachments
or evidence of cattle entry.

RES performed supplemental plantings in March and April 2020. The supplemental planting included
planting 1,300 bareroot trees in areas where vegetation plots were less than 600 stems per acre in MY1.
RES also performed a supplemental livestake planting of about 9,000 livestakes. The areas in and around
VP16 and VP18 (1.70 acres) will be replanted in early 2020. This area experiences flooding up to seven
feet deep so RES will plant species tolerant to flooded conditions. RES also plans to supplemental plant a
few other areas onsite where plots still met success but only marginally.

Stream Geomorphology

Geomorphology data for MY2 was collected during July 2020. Summary tables and cross section plots are
in Appendix D. Overall, the MY2 cross sections relatively match the as-built conditions. Minor adjustments
are expected during the first few years after construction. In MY1, Cross Sections 2, 4, 7, and 18
experienced about one foot of change in dimension. These areas did not change much in MY2. Bank height
ratios remain less than 1.2 and entrenchment ratios greater than 2.2 on restoration reaches.

Visual assessment of the stream channel was performed to document signs of instability, such as eroding
banks, structural instability, or excessive sedimentation. The channel is transporting sediment as designed
and will continue to be monitored for aggradation and degradation. The problem areas along the bottom of
S2 and throughout S6A were reported again in MY2. They are a series of eroded banks on meander bends
and around structures. These banks will be hand graded back, repaired with brush mattresses, and the
livestakes will be replanted this dormant season. The downstream of Cross Section 8 will be graded to a

Meadow Spring 8 Year 2 Monitoring Report
Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2020
3:1 slope and matting and livestakes will be added to protect it from future heavy flows. These areas are
shown on Figure 2 and in Appendix B. The rill that formed off of the plugged ditch in Wetland B was
repaired in October 2020 using straw bales and will be livestaked this dormant season. Additionally, the
brush toe directly below the culvert on S7 was repaired in October 2020.

Stream Hydrology

Two stage recorders were installed in June 2019 to document bankfull events. One stage recorder on Reach
S6B and one stage recorder on Reach S11. The stage recorder on Reach S6B recorded five bankfull events
in MY2 with the highest being 0.75 feet above top of bank. The stage recorder on Reach S11 recorded 12
bankfull events with the highest being 11 feet above top of bank. Reach S11 experiences backwater from
the Neuse River and recorded multiple bankfull events greater than five feet above top of bank. Stage
recorder locations can be found on Figure 2 and associated data is in Appendix E.

Wetland Hydrology

MY2 data showed 7 of the 11 groundwater wells met the 12 percent hydroperiod success criteria.
Hydroperiods ranged from 4 to 81 percent with the reference well documenting a 5 percent hydroperiod.
Compared to MY1, every well improved in hydroperiod except Groundwater Well 1. RES expects the
hydroperiods to continue to increase in subsequent years. Groundwater well locations can be found on
Figure 2 and the data is in Appendix E.

2.0 Methods

Stream monitoring was conducted using a Topcon GTS-312 Total Station. Three-dimensional coordinates
associated with cross-section data were collected in the field (NAD83 State Plane feet FIPS 3200).
Morphological data were collected at 24 cross-sections. Survey data were imported into CAD, ArcGIS®,
and Microsoft Excel® for data processing and analysis. The stage recorders include an automatic pressure
transducer set in PVC piping in the channel. The elevation of the bed and top of bank at each stage recorder
location was recorded to be able to document presence of water in the channel and out of bank events.
Visual observations (i.e. wrack or debris lines) will also be used to document out of bank events.

Vegetation success is being monitored at 18 permanent monitoring plots and three random monitoring plots.
Vegetation plot monitoring follows the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, version 4.2
(Lee et al. 2008) and includes analysis of species composition and density of planted species. Data are
processed using the CVS data entry tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently marked
with PVC at the origin and metal conduit at the other corners. Photos of each plot are to be taken from the
origin each monitoring year. The random plots are to be collected in locations where there are no permanent
vegetation plots. Random plots will most likely be collected in the form of 100 square meter belt transects
with variable dimensions. Tree species and height will be recorded for each planted stem and the transects
will be mapped and new locations will be monitored in subsequent years.

Wetland hydrology is monitored to document success in wetland restoration and enhancement areas where
hydrology was affected. This is accomplished with 11 automatic pressure transducer gauges (located in
groundwater wells) that record daily groundwater levels. Ten have been installed within the wetland
crediting area and one within reference wetland areas. One automatic pressure transducer is installed above
ground for use as a barometric reference. Gauges are downloaded quarterly and wetland hydroperiods are
calculated during the growing season. Gauge installation followed current regulatory guidance. Visual
observations of primary and secondary wetland hydrology indicators are also recorded during quarterly site
visits.
