Inc_ '"OOP- August 2011 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/PROJECT ABSTRACT The Goose Creek Stream Restoration Site (Site) is located in the City of Durham, North Carolina in a highly developed watershed (Figure 1, Appendix A). Goose Creek is part of the Neuse River Basin (Upper Neuse, Subbasin 03- 04 -01) and is located in USGS Cataloging Unit 03020201. This project is located in the EEP's Ellerbe Creek Local Watershed Plan ( http:// www .nceep.net/services /lwps/Upper Neuse/Ellerbe Creek_Local_Watershed_Plan.pdf) area, which is targeted for mitigation to protect watershed functions, increase aquatic life, decrease destructive flooding, provide recreational opportunities, and protect the Falls Lake drinking water supply. The preproject stream was highly modified and artificially confined by concrete along the southern/upstream channel and banks, and by rock walls in the northern/downstream reach. The project aimed to eradicate artificial hardening structures, and restore a more natural channel geometry and riparian buffer. Project restoration efforts provided 1465 linear feet of stream restoration, 1.38 acres of riparian buffer restoration, and 0.06 acre of riparian buffer enhancement. Tables summarizing project objectives and activities can be found in Appendix B. This report (compiled based on the EEP's Revised Table of Contents for 2009 Monitoring Report Submissions Version 1.2.1 dated 6/1/09) summarizes data for year 3 (2011) monitoring. The goals of the Goose Creek stream restoration project included the following. • To improve aquatic habitat by removing the fabriform channel liner on the Eastway Elementary School reach (upstream/southern reach) and the stone retaining walls on the Longmeadow Park reach (downstream/northern reach) and reintroduce a more defined and natural riffle /pool channel geometry. • To improve water quality by reducing nutrient loading from adjacent developed properties through restoration of a riparian buffer. • To improve terrestrial habitat by restoring a riparian buffer. • To decrease the sediment and nutrient content of stormwater flow originating in the Barnes Street Redevelopment project site, which flows through the Site and into Goose Creek, through the means of a re- configured stormwater channel which slows stormwater flow, allowing sediment to settle and nutrients to be absorbed by planted vegetation. Goals were accomplished by removing artificial hardening structures; constructing a natural, stable profile and dimension for the stream channel; and reestablishing a continuous riparian buffer along the stream banks. Project implementation has greatly increased the prominence of riffles and pools in the reach and improved aquatic habitat within the Site. Success criteria dictate that an average density of 320 stems per acre must be surviving after five monitoring years in accordance with North Carolina Division of Water Quality Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02B.0242 (Meuse River Basin, Mitigation Program for Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Buffers) (NCDWQ 2007). Based on the number of stems counted, average densities were measured at 496 planted stems per acre surviving in year 3 (2011). The dominant species identified at the Site were planted stems of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), and sycamore (Platanus occidentalis). All individual plots met success criteria based on planted stems alone. On March 25, 2011, the EEP completed supplemental planting at the Site with a total of 130 five- gallon and 35 ten - gallon sized containerized plants consisting of Carolina ash (Fraxinus caroliniana), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), persimmon (Diospyros virginiana), red maple (Acer rubrum), red oak (Quercus rubra), river birch (Betula nigra), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), white oak (Quercus alba), and elderberry (Sambucus canadensis). In addition, three large willow oaks (located on the Goose Creek (final) Axiom Environmental, Inc. Monitoring Year 3 of 5 (2011) EEP Project Number 147 August 2011 Durham County, North Carolina page i downstream/northem reach) that had succumbed to the stress of old age and drought were removed by the City of Durham with the approval of EEP. Noted vegetation problem areas within the Site, depicted on Figures 2A -213 (Appendix A), include the development of invasive species such as Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense) scattered along the northern/downstream reach between Liberty Street and Holloway Street. Other invasive species include small patches of Japanese hops (Humulus japonicas) just north of the Liberty Street bridge on the right bank and adjacent to the left bank of the western tributary to the southern/upstream reach. Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) and Japanese privet (Ligustrum japonicum) are located just north of the stonmwater wetland and adjacent to the fence just south of the tributary to the southem/upstream reach coming from the west. Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) is located at the very southeastern corner of the Site and has spread rapidly over the past year•, some treatment/control of this species occurred earlier in the monitoring year by cutting plants to remove the seed source. In addition, scattered stems of Bradford pear (Pyres calleryana), white mulberry (Morus alba), wintercreeper (Euonymous fortunei), and multiflora rose (Rosa multiffora) are located adjacent to the southern/upstream reach. Wisteria (Wisteria frutescens) is located just north of Liberty Street on the right bank adjacent to the bridge; this is not an invasive species but can be problematic due to its growth habits and potential to shade or girdle planted trees. Currently, invasive species within the Site are not affecting planted tree stem survival or growth and are therefore expected to be shaded out as planted trees mature; however, they will continue to be watched throughout the monitoring period. In addition, an area of sparse herbaceous survival and stunted vegetative growth in the southernmost area of the Site as the result of poor soils. Success criteria for stream restoration reaches dictate that little to no change from the as-built channel occur over the monitoring period. Year 3 (2011) monitoring measurements indicate that there have been minimal changes in cross - sections and profile downstream of Liberty Street as compared to as-built data. The stream profile upstream of Liberty Street was designed to adjust itself to changes in watershed flows. A total of seven bankfull events are documented to have occurred at the Site with three events in year 1 (2009), three events in year 2 (2010), and one event occurring so far during the year 3 (2011) monitoring period. Noted stream problem areas within the Site include two areas of bank erosion (one on the right bank and one on the left bank) between Cross- sections 5 and 6 (Figure 2B, Appendix A). Rocks from the existing structures have fallen into the stream; however, the compromised structures are not affecting stream stability. Proactive measures are not recommended at this time; however, these areas will continue to be watched throughout the monitoring period. In summary, the Site achieved success criteria for vegetation and stream attributes in the Third Monitoring Year (2011). Summary information and data related to the occurrence of items such as beaver or encroachment and statistics related to performance of various project and monitoring elements can be found in tables and figures within this report's appendices. Narrative background and supporting information formerly found in these reports can be found in the mitigation and restoration plan documents available on EEPs website. All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices are available from EEP upon request. Goose Creek (final) Axiom Environmental, Inc.

Sampling was conducted for year 3 (2011) on June 20, 2011 as outlined in the CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.0 (Lee et al. 2006) ( http: / /cvs.bio.unc.edu /methods.htm); results are included in Appendix C. The taxonomic standard for vegetation used for this document was Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, Georgia, and Surrounding Areas (Weakley 2007). The locations of vegetation monitoring plots are depicted on Figure 2 in Appendix A. Visual assessments were completed on June 23, 2011 for year 3 (2011). 2.2 Stream Assessment Eight permanent cross - sections were established after construction was completed. Measurements of each cross - section include points at all breaks in slope including top of bank, bankfull, and thalweg. Riffle cross - sections are classified using the Applied Fluvial Morphology (Rosgen 1996) stream classification system. Longitudinal profile measurements of the entire Site restoration reaches include thalweg and water surface; with each measurement taken at the head of facets (i.e. riffle, run, pool, and glide) in addition to the maximum pool depth. Visual assessment of in- stream structures was conducted to determine if failure has occurred. Failure of a structure may be indicated by collapse of the structure, undermining of the structure, abandonment of the channel around the structure, and/or stream flow beneath the structure. Stream measurements were completed on February 9, 2011 and March 25, 2011 and are included in Appendix D. Visual assessments were completed on March 25, 2011 and June 23, 2011 for year 3 (2011). 3.0 REFERENCES Lee, Michael T., R.K. Peet, S.D. Roberts, and T.R. Wentworth. 2006.
