Site Background Information ,; U N 1 6 201.0 A. Site Location DER-WATERQJAUTY WETIIWUS AND STORW A'.'F.R FMCH This project is for mitigation of stream impacts being incurred on a mixed-use development site referred to as the "Villages at Reedy Fork", northeast of Greensboro, N.C. just east of the Eckerson Road exit on US Hwy 29. At this site approximately 1430 feet of a channelized tributary (Rosgen G-type) to Reedy Fork Creek (within the Haw River Basin, USGS unit #03030002) was restored with new planform, dimension, profile, and conservation buffers. Reedy Fork Creek, USGS HUC# 03030002, drains approximately the northern 1 /2 of Guilford County within the North Carolina Piedmont Province. In this area, Reedy Fork and its tributaries have a west to east drainage, before entering the Haw River and trending southeast towards the N.C. coast. This area of the Haw River drainage has been ranked by the EPA as high quality waters but with high vunerability. The greater majority of reporting water quality sampling sites in the basin show that the creeks within basin are performing for their designated uses. The restoration recovered approximately 1800 linear feet of an E/C Rosgen-type stream. Figure 1. shows the location of the restored reach and its contributing watershed. B. Summary of Stream Mitigation/Restoration Activities a. Restoration Goals. The restoration plan submitted in 2001 clearly documented that the impaired reach had previously been channelized, and with the exception of a narrow fringe of trees and shrubs along the banks, lacked a hardwood bottomland riparian habitat within the majority of its adjacent 100 year floodplain. The goals of this restoration are to recapture natural channel, aquatic habitat and riparian characteristics along a 1430' long reach (1820 ft restored) of the un-named tributary to Reedy Fork that is identified in Figure 1. The restoration is to restore pattern, dimension and profile to natural North Carolina regime and reference reach conditions. Many areas of the channelized reach were noted as unstable and eroding when surveyed in the fall of 2000 and spring of 2001. The restoration aims to stabilize channel banks, and restore aquatic and riparian habitat. It includes a permanent easement for a 50 ft conservation buffer to both sides of the stream (measured from the bankfull edge). b. Restoration Schedule: The initial restoration plan was submitted in the summer of 2001, and amended to meet comments in the fall of 2001. Weather and DOT disturbances related to bridge work and road widenings forced the postponement of project implementation for a 2-3 year period. The restoration plan was finally implemented from late October of 2004 to late January of 2005. Documentation of as- built conditions started in November of 2004 and was completed in January of 2005. p. 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 TOPO! reap printed on 01!14/04 front "North -arohra.tpc" and ntitled rpg" 79145.000' 6V 9144.000' W 79o43,000' W .t _ y _. .. - E: n z 0 O T O M Z' O Ih 'i - I O ' O G Ks i ?? vy.T?'••J • !? y x+5''.3 ff ' .a ?f -?.,? r r r 't :?5 G 37 79'45.000' W 79144.000'_W 79'43.)00' W WGS84 79-42,000 MNTN 0 _ _?I?.9EE W 1111 - P,mted(mm TOPGI 020M Net...

Monitoring Protocol: The monitoring of the site is composed of 3 components: 1) physical stream morphology, 2) aquatic macroinvertibrate populations, and 3) plant communities (banks and over-bank conservation buffer areas). The monitoring occurs at various stages in the planning, implementation, and post implementation phases of the work. First, prior to any field mitigation, engineering plans were reviewed for consistency with the mitigation objectives set forth in the restoration plan. Secondly, during the mitigation work, a schedule was established for field verification to assure that the work was proceeding as planned and in a manner which provided minimal disturbance, and maximum conservation of existing stream bed habitat. Third, a performance-based monitoring program was initiated after the project was completed, and which continues for 5 years. Performance-based monitoring of the physical morphology of the stream is composed of two aspects. The first is a visual qualitative program designed to detect and anticipate potential areas of stream bank or bed failure. These are walk-throughs to check bed, bank, and buffer areas for physical and biological integrity, and allow problems to be detected and fixed in a timely manner. The second component is a quantitative program of stream morphology assessments that document that the restoration is achieving it's stated goals. Stream pattern, dimension, and longitudinal profile data are to be collected and compared over time to demonstrate the success of the stream mitigation work. The quantitative assessments shall occur during the 1st, 3`a, and 5th year of the 5 year period following completion of the work. [Due to the need for one complete growing season to adequately provide a basis for biotic monitoring, the first cycle of monitoring was moved to the spring of 2006; but the first of the three required cycles of macroinvertibrate to summer of 2007.1. Reports shall be submitted at the end of each of the years of quantitative monitoring. The physical monitoring shall also include documentation of bed grain size data, using the appropriate methodologies for mean bed particle sizes (e.g. Pebble counts for beds that are gravel/cobble based, and sieve analysis for sand and finer reaches). The quantitative monitoring of the plant communities shall be done during the same annual cycle as the physical monitoring (Ist, 3`a, and 5th years [Note: 1St year monitoring cycle was move to 2006 for reasons noted above]). For bank areas, three bank monitoring plots of 50 foot lengths shall be used to determine overall survivorship. For the over-bank conservation easement, three monitoring plots running for 100' section along the restoration shall be used to determine survivorship of the on a species by species basis. Where appropriate, 'volunteer' data shall be included to accurately represent the evolution and establishment of the bottomland floodplain plant community. Macro invertibrate sampling will follow the direction of the INTERIM, INTERNAL TECHNICAL GUIDE SUMMARY BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATE MONITORING PROTOCOLS FOR COMPENSATORY STREAM RESTORATION PROJECTS dated 10 May, 2000. • The monitoring plan will include data collected from one station above and one station within the restoration reach. Data will be collected within the relocated or restored channel during all subsequent surveys p. 5 ' Data collected prior to construction was included in the initial Stream Restoration Report. Benthic macro invertebrate surveys will be conducted for three years after restoration excluding the year immediately following restoration. Benthic macro invertebrate samples will be collected during the summer months (June- September). • Sample collection will follow protocols established by the Biolo ical g Assessment Unit of the Division of Water Quality as found in the Standard Operating Procedures for the Unit. The Qual-4 collection ' method will be used to collect samples from this stream. • NC certified biological laboratories pursuant to administrative code 15 NCAC 2H.1100 shall conduct the identification of all benthic macroinvertebrate samples. • Data analysis and choice of metrics will be consistent with rotocols p developed by the Biological Assessment Unit of the Division of Water ' Quality. These protocols are described in the Standard Operating Procedures manual for the Unit. ' • Reports summarizing survey results will be submitted to the Division of Water Qualit /W tl d U i i y e an s n t w thin 60 days following survey completion. • An assessment of channel materials using pebble count information will be conducted at each of the biological monitoring locations and included in the report. ' [Initially it was stated that the first of the three annual cycles of macroinvertibrate monitoring should not commence until the summer of 2007, and thus the 2°d and 3rd macroinvertibrate monitoring events could occur during successive summers of '08 & '09; however drought in 2007 delay the start of the three year monitoring to the late summer or early fall of 2008. u 1 ? ob 0 1 1 t 1 1 Section 2. Preconstruction Macroinvertibrate Data (collected in June of 2001; as excerpted from original 404/401 mitigation plan of 7/23/01) As part of the biological review for the Reedy Fork Stream Restoration and Mitigation Project, Macroinvertebrate samples were collected from a reference reach as well as an impaired reach. The reference reach is the same stream that will be used to provide reference geomorphology parameters for the stream restoration design. The impaired reach is the same reach that has been identified for restoration during the project. The streams were sampled on June 26, 2001 by Chris Matthews (HDR) and Jim Matthews (HARP). The DWQ protocols for processing benthic macroinvertebrate samples are discussed in the STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES manual (NCEHNR 1997) and in the INTERIM, INTERNAL TECHNICAL GUIDE BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATE MONITORING PROTOCOLS FOR COMPENSATORY STREAM RESTORATION PROJECTS prepared by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality 401/Wetlands Unit (NCEHNR 2001). Since these tributaries to Reedy Fork are 2nd order streams, an approved collection method for smaller streams, known as the Qual-4, was used. Qual-4 collection methods are recommended for small streams, which have catchments of one square mile, or less (lstand 2nd order streams). All taxa are collected and identified, rather than just Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) taxa, during this type of survey. The primary output for this sampling method is a taxa list with an indication of relative abundance (Rare, Common, Abundant) for each taxon. The calculation of metrics from a Qual-4 method is similar to those conducted for a standard qualitative collection method. These metrics include total and EPT taxa richness, EPT abundance and biotic index values. Currently, DWQ does not have classification criteria for small streams, therefore applicants are not required to calculate bioclassification ratings of these stream systems (NCENHR, 2001). Benthic macroinvertebrate samples are collected and preserved in the field. It is not necessary to know the total number of organisms from a specific habitat type when qualitative or semi-qualitative samples are collected. Specimens are "picked" from the sample and preserved in 95% ethanol. The Qual-4 collection method takes approximately one hour per site. Field processing samples in this fashion minimizes laboratory processing. The following table and graphs show the taxa collected, as well as, metrics for total and EPT taxa richness, EPT abundance and biotic index values.

Annual Monitoring Reports A. Year 1 (2006) Monitoring Report The as-built report was submitted in 2005 concluding construction of the restoration work in this calendar year. The 2006 calendar year was then determined to be the first monitoring cycle, which allowed sufficient time for a number of near-bankfull events to occur, and all planted materials to become established through one complete growing season (2005). As indicated in the above described monitoring protocol, macroinvertibrate sampling was not included in the first yearly monitoring cycle, given the need for a settling or adaptive period in stream bed conditions. This period also involved riffle and meander pool adjustments, so grain size monitoring will also commence in the next cycle. The first monitoring cycle included: photo documentation from all benchmarked photostations, cross section surveys, a surveyed longitudinal profile (bed and water surface), and a quantitative assessment of stream bank and buffer vegetation. The photographs, survey data tables and plots, and plant data are appended for this monitoring cycle in Appendix 4A as indicated below. a. Photostation Photos App. 4A-a b. Cross Sections App. 4A-b c.

Summary & recommendations The 2006 photographs, morphologic surveys, and vegetative survivorship indicate that the restoration is meeting its morphologic, hydrologic, and ecological goals p. 11 1 1 ' and success criteria. The longitudinal profile shows that meander bend areas have established pooling water areas with continuing adjustments as bed loads shift from storm to storm. Stream bank and buffer vegetation is now well rooted and gains in bank ' vegetation height should bring increasing shade into the stream in the coming 2007 growing season. ' The 2007 annual cycle represents the 3rd growing season since completion of construction. Following leaf-out in the spring a complete suite of quantitative monitoring data will be collected and submitted to meet the 3rd year's monitoring requirements. This ws to initially include both macroinvertibrate and sediment size data. In 2008, the 2°d of 3 years of macroinvertibrate data was to be collected and archived for inclusion into the next monitoring report, or reported under separate cover. In 2010 (the 5t" year) a t complete and final set of quantitative monitoring data is to be collected and submitted to demonstrate the success of the restoration to close out the mitigation project (due in January of 2011). This schedule is dependent on meeting success criteria. 1 1 p. 12 1 B. Year 3 (2008) Monitoring Report The as-built report was submitted in 2005 concluding construction of the restoration work in this calendar year. The 2006 calendar year was then determined to be the first monitoring cycle, which allowed sufficient time for a number of near-bankfull events to occur, and all planted materials to become established through one complete growing season (2005). As indicated in the above described monitoring protocol, macroinvertibrate sampling was not included in the first yearly monitoring cycle, given the need for a settling or adaptive period in stream bed conditions. The late summer August to early September period of 2007 was selected for starting the macroinvertibrate sampling and first macroinvertibrate monitoring cycle. However, the field crew discovered the creek had dried up during the 2007 drought. Over the winter of 07-08 flow recovered, and macro invertibrate sampling was re-attempted in the late summer of 08. An addendum to this report was filed independently with water quality, pebble count, and the laboratory macroinvertibrate results. The year 3 data provided here includes: photo documentation from all benchmarked photostations, cross section surveys, a surveyed longitudinal profile (bed and water surface), and a quantitative assessment of stream bank and buffer vegetation. The photographs, survey data tables and plots, and plant data are appended for this monitoring cycle in Appendix 4B as indicated below. a. Photostation Photos App. 4B-a b. Cross Sections App. 4B-b c.

Summary & recommendations The 2008 photographs, morphologic surveys, and vegetative survivorship indicate that the restoration is meeting its morphologic, hydrologic, and ecological goals p. 13 and success criteria. The longitudinal profile shows that meander bend areas have established pooling water areas with continuing adjustments as bed loads shift from storm to storm. Pools have continued to deepen and create under bank fish habitat on outer ' meander bends, and inner meander bends and some inflection areas have build lateral berms at bankfull stage. Comparisons of the 2008 and 2006 longitudinal profiles indicate that a stable riffle and pool structure is now established in the reach. Vegetation show the ' same original survivorships as indicated in the year 1 vegetative assessments (66%) but with very high and increasing numbers of native woody volunteers. The live stakes on ' creek banks have had good survivorship. Woody vegetation planted and volunteered into the buffer at this tract has had to compete with grasses during a period of prolonged drought and has thus not seen the extent of growth noted on some of our other prior ' projects. While survivorship is good at this site, it may take a few more years for the trees to become better established at the site. ' The lowermost 50 feet of the restored stream has had repeated attempts by beaver to impound the creek by construction of a low head dam (see appended photos: 413-h). The dam was breached prior to the collection of this year's monitoring data and ' thus does not reflect any impacts from in the water or sediment profile. Continued beaver activity in this area may result in the loss of the lower 50 feet of the stream from the restored portions of the stream. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 During the collection of the year 3 monitoring data in May of 2008 tracks of at least one all terrain vehicle (ATV) was noted in the conservation buffer, and one ATV driven by two gentlemen from the City of Greensboro Water Resources was encountered. Several damaged tree were noted along the ATV trail (see appended photos: 413-a). It was recommended that signage be used to discourage ATV incursion into the conservation easement as it is prohibited under the easement agreement. Beginning the late summer of 2008 and continuing for 3 years, macroinvertibrate data will need to be collected to meet the 3 consecutive years of macroinvertibrate sampling requirement included in the monitoring plan. This work should also include sediment grain size pebble counts in the sampling areas at each at each sampling cycle. An addendum to this report should be filed once the first sampling has been completed, and then subsequent 2009 and 2010 sampling data will be reported with the final 2010 monitoring report. The last cycle of morphologic monitoring will occur in summer of 2010 and the last macroinvertibrate monitoring will occur in August or September of 2010. A final monitoring report will thus be submitted for the restoration project in the fall of 2010, depending on when macroinvertibrate data is returned from the certified laboratory. p. 14 ' C. Year 5 (2010) Monitoring Report The as-built report was submitted in 2005 concluding construction of the ' restoration work in this calendar year. The 2006 calendar year was then determined to be the first monitoring cycle, which allowed sufficient time for a number of near-bankfull events to occur, and all planted materials to become established through one complete ' growing season (2005). As indicated in the monitoring protocol described above, macroinvertibrate sampling was not included in the first yearly monitoring cycle, given the need for a settling or adaptive period in stream bed conditions. The late summer period of 2007 was initially selected for starting the macroinvertibrate sampling. However, the creek had dried up during the 2007 drought forcing the sampling to be ' delayed to 2008. In the late summer of 2008, and then again in the late summer of 2009, macroinvertibrate sampling was completed and reported under separate cover. The last of the required three successive years of macroinvertibrate sampling is scheduled to occur this coming September of 2010. The data will be transmitted under separate cover once ' the results are returned from the subcontracted laboratory. This is expected to completed by January of 2011. This year 5 monitoring report includes: photo documentation from all benchmarked photostations, cross section surveys, a surveyed longitudinal profile (bed and water surface), and a quantitative assessment of stream bank and buffer vegetation.

Summary & recommendations p. 15 ' The 2010 photographs, morphologic surveys, and vegetative survivorship indicate that the restoration is meeting most, but not all of its morphologic, hydrologic, and ecological goals and success criteria. Short comings that have arisen since the year 3 monitoring event are persistent back water impacts on lower end of the stream's water profile from beaver activity, die back of riparian shrubs due to a combination of factors discussed further below, and flood displacement of rock armor placed over the upstream plug of the abandoned channel. ' The longitudinal profile shows that meander bend areas have established pooling water areas with continuing minor adjustments as bed loads shift from storm to storm. Pools have maintained their scoured depths and support under bank fish habitat on outer t meander bends. Overall, the comparisons of the 2010, 2008 and 2006 longitudinal profiles indicate that a stable riffle and pool structure has been established in the reach for the upper two-thirds of the restored reach. In the lower most one-third of the reach, f however, backwater conditions were observed in the longitudinal profile due to incipient beaver dam construction (see miscellaneous photos, App. G.). Comparisons of as built, year 1, 3, and 5 monitoring cross sections show very stable bed conditions. The cross sections show a progressive aggradation of inner berm features, which should reach equilibrium with sediment transport dynamics in the next few years. Five years after construction, the high number of tree volunteers has made counting each live tree within the entire buffer area, as had been done for the prior monitoring events, impractical. In lieu of a comprehensive stem count, representative plots were selected to determine success of the riparian buffer as specified in the original monitoring protocol. The most heavily vegetated areas were purposely not selected for plots so as not to skew the results. Two areas on the north riparian buffer and two on the south riparian buffers were selected. These four plots total to approximately 1.10 acres, which is 22.63% of the estimated conservation easement of 4.86 acres. With a target of 320 trees per acre, 1555 trees are required for the entire site. Stem counts for the four plots were 2041 which is equivalent to 1855 trees per acre, which would suggest that 9,000 trees (±) are currently on site. The conservation easement was originally planted with 12 tree species. There are now 28 species of trees and four species of shrubs on the site equaling 32. Sweet-gum, Sycamore, River birch, and Green ash are the most abundance volunteers. These four species account for 1535 stems in the four plots counted, and alone equal 1395 stems per acre. The data indicates that the conservation buffer surpasses, by a large margin, the required success survivorship numbers. The stream banks of the restoration have faired much worse than the riparian buffers. This is believed largely due to impacts by Beavers (Castor canadensis). Much of the Silky willow and Silky dogwood has been cut for food and dam building material. However, flooding of the banks upstream of the beaver dams exacerbated the cutting damage by drowning the herbaceous and the woody vegetation. Beaver dams were p. 16 removed in the Fall of 2009 prior to the macroinvertibrate sampling. The herbaceous vegetation is recovering fairly well, but many of the woody stems along the lowest points of the banks, primarily the first live stake row are dead. In some cases all three rows in installed shrubs on both banks are severely impacted, reducing root protection to less that 30%. Many of the willows that survived the drowning and put out new growth are now further stressed and may die due to damage by the Cottonwood leaf beetle (Chrysomela scripta). These beetle larvae attack Cottonwood (Popidus deltoides), other Poplar species, and Willows (Salix sp.) The larvae skeletonize leaves, while adults attack only midrib and large veins. There can be up to 5 broods a year (Bug Guide, http://bLqg( /V uide.net`node' iew/4050). See photos of the pupa in the Miscellaneous Photolog of Appendix 4C. It will be sometime later in the growing season before a determination of what has survived the beavers and the beetle infestation can be ascertained. Overall it is estimated that approximately 40% off the approximately 6,000 riparian shrubs initially installed as live stakes are dead or at risk. The following recommendations and contingency actions to deal with the observed short comings of this restoration effort are: 1. Extend vegetative, photo, and longitudinal monitoring for an additional two growing seasons, with ongoing reports to agencies in: a) January of 2011 (3`d macroinvertibrate report with update on repairs), b) September of 2011 (for plant community monitoring, photo-documentation, and longitudinal profile), and c) a final report in September of 2012 (for plant community monitoring, photo-documentation, and longitudinal profile). 2. Remove beaver dam from lowermost section of steam restoration; and consider removal of the cast iron culverts set longitudinally into the stream bed (these are just down stream from the end of the restoration) as they continually have been one of the focal points of beaver dam construction. 3. Establish a bi-weekly inspection log for beaver activity, and remove dams as needed to maintain stream water profile. Document with time stamped photographs each inspection. Note extend of beaver foraging. 4. Perform blind autonomous 3`d party audits 2-3 times per year to verify stewardship protocol by owner regarding impacts. 5. Replant all dead and severely stressed bank shrubs with new live stakes or rooted materials as per the original planting plan in the upcoming fall/winter of 2010. Give preference to species less vunerable to site stressors. 6. Should beaver continue to forage the site beyond management controls document all efforts to date and confer with agencies over appropriate continuing stewardship protocols. 7. Maintain appropriate signage to limit impacts by ATV traffic, as there continues to be evidence of incursions. p. 17 ' Appendix 2 Preconstruct:on Macroinvertebrate Data 1 1 1 n n 1 ' Reedy Fork Macroinvertebrate Pre-construction Survey June 2001 As part of the pre-construction monitoring and baseline data compilation for the Reedy ' Fork Stream Restoration and Mitigation Project, Macroinvertebrate samples were collected from a reference reach as well as an impaired reach. The reference reach is the same stream that will be used to provide reference geomorphology parameters for the ' stream restoration design. The impaired reach is the same reach that has been identified for restoration during the project. The streams were sampled on June 26, 2001 by Chris Matthews (HDR) and Jim Matthews (HARP). The DWQ protocols for processing benthic macroinvertebrate samples are discussed in the STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES manual (NCEHNR 1997) and in the INTERIM, INTERNAL TECHNICAL GUIDE BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATE MONITORING PROTOCOLS FOR COMPENSATORY STREAM RESTORATION PROJECTS prepared by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality 401/Wetlands Unit (NCEHNR 2001). Since these tributaries to Reedy Fork are 2nd order streams, an approved collection method for smaller streams, known as the Qual-4, was used. Qual-4 collection methods are recommended for small streams, which have catchments of one square mile, or less (1st and 2nd order streams). All taxa are collected and identified, rather than just Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) taxa, during ' this type of survey. The primary output for this sampling method is a taxa list with an indication of relative abundance (Rare, Common, Abundant) for each taxon. The calculation of metrics from a Qual-4 method is similar to those conducted for a standard ' qualitative collection method. These metrics include total and EPT taxa richness, EPT abundance and biotic index values. Currently, DWQ does not have classification criteria for small streams, therefore applicants are not required to calculate bioclassification ' ratings of these stream systems (NCENHR, 2001). Benthic macro invertebrate samples are collected and preserved in the field. It is not ' necessary to know the total number of organisms from a specific habitat type when qualitative or semi-qualitative samples are collected. Specimens are "picked" from the ' sample and preserved in 95% ethanol. The Qual-4 collection method takes approximately one hour per site. Field processing samples in this fashion minimizes laboratory processing. ' The following table and graphs show the taxa collected, as well as, metrics for total and EPT taxa richness, EPT abundance and biotic index values.

However, when the survivors are added to the volunteers, the number of trees now present exceeds the number originally planted. The buffer requirement is 320 trees per acre. With the buffer at 4.86 + acres, the requirement is one thousand five hundred and fifty five trees, +. The current count exceeds the required number of trees. The stream banks are well vegetated as are the coir fiber logs. The live stakes show good survivorship but have been impacted by Beaver (Castor canadensis) in several areas. Impacts are also ongoing due to unauthorized vehicle traffic. Appendix 4.C.-a 2010 Photostation Photos 1 1 1 1 p. 20 ;i FA 1, -4:, 1 Photo Sta. 1, Photo 4 2. Looking upstream Photo Sta. 1. Photo # 1.
