Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank ii Monitoring Year 3 of 5
1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/PROJECT ABSTRACT
The Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank (Bank) is located in Orange County North Carolina
within land owned by Milton A. Latta and Sons Dairy Farms, Inc. A permanent
conservation easement covers the restored stream and surrounding riparian buffer. This
easement defines the Bank's boundaries. The Bank is located on an active dairy farm
approximately seven miles northeast of Hillsborough and six miles northwest of Durham
in northeastern Orange County, North Carolina. The stream(s) lie within USGS
hydrologic unit 03020201020020 in the Neuse River Basin. The North Carolina Division
of Water Quality (NCDWQ) classifies the main reach, Forrest Creek, as a WS-II (water
supply II), HQW (high quality water), and NSW (nutrient sensitive water).
Prior to restoration, pasture land surrounded most of the length of the project reaches and
the stream banks lacked strong rooted vegetation (e.g. woody or deep rooted herbaceous
vegetation). Due to the lack of bank protection and partially cleared watershed, the
stream channels became entrenched within the floodplain and showed signs of high shear
stress. In this condition and with regular impacts due to cattle traffic, bank erosion had
accelerated and the variety of bed features diminished.
Two types of vegetative communities surrounded the stream reaches prior to restoration.
The first zone consisted of a mix of woody vegetation that included significant
populations of invasive species including privet (Ligustrum sinense), multiflora rose
(Rosa multiflora), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Japanese Stilt Grass
(Mircostegium vimineum), Tree-of-Heaven (Ailanthus altissima), and Princess Tree
(Paulownia tomentosa). This zone covered the lower section of the Ut Forrest Creek and
the upper section of Forrest Creek. The second zone consisted primarily of herbaceous
vegetation with scattered woody vegetation. The woody vegetation included a mix of
natural, invasive, and succession species. This zone covered the remaining restoration
areas.
The altered conditions of the stream and the riparian buffer reduced water quality and
impaired habitat. Pasture derived nutrients flowing untreated through the riparian zone
and fine silts sloughing from the incised banks raised biochemical oxygen demand. This
with the lack of sufficient reoxygenating riffle features reduced dissolved oxygen within
the water column. Water quality had also diminished due to raised turbidity from bank
erosion and elevated water temperatures caused by the lack of tree shading. Habitat
potential had been reduced by the diminished water quality and loss of physical habitat
such as bed features, undercut banks, and a well developed vegetative community.
The Forrest Creek reach was restored within the existing floodplain using a Priority II
approach and the Ut Forrest Creek reach bed was raised to the abandoned floodplain
using a Priority I approach. A portion of Forrest Creek immediately above the Forrest
Creek restoration reach was enhanced by modifying a downstream crossing that had
caused ponding upstream of it. The crossing modification reestablished natural flow and
will create a natural channel profile. Above the enhancement area, a section of Forrest
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 1 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
Creek has been placed under a conversation easement to preserve a functional stream
channel and riparian buffer.
The stream restoration work is regulated under the Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank
Mitigation Banking Instrument signed by the Sponsor and the US Army Corp of
Engineers (USACE), the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), the NC
Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ), and the NC Wildlife Resources Commission
(NCWRC) all comprising the Interagency Review Team (IRT) formerly the MBRT in
accordance with Federal guidelines and regulations including the Compensatory
Mitigation losses of Aquatic Resources Final Rule, 33 CFR Parts 325 and 332 and 40
CFR Part 230. Restoration work resulted in the restoration of 6,825 linear feet,
enhancement (Level I) of 325 linear feet, and preservation of 3,005 linear feet of stream.
With the restoration, water quality will be improved due to a decrease in nutrients,
turbidity, and moderation in water temperature. Biochemical oxygen demand will be
reduced through filtering in the riparian buffer and riverine wetlands. Potential habitats
have been added through the creation of bed features and reestablishment of riparian
vegetative community.
Monitoring Plan
The annual monitoring work will assess the Bank's streams, the Forrest Creek main
channel and the Unnamed Tributary to Forrest Creek, to determine restoration success.
The monitoring plan has been set up based on guidance provided by The Stream
Mitigation Guidelines developed by the United States Corps of Engineers - Wilmington
District (McLendon, et al. 2003), version 1.2 (11/16/2006) of the North Carolina
Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) document entitled "Content, Format, and Data
Requirements for EEP Monitoring Reports", version 2.0 (3/27/2008) of the EEP
document entitled "Mitigation Plan Document Format, Data Requirements, and Content
Guidance", and the Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank Mitigation Plan (May 2008).
The monitoring will occur annually for five years. The monitoring period should include
two separate years with bankfull events. Bankfull events will be verified using an
installed crest stage gauge that will be inspected during each monitoring visit. Monitoring
reports will be submitted during years 1-5.
Monitoring work will include reference photographs, vegetative stem counts, materials
sampling, site survey, bankfull event documentation, and visual assessment and mapping
of significant features. Mid- Atlantic Mitigation and the IRT in coordination with the
appropriate regulatory agencies will determine when stream and riparian restoration have
met success criteria. The sections below provide a framework for determining and
assessing success criteria.
Stream restoration will be considered successful through achievement of stable channel
geometry, appropriate channel materials, and lack of significant erosion. The riparian
buffer will be monitored for survivability and specific densities of planted vegetation and
exclusion of invasive species. The site will be maintained during the monitoring period to
allow it to continue on a trajectory that meets project goals and success criteria. Repairs
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 2 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
will be completed as necessary to reestablish channel stability and the site will be
replanted if vegetation shows signs of significant failure or if vegetative density goals
contained in the NMI are not achieved.
Year 3, 2010 monitoring was completed on November 17, 2010. Strategies and
methodologies laid out in the Monitoring Plan will be followed for a minimum of five
years of monitoring. The stream will be monitored for stability of dimension, pattern,
and profile using standard practices including permanent cross sections, longitudinal
profile, and pebble counts. Vegetative success of associated plantings will be monitored
for species diversity and survival with standardized, permanent (10m by 10m) vegetation
plots to be monitored annually for 5 years. Monitoring data will be analyzed to
determine what remedial actions, if any, are required. Any remedial actions proposed will
be detailed in the following monitoring report.
2.0 PROJECT BACKGROUND
2.1 LOCATION AND SETTING
The Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank (Bank) is located in Orange County North Carolina
within land owned by Milton A. Latta and Sons Dairy Farms, Inc. A permanent
conservation easement covers the restored stream and surrounding riparian buffer. This
easement defines the Bank's boundaries. The Bank is located approximately seven miles
northeast of Hillsborough and six miles northwest of Durham in northeastern Orange
County, North Carolina. The stream(s) lie within USGS hydrologic unit 03020201020020
in the Neuse River Basin.
Streams within the Bank consist of two reaches. The larger reach (Forrest Creek) flows
through the property from north to south and drains a 3.6 square mile area consisting of
predominantly forest and pasture land. The smaller tributary (UT 1) flows from west to
east before joining with Forrest Creek and drains a 0.1 square mile area consisting of
predominantly pasture land.
2.2 STRUCTURE AND OBJECTIVES
The goals of the project relate to providing ecological improvements to the Bank's
streams and riparian buffers through beneficial modifications of hydrology, water quality,
and habitat.
Goals related to hydrology include:
? Re-establishing floodplain connection by raising bed elevations (UT1) or
lowering adjacent floodplain (Forrest Creek)
? Increasing flood storage by re-establishing floodplain connection
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 3 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
Goals related to water quality include:
? Reducing turbidity and pollution by reducing sediment and nutrient inputs
(cattle exclusion)
? Reducing water temperatures by providing shading
? Increasing / stabilizing oxygen levels by reducing BOD/COD and increasing
reoxygenating turbulence
Goals related to habitat include:
? Improving in stream bed habitat by increasing riffle - pool diversity, reducing
sediment deposition, and improving low flow water depths
? Improving bank habitat by increasing stability and woody biomass
? Improving floodplain habitat by establishing microtopography and hydrology,
removing invasive vegetation, and increasing habitat diversity
? Improving food web dynamics by adding biomass (such as detritus, coarse
woody debris, and leaf matter) and re-establishing floodplain connection
The restoration achieves these goals through the following objectives:
? Stabilizing channel bed and banks through modifying dimension, pattern, and
profile using natural channel design
? Installing in-stream structures such as rock vanes, log vanes, and constructed
riffles
? Raising stream bed elevations or lowering floodplains
? Restoring soils in riparian buffer by excluding cattle and adding organic
components
? Removing invasive vegetation
? Planting native vegetation in riparian buffer
? Fencing out livestock
Together, these improvements will provide functional uplift for the watershed as a whole.
The dimension, pattern, and profile were restored using Rosgen Priority I and II
restoration approaches (Rosgen, David L. 1997). The Priority I approach was used on Ut
Forrest Creek to raise bed elevations and reconnect the stream to the abandoned
floodplain. The Priority II approach was used on Forrest Creek to reestablish an active
floodplain at the existing bed elevation. These methods will decrease stream bank
erosion, establish an active floodplain, reduce channel stress during floods, improve
aquatic habitat, and reduce fine sediments. A portion of Forrest Creek immediately above
the restoration reach was enhanced by modifying a downstream crossing that had created
ponding upstream of it. The crossing modification reestablished natural flow and will
create a natural channel profile. Above the enhancement area, a section of Forrest Creek
has been placed under conservation easement to preserve a functional stream channel and
riparian buffer.
The remaining impaired riparian buffer was planted as four (4) zones. Zones 1 and 2 are
the stream channel and bank zones consisting of tree and shrub species and native
herbaceous seeding typically found along stream banks in the region. Live stakes
comprised the bulk of installed species within these zones. Zone 3 is the riparian zone
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 4 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
consisting of selected tree and shrub species with a range of tolerances to inundation and
saturation. Zone 4 is the transitional zone that includes the buffer areas (subject of a
separate report prepared for NCDWQ).

3.1.2 Vegetative Problem Areas
The site is stabilized and vegetated with native woody and herbaceous species.
Approximately 1600 linear feet of the stream project along the main channel (27% of the
stream project as a whole) required remedial work due to poor soil and harsh winter
conditions combined with problem areas lacking vegetation. These areas have been
repaired according to the approved Remedial Repair Plan and seeded and stabilized. This
work has resulted in a minor disturbance to the riparian buffer in these areas. Every effort
was made to save planted trees and volunteers of significant size in this area.
For the most part, invasive species listed in the executive summary and in the Mitigation
Report have not reestablished themselves and will continue to be monitored and noted in
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 6 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
future reports. Several individuals of Princess Tree (Paulownia tomentosa) have been
spotted at the crossing below the confluence of the main channel and the UT. These will
be removed in the next monitoring year. Kudzu, which was previously kept at bay by
grazing cattle has began to establish along UT1 between Stations 119 and 127,
approximately. This population was treated twice this year and annual treatments will be
scheduled for this area. An additional small population has emerged on stream bank right
above London Lane. This area was treated once in 2010 and will be included in future
treatments.
An unidentified species of Commelina (Dayflower) tends to colonize the riffle areas and
shallow areas during low flow and dry periods. These plants die back over-winter each
year. Herbicide treatments were applied this summer in attempt to prepare the stream bed
for pebble counts and survey activities. A more detailed discussion of the effects of these
populations can be found with the Pebble Count analysis in the Forrest Creek Mitigation
Bank Stream Monitoring report.
As documented in the previously submitted Supplemental Planting Report a supplemental
planting of 600 gallon size trees was completed on February 10th, 2010 by Carolina
Wetland Services. Findings of the 2010 monitoring activities and stems counts are
discussed in the following section.

3.1.3 Stem Counts
The Mitigation Plan specifies four planting zones to be established as follows: Zone 1 -
Stream channel; Zone 2- Stream Bank; Zone 3 - Riparian; and Zone 4 - Transitional
(including buffer areas). Live stakes were installed along the newly constructed channel
within Zones 1 and 2. Zones 2 - 4 consist of tublings, gallon and 3 gallon size plants. A
reduction in the percentage of nuisance vegetation in areas with existing vegetation to
less than 10% will indicate establishment of native wetland vegetation. Study plots show
that the composition and density of vegetation in the restoration areas compares closely
to the reference areas, indicating restoration success for vegetation. Success will be
gauged by stem counts of planted species. Stem counts of over 320 woody stems per
acre after 5 years will be considered successful. Presence, numbers and health of
desirable volunteers will be considered before a replant will be deemed necessary.
Photos taken at established photo points should indicate maturation of riparian vegetation
community. Photographs will help to capture the health of the planted vegetation and the
severity of any invasive or exotic species that establish within the site. Permanent
vegetative plots have been established at 14 locations. The success of vegetation
plantings will be measured through stems counts. Height and DBH were measured at
baseline and will be measured again in year 5 to document the growth of individuals
surviving from baseline. These plots will be used to sample primarily Zones 2, 3 and 4.
Each plot covers 100 square meters for tree counts. Within each plot, a 1 meter plot will
be sampled to measure herbaceous coverage. During the counts, the health of the
vegetation will be noted. In addition to stem counts, the samples will inventory species
diversity to allow for comparison between the reference and restoration wetlands and
track the percent cover of nuisance species. The vegetation survey will occur during the
growing season.
On August 27th, 2010, the third year vegetative monitoring was performed on the
established vegetative plots.
3.1.4 Vegetation Assessment Summary
The success of riparian vegetation planting will be gauged by stem counts of planted
species and an assessment of community composition including (desirable) volunteers.
Stem counts of over 320 trees and shrubs per acre after 5 years will be considered
successful. The composition of the vegetation community should trend toward a
predominance of target species. A majority (80%) of the target species should be present
in the reforestation area in numbers and condition conducive to continuing the species
through the maturation of the community. The population of invasive species will be kept
below 10% of the total population. Photos taken at established photo points should
indicate maturation of riparian vegetation community.
The Year 3 monitoring numbers indicate approximately 86% survival and 503 stems per
acre overall. The Tributary reach maintained an overall stems per acre count of 543 not
counting volunteer species. This number was improved by supplemental plantings done
prior to the 2010 growing season. The main channel reach maintained an overall stem per
acre count of 463 not including volunteer species.

Along the main channel, no plots indicated a stems per acre count of below 320. Plot 3 is
marginal at 324, considering the success criteria goal is 320 after Year 5 for a buffer site,
as opposed to the goal of 260 for many other restoration sites; however inclusion of
volunteer stems of green ash which is a target species on the planting plan increases the
count to 486 stems per acre, therefore no additional supplemental planting is proposed.
The 2010 supplemental planting covered the unnamed tributary only. Desirable
volunteers are beginning to contribute more significantly along UT1. Stem counts for
both the main channel and the UT in 2010 do not indicate the need for any additional
replants at this time.
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 10 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
Please note a change in the number of individuals labeled as Unknown. Final
identifications were made during the 2009 count.
Along the main channel of Forrest Creek, herbaceous cover is well established. Sample
plots indicated an average of 94 % cover with a range of 80% (VQ6) to 100% cover
(VQ3, 4, 5, and 7). VQ1 and 2 tend to hold standing water leaving some areas slightly
bare. VQ6 was most recently stabilized with annual rye due to equipment traffic for
repairs to the stream bank in winter 2008. Cattle grasses and grasses used for stabilization
are beginning to be out competed by natural herbaceous cover such as soft rush and
ploygonum in the wet areas; and narrow leaved sunflower, dog fennel and cockle burr in
the drier areas.
Along the unnamed tributary, herbaceous cover is well established and more mature than
on the main channel. Sample plots indicated 100% cover throughout with similar
composition to the main channel.
Detailed vegetation survey information is located in Appendix A; including herbaceous
cover, stressed individuals, and volunteers.
3.2 CHANNEL STABILITY ASSESSMENT
3.2.1 Cross Sections
The stream geometry will be considered successful if the cross-section geometry, profile,
and sinuosity are stable or reach a dynamic equilibrium. It is expected that there will be
minimal changes in the designed cross sections, profile, and/or substrate composition.
Changes that may occur during the monitoring period will be evaluated to determine if
they represent a movement toward a more unstable condition (e.g. down cutting, erosion,
mid-channel bars, etc.) or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (e.g.
settling, vegetative changes, coarsening of bed material, etc.).
Deviation from the design ratios will not necessarily denote failure as it is possible to
maintain stability and not stay within the design geometry. Additionally, determination of
true bankfull will be difficult until the stream has had adequate flooding events to create
strong bankfull indicators.
Morphological data used for this report was collected in November, 2010 and is shown in
Appendix B.
Commelina is present in almost every riffle and throughout the tributary; this vegetation
in the channel at time of survey creates a slight artificial rise in bed elevation on some
cross sections. Overall the cross-section graphs for Year 3 compare well to Year 1 and
Year 2 and show stable dimension with normal, minor fluctuations.
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 11 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
3.2.2 Bank Full Events
Crest Stage Gages (CSG) are located on Forrest Creek and on the Tributary. Photo
documentation is shown in the Bank Full Event Photo Log in Appendix E. Rain fall data
is also presented in table form in Appendix E. A total of three bankfull events have been
documented since the submittal of the Year 1 Monitoring Report as noted in Table VI.
Significant rain events were recorded by the on-site rain gage in May, June and July, but
the CSG's were not triggered. It is typical for CSG's to be more difficult to trigger in the
summer months. At the time of monitoring both gages were found to be water logged,
and may have malfunctioned due to debris or vegetation blockage. This was removed and
the CSG was reset.
Repairs were made to the swale area above the confluence of the main channel and UT1
in February. This repair was a hold over from Year 1 storm damage due to Hurricane
Hanna. Before and after photos of this repair are located in Appendix E.

Profiles 1, 2, and 3 are along portions of the UT and Profiles 4 and 5 cover larger sections
of Forrest Creek. Commelina is present in almost every riffle and throughout the
tributary; this vegetation in the channel at time of survey creates a slight artificial rise in
bed elevation in some areas, particularly riffles. Overall the profile graphs for Year 3
compare well to Year 1 and Year 2 and show a stable profile with normal, minor
fluctuations.
Bed material was also sampled at five riffles throughout the project. Cross Sections T1,
T3 and T6 on the UT are located in LP 1, LP 2, and LP 3, respectively. Cross Sections 2
and 4 on Forrest Creek are located in LP 4 and LP 5, respectively.
Morphological data used for the profiles in this report was collected in November, 2010
and is shown in Appendix C. Pebble count data was collected in August 2010 and is also
included in Appendix C.
3.2.4 Site Summary and Remedial Actions
Approximately 1600 linear feet of the stream project along the main channel (27% of the
stream project as a whole) required remedial work due to poor soil and harsh winter
Forrest Creek Mitigation Bank 12 Monitoring Year 3 of 5
conditions combined with problem areas lacking vegetation. These areas have been
repaired according to the approved Remedial Repair Plan and seeded and stabilized. This
work has resulted in a minor disturbance to the riparian buffer in these areas. Every effort
was made to save planted trees and volunteers of significant size in this area. For more
information on the repair work, please refer to the attached Remedial Repair Plan and
project photos.
Kudzu along UT1 near VQT2 was treated twice this year with herbicide and annual
treatments will be scheduled for this area. This area will be continually monitored.
Minor beaver activity was not noted in late 2010 and the dams were removed. On-going
beaver management will be maintained as part of the monitoring requirements as
discussed in the Mitigation Plan.
Other than the areas mentioned above, the remainder of the site is functioning as planned.
The pattern and profile appear to be making minor adjustments, but the overall trend is
towards long term stability. We will continue to monitor the repair areas to ensure the
repairs are successful. We believe the addition of soil lifts will allow the vegetation to
establish itself in these areas which will prevent future erosion.

Executive Summary
On April 9t", 2010 members of the Inter-agency Review Team (IRT),
accompanied by EarthMark staff, walked the existing Forrest Creek Mitigation
Bank (FCMB) site. EarthMark staff had not walked the main channel of Forrest
Creek below the confluence of the unnamed tributary (UT) since monitoring
work was completed in September 2009. It is theorized that a particularly brutal
winter combined with poor soils below the confluence of the UT and the main
channel lead to significant damage and instability. The engineers/designers
opinion of the cause of these failures along with the proposed repair plan is
presented in more detail in the attached memorandum (Exhibit A).
Observations during the site visit indicated gravel had washed off of the
first cattle crossing (Station 200) into the easement. This was removed by our
on-site maintenance contractor in early July.
Below Cross Section 4, approximately Station 214, a large Swale feeds
into the main channel from the adjacent pasture and has been a reoccurring
problem area. The Swale itself is stable, however, upstream of this confluence
the channel has cut into the right bank and created a center bar/island. This area
also needs to be stabilized with vegetation, the soil has a low nutrient, high clay
content, rocky composition where live stakes will not take and lack of ground
cover is troublesome. The attached detail for the proposed rock vane was taken
from the original FCMB approved construction plans.
Small bare areas where live stakes have not taken and where no ground
cover has established exist all over the site. Remedial activities will address the
worst of these areas with top soil amendments and sod.
Between the last culvert crossing (Station 223) and London Lane (Station
232) many outside bends experienced some degree of stress this winter. Areas
where live stakes did not take and where no ground cover established in
previous seasons became loose and weak, sloughed off and deposited bank
sediment into the stream bed. Much of this sediment stayed in place at the toe
of the bank. This sediment can be reclaimed from the stream bed and used to
rebuild the banks, however, this soil is low-nutrient with high clay content and
will require top soil amendments.
Some areas may require more top soil for fill and soil amendments than
can be borrowed from adjacent pasture areas. Additional soil may be taken from
areas within the easement where vegetative growth is successful and indicates
acceptable soils. Within the easement these borrow areas will be left as
potential vernal pools no larger than 30 feet in diameter, as represented on the
Repair Plan map, and according to the attached detail also taken from the
original approved FCMB construction plans. Existing planted trees will be
salvaged and moved. Species that tolerate wetter conditions (i.e. river birch) will
be replanted and additional supplemental plantings will be done this winter if
necessary in all areas potentially impacted by repair work.

Situatio :
This winter was particularly wet .and cold. There were several strong freezes
followed bv large runoff events. When g°om id freezes and subsequently tha?? s, it
tends to loosen the soil structure (water expands when it freezes- forcing soil
particles apart). If there is not a strong, dense root system in the soil- it becomes
vu ItieTable to erosion. This is phenomenon is often observed along stream banks
dririil? the vaster. It is ni opinion that this phenomenon also contributed to the
recent erosion in c ertalli sections of Forrest Creek, puu•ticularly alotig the northisouth
facitiLy sections of the strea ill between the farm road and London Lane. The strongest
evidence for this hes itl the t11LUnLY of the erosion as well as the fact that it occurred
equally along both banks and not just in tileander bends
Recommendations:
As sitch- it is reconmiended that the prmi ia.ry focus of the repairs be to replace the
eroded banks and establish 17 igorous_ woody. vegetation in the banks. Figures 1 and
indicate the areas and the various proposed treatments. Kiniley-Honi recommends
the use of soil lifts to rmair the eroded areas. There are also some scoured areas
where we Live reconlinended soil replacement with coir iliattiilLy. The soil should be
impoi°ted or amended to include a lusher organic content- The area labeled as soil
lift bench in Figtue 1 proposes a more substantial treatment ,?-ith a more extensive
soil lift area, possibl'i° supported by rock or boulders along the upstream edge- The
soil lifts and soil replacements areas should also be vegetated. preferabl-v with some
interspersed bnish nlaattresses, fascines_. harvested sod, or live stakes to provide
i°ougluiess.
It is reconmieuded that a contractor be et graged to review the proposed repair
schemes. The contractor may. be able to provide a better sense of the cost as well
some approaches to further reduce costs.
Preliminary opinion of cost:
The following costs were developed from estimated and measured distances (as
opposed to slurvey). 41.11 of the estmi "Mtes assinne obtniiunLy top :soil from offsite and a
combination of dense plantiilas_ including brush niattresses. fascines., sod. and lire
stakes. The ti e of plantnag treatments Used can affect the cost signlftcantly. The
soil lift bench includes cost for rock or boulders as i?ell_
