EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Restoration Systems, L.L.C. (Restoration Systems) has completed restoration of nonriverine
wetlands at the Gatlin Swamp Wetland Restoration Site (hereafter referred to as the "Site ") to
assist the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) in fulfilling restoration goals
in the region. The Site is located approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Oak City, in Martin
County. The Site encompasses approximately 150.2 acres of land situated in an expansive
interstream flat characterized primarily by timber production and agriculture. The project
provides 138.7 acres of non - riverine wetland restoration, with benefits to water quality and
wildlife in a watershed that is highly dissected for agriculture and timber production.
The Site is located within sub -basin 03 -02 -09 of the Roanoke River Basin. This area is part of
United States Geological Survey (USGS) Hydrologic Unit (HU) 03010107 of the South
Atlantic /Gulf Region (14 -digit HU 03010107120020). Site features drain to Etheridge Swamp
and Conoho Creek, which is a major tributary to the Roanoke River.
A Detailed Wetland Restoration Plan was completed for the Site in September 2005. The plan
outlined methods designed to restore agricultural fields that had been ditched, drained, and
cleared for row crop production. Prior to implementation, the entire 150.2 acre Site contained
138.7 acres of hydric soil that had been effectively drained and contained no jurisdictional
wetlands. The Detailed Wetland Restoration Plan outlined restoration procedures including 1)
ditch cleaning prior to backfill, 2) depression construction, 3) impervious ditch plug
construction, 4) ditch backfilling, 5) floodplain soil scarification, and 6) plant community
restoration.
The following objectives were proposed to provide mitigation credit requested under the EEP
Request For Proposal (RFP) # 16- DO5024 dated October 22, 2004:
• Provide 125 acres of nonriverine Wetland Mitigation Units, as calculated in accordance
with the requirements stipulated in RFP #16- D05024.
• Restore approximately 125 acres of wetland through filling agricultural ditches, removal
of spoil castings, eliminating row crop production activities, and /or planting with native
forest species.
• Protect the Site in perpetuity with a conservation easement which is held by the State of
North Carolina.
As constructed, the Site provides 138.7 acres of non - riverine wetland restoration and 11.5 acres
of forested upland buffer.
In summary, the Site achieved the defined (or targeted) success criteria.
1. Saturation (free water) within one foot of the soil surface for a minimum of 5 percent (12
consecutive days) of the growing season, for all Site groundwater gauges in the Fourth
Monitoring Year (Year 2009).
2. Vegetation plots across the Site were well above the required 290 stems per acre with an
average of 1009 tree stems per acre in the Fourth Monitoring Year (Year 2009).

GATLIN SWAMP WETLAND RESTORATION SITE
ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT
YEAR 4 (2009)
MARTIN COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Restoration Systems established the Gatlin Swamp Wetland Restoration Site (Site) in the Coastal
Plain region of the Roanoke River Basin (14 -digit HU 03010107120020). The Site is located
approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Oak City, in Martin County (Figure 1). The Site
encompasses approximately 150.2 acres of land situated in an expansive interstream flat
characterized primarily by timber production and agriculture. The project offers 138.7 acres of
nonriverine wetland restoration, with benefits to water quality and wildlife in a watershed that is
highly dissected for agriculture and timber production.
A Detailed Wetland Restoration Plan was completed for the Site in September 2005. The plan
outlined methods designed to restore agricultural fields that had been ditched, drained, and cleared
for row crop production. Prior to implementation, the entire 150.2 acre Site contained 138.7 acres
of hydric soil that had been effectively drained and contained no jurisdictional wetlands. The
Detailed Wetland Restoration Plan outlined restoration procedures including 1) ditch cleaning
prior to backfill, 2) depression construction, 3) impervious ditch plug construction, 4) ditch
backfilling, 5) floodplain soil scarification, and 6) plant community restoration.
The following objectives were proposed to provide mitigation credit requested under the EEP
Request For Proposal (RFP) #I 6-DO5 024 dated October 22, 2004:
• Provide 125 acres of nonriverine Wetland Mitigation Units, as calculated in accordance
with the requirements stipulated in RFP #I 6-DO5024.
• Restore approximately 125 acres of wetland through filling agricultural ditches, removal of
spoil castings, eliminating row crop production activities, and /or planting with native forest
Spec ies.

2.0 MONITORING PROGRAM
The Site monitoring protocol consists of a comparison between reference and restoration areas
along with evaluation of jurisdictional wetland criteria (Environmental Laboratory 1987).
Monitoring will entail analysis of two primary parameters: hydrology and vegetation. Monitoring
of restoration efforts will be performed for a minimum of 5 years or until success criteria are
fulfilled. The monitoring program is described below.
2.1 Wetland Hydrology
2.1.1 Hydrology Monitoring Procedure
After hydrological modifications were completed at the Site, continuously recording monitoring
gauges were installed in accordance with specifications outlined in Installing Monitoring
Wells /Piezometers in Wetlands (NCWRP 1993). Monitoring gauges were set to a depth of
approximately 24 inches below the soil surface. Screened portions of each gauge were surrounded
by filter fabric, buried in a sand screen, and sealed with a bentonite cap to prevent siltation and
surface flow infiltration during floods.
Five monitoring gauges were installed in wetland restoration areas to provide representative
coverage of the Site (Figure 2). Two gauges were also placed in a reference area in similar
landscape positions to use as comparison with onsite conditions (Figure 1). Hydrological
sampling will be performed in restoration and reference areas during the growing season (March
Gatlin Swamp Wetland Restoration Site page 4

Year 4 (2009)

16 and November 14) at daily intervals necessary to satisfy the hydrology success criteria within
each physiographic landscape area.
2.1.2 Hvdroloaic Success Criteria
Target hydrological goals have been developed using regulatory wetland hydrology criteria and
reference wetland sites.
Regulatory Wetland Hydrology Criteria
The regulatory wetland hydrology criterion requires saturation (free water) within 1 foot of
the soil surface for 5 percent of the growing season under normal climatic conditions. In
some instances, the regulatory wetland hydroperiod may extend between 5 and 12.5
percent of the growing season.
Reference Groundwater Modeling
The reference groundwater model forecasted the wetland hydroperiod in restoration areas
will range between approximately 2 and 26 percent of the growing season in early
successional phases. Because wetland hydroperiods during old field stages of wetland
development are projected to extend for less than 12.5 percent of the growing season,
wetland monitoring plans that extend for a five year period after restoration will utilize a
minimum 5 percent wetland hydrology criterion to substantiate restoration success.
Reference Wetland Sites
Two monitoring gauges were installed in reference wetlands located in the northern and
eastern periphery of the Site. Wetland hydroperiods measured by groundwater gauges
located within the reference areas will be compared to hydroperiods exhibited by
groundwater gauges in the restoration area to further evaluate restoration success. Success
criteria outlined by the groundwater model indicates that the wetland restoration area
should maintain saturation within one foot of the soil surface for at least 74 percent of the
hydroperiod exhibited by the reference wetland gauges in any given year.
Under normal climatic conditions, the hydrologic success criterion requires saturation (free water)
within one foot of the soil surface for a minimum of 5 percent of the growing season. This
hydroperiod translates to saturation for a minimum, 12 -day (5 percent) consecutive period during
the growing season, which extends from March 16 and November 14 (244 days) (USDA 1977).
In atypical dry years, the hydroperiod must exceed 75 percent of the hydroperiod exhibited by the
reference gauges. Reference gauge data will be used to compare wetland hydroperiods between
the restoration areas and relatively undisturbed reference wetlands. This data will supplement
regulatory evaluation of success criteria and also provide information that will allow interpretation
of mitigation success in years not supporting "normal" rainfall conditions.
2.1.3 Hydrological Monitoring Results and Comparison with Success Criteria
Hydrographs for each monitoring location are provided in Appendix A along with daily rainfall
totals for 2009. Groundwater data presented in Table 1 were collected through July 2' ), 2009 for
reference and restoration area gauges. Data will continue to be downloaded monthly until the end
of the 2009 growing season (November 14, 2008) and will be available upon request.

All Site groundwater gauges achieved the defined (or targeted) success criteria for hydrology,
saturation (free water) within one foot of the soil surface for a minimum of 5 percent (12
consecutive days) of the growing season, in the Fourth Monitoring Year (Year 2009) (Table 1).

and will be available upon request.
2.2 Vegetation
2.2.1 Vegetation Monitoring Procedure
Restoration monitoring procedures for "vegetation are designed in accordance with United States
Environmental Protection Agency guidelines presented in Mitigation Site Type (MIST)
documentation (USEPA 1990) and United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
Compensatory Hardwood Mitigation Guidelines (USDOA 1993). The following presents a
general discussion of the monitoring program.
During the first year, vegetation received visual evaluations on a periodic basis to ascertain the
degree of overtopping of planted species by nuisance species. Quantitative sampling was
conducted in late summer of the first year. Subsequently, quantitative sampling of vegetation will
be performed between June 1 and September 30 of each monitoring year for five years or until the
vegetation success criteria are achieved.
Five sample transects were installed within planted areas of the Site to equally represent the
various hydrologic regimes (Figure 2). Each transect is 600 feet in length and 7.25 feet in width
(0.1 acre). Transects were centered on the five groundwater monitoring gauges and are defined by
the corresponding gauge number. In each sample plot, vegetation parameters monitored include
species composition and species density. Photographs of the five vegetation plots are included in
Appendix B.
2.2.2 Vegetation Success Criteria
Success criteria have been established to verify that the vegetation component supports
community elements necessary for floodplain forest development. Success criteria are dependent
upon the density and growth of Character forest species. Additional success criteria are dependent
upon density and growth of "Character Tree Species." Character Tree Species include planted
Gatlin Swamp Wetland Restoration Site page 6

Year 4 (2009)

species and species identified through inventory of an approved reference (relatively undisturbed)
forest community used to design the planting plan. All canopy tree species planted and identified
in the reference forest will be utilized to define "Character Tree Species" as termed in the success
criteria.
Table 2. Character Tree Species
PLANTED SPECIES
REFERENCE SITE SPECIES
Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda)
Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra)
Pond Pine (Pinus serotina)
Red Maple (Acer rubrum)
Swamp Chestnut Oak (Quercus michauxii)
White Oak (Quercus alba)
Cherrybark Oak (Quercus pagoda)
Bitternut Hickory (Carya cordiformis)
Southern Red Oak (Quercus falcata)
Hop Hornbean (Ostrya virginiana)

American Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis)
Ironwood (Carpinus carolinia)
Black Walnut (Juglans nigra)
Hackberry (Celtis laevigata)
Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica)
An average density of 320 stems per acre of Character Tree Species must be surviving in the first
three monitoring years. Subsequently, 290 Character Tree Species per acre must be surviving in
year 4 and 260 Character Tree Species per acre in year 5. Planted species must represent a
minimum of 30 percent of the required stems per acre total (87 stems per acre in year 4). Planted
Character Tree Species may serve as a seed source for species maintenance during mid -
successional phases of forest development. Each naturally recruited Character Tree Species may
represent up to 10 percent of the required stems per acre total. In essence, seven naturally
recruited Character Tree Species may represent a maximum of 70 percent of the required stems
per acre total. Additional stems of naturally recruited species above the 10 percent and 70 percent
thresholds are discarded from the statistical analysis.
If vegetation success criteria are not achieved based on average density calculations from
combined plots over the entire restoration area, supplemental planting may be performed with tree
species listed in the Restoration Plan or observed in the Reference Site. Supplemental planting
will be performed as needed until achievement of vegetation success criteria.
No quantitative sampling requirements are proposed for herb assemblages as part of the vegetation
success criteria. Development of floodplain forests over several decades will dictate the success in
migration and establishment of desired understory and groundcover populations.

2.2.3 Vegetation Sampling Results and Comparison to Success Criteria
Quantitative sampling of vegetation was conducted in July 2009. Results are provided in Table 3.
Vegetation success criteria for year 4 (290 tree stems per acre) were exceeded for the 2009 annual
monitoring year with an average of 1009 tree stems per acre across the Site. Each individual
vegetation plot met success criteria with a range of 738 to 1176 tree stems per acre.
3.0 CONCLUSIONS
The Site achieved the defined (or targeted) success criteria, with saturation (free water) within one
foot of the soil surface for a minimum of 5 percent (12 consecutive days) of the growing season,
for all Site groundwater gauges in the Fourth Monitoring Year (Year 2009). A summary of
groundwater gauge data for the year 1 (2006) through year 4 (2009) is included in Table 4. Also,
vegetation plots across the Site were well above the required 320 stems per acre with an average
of 1009 tree stems per acre in the Fourth Monitoring Year (Year 2009) (Table 5).
