Summary The Modhn Property Wetland Mitigation Site is a riverine wetland project located on Poplar Chapel Road near Jamesville, in Martin County, North Carolina It was constructed by Albemarle Restorations, LLC, under contract with EEP to provide compensatory wetland Mitigation credits in the Roanoke River Basin Construction activities, in accordance with the approved restoration plan, began October 13, 2006, and were completed on March 12, 2007 Tree and shrub planting on the project site occurred between April 1 st and 4`h, 20071 In this, the fifth year of monitoring, hydrology has been successfully restored to the site, including the previously problematic area around Gauge 1 that was subsoiled Im 2010 The planted stems are well established and growing at an acceptable rate now that they have crowns above the heavy herbaceous layer Hydrologic monitoring began in 2007 with the installation of six water level monitoring gauges at varying elevations throughout the site to measure subsurface water elevations In 2010 it was determined that the soils around Gauge 1 were compacted and prohibiting successful hydrology so the area (approximately 5 acres) was subsoded and replanted Gauges 1 A and IIB were added to the area to determine the success of the treatment Evidence from those 3 gauges shows that subsoiling did correct the soil compaction and drastically improved hydrology All three gauges, 1, IA and 1B showed a successful 5% hydroperiod in 2010, but not until after that year's monitoring report was submitted The charts in this report have been updated to reflect the successful 2010 hydroperiods for those three gauges All 8 gauges recorded two successful hydroperiods during the 2011 growing season which indicates that the site's hydrology has been successfully restored Albemarle Restorations intends to monitor the hydrology for an additional year to confirm these results Four vegetative monitoring plots were installed and permanently monumented, one coincident with monitoring gauges 1 -4, such that both forested and shrub /scrub vegetative communities are represented Each plot is a 10m X 10m square, as recommended by the CVS -EEP Protocol for recording vegetation sampling All four plots met the year 5 success criterion o 260 living planted stems per acre this year, a success rate of 100% Table ES -1 shows the levels of success attained by each of the water level monitoring gauges and the vegetation plots since monitoring began Success criterion for hydrology is 8% of the growing season (21 days) Table C -1 in Appendix C has the actual number of days of hydrologic success Success criterion for the vegetation plots is 260 live stems per acre (the year 5 level of survival) Table ES 1 Project Success Summary I Gauge lon est

Mitigation Project was to create a riverine wetland system typically found in the middle to upper reaches of first or zero order tributary systems The project is to serve as compensation for wetland loss in the Roanoke River Basin The mitigation plan was developed and implemented to eliminate pattern drainage and restore topography and hydrology that more closely resembled that of similar undisturbed land Construction resulted in the development of a broad, frequently flooded swamp run following the historical path as evidenced by aerial photographs and signature topography Subsequent planting was designed to restore a wetland forest ecosystem that is typically found in the immediate area characteristic of similar soils, topography and hydrology The specific project goals and objectives include 1) Provide floodflow attenuation 2) Water quality improvement through sediment, toxicant and nutrient retention and reduction 3) Slow over bank flow rates and provide storage and desynchromzation of flood waters 4) Alleviate downstream flooding issues by lessening the effect of pulse or flashy flows 5) Provide shading through forest cover to reduce algae growth and associated low dissolved oxygen levels in surface water moving through the site 6) The production and export of food sources 7) The creation of wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities 20 Project Structure, Restoration Type, and Approach Table I lists the estimated wetland acreage to be restored on the Modhn Property The mitigation plan provides for the restoration of 40 0 acres of riverine wetlands Prior to construction, the 40 0 acre easement area was used entirely for row crop agriculture, primarily soy beans and cotton A drainage ditch, built in the 1970's, divided the project area and provided drainage of the seasonally high water table to allow the agricultural uses Construction activities, in accordance with the approved restoration plan, began in October, 2006 with the removal of existing hedgerows from within the project area Some of the whole trees found in the hedgerows were placed along the length of the restored swamp run to facilitate water retention and to provide wildlife habitat Also included as part of the water retention strategy is a low berm, approximately three quarters of the way down the swamp run that functions like a natural ridge within a swamp by creating a "pinch- point ", which helps create back - flooding across the restored floodplain In its entirety, the project functions as a broad hardwood flat that is subject to seasonal periodic flooding The lower end of the swamp run retains water for longer periods which contributes to the vegetation diversity, as does the increase in site elevation moving laterally away from the run Other topographical features include irregular depressions that remain flooded or wet for most of the year Modlin Property Wetland Mitigation Project 2 Albemarle Restorations LLC 2011 Monitoring

The Modhn project was planned to include various plant communities The Palustrine emergent (PEM) wetland zone immediately adjacent to the drainage course and other isolated depressions are populated by vegetation consisting primarily of herbaceous material, grasses, sedges and other hydrophytic plants Beyond the emergent zone is the Palustrine shrub /scrub (PSS) community consisting of a mixture of woody shrubs interspersed with trees The emphasis in this zone is on the shorter, scrubby vegetation typical of lower areas of native branch bottoms and poorly dramed, broad hardwood flats The outer, largest Palustrine forested (PFO) zone was planted to a mixture of trees and shrubs, but with the emphasis on trees The species mix was based on the vegetation noted at the two reference sites and all species are classified from FAC to OBL (Table V) The site was planted at a rate of 350 stems per acre in the spring of 2007 Due to poor survival attributed to the drought conditions experienced during the first growing season, replacement planting and supplemental planting took place in the winter of 2008 The species used were chosen from Table V Approximately 5 acres around Gauges 1, IA and 1B were replanted in the winter of 2011 after subsoding that area to improve hydrology Table V Species by Commumty Type Modlin Property Wetland Mitigation Pro ect/EEP #D050241

four plots met the Year 5 success criterion of a minimum of 260 stems per acre Over the entire project, the survival rate averaged 516 live stems per acre A total of 8 different species were tallied in September of 2011 Willow oak (Q phellos) and bald cypress (T distichum) are the most frequently found species Rainfall data collected on site show total precipitation for January through the middle of October 2011 to be very close to normal with a 2 87" cumulative surplus The growth data will indicate what the photos in Appendix C attempt to show in that the planted stems are well developed and growing at a faster rate now that they have larger, taller tops Many of the shrubs are bearing fruit and some of the trees are showing substantial gams in height 12 Vegetation Monitoring Plan View (Integrated) Figure 4 in Appendix D illustrates an area of the site where the hydrology was causing some concern The problem was corrected with subsoihng and that area was replanted in the winter of 2011 20 Wetland Assessment The hydrologic success criterion is to achieve a nummum of 21 consecutive days where the groundwater level is within 12 inches of the soil surface during the growing season The growing season for this site is from March 10 to November 20, a period of 255 days (WETS Table for Wdlnamston, Martin County, NC) Success for any particular monitoring location is to show sort saturation to within 12 inches of the surface for 21 consecutive days during that period There are eight continuous water level monitoring devices deployed across the site (Gauges 1 -6, IA and 1B) to monitor fluctuations in the water table within the project area A rain gauge is also kept onsite and its data are compared to that collected at the NOAA cooperator site in Willimaston, NC To further gauge the affect of seasonal and annual variations in precipitation in restored wetlands, hydrologic success of the site was assessed in relation to the reference wetland site (Gauge 7) 21 Wetland Discussion Rainfall patterns in 2011 were close to normal in total from January through October, but as of the end of May, there was a slightly larger rainfall deficit in 2011 than in previous years of monitoring Yet hydrology patterns this year indicate much better penetration and recharge rates than in previous years which might indicate that soil porosity is steadily improving Evidence of this might be inferred from the greatly improved hydrology around Gauges 1, IA and 1B after subsoihng in 2010 Of particular interest is the fact that all 8 gauges showed two successful hydroperiods during the 2011 growing season Only Gauge 1A failed to show a hydroperiod of 21 days or more (8% of Modlm Property Wetland Mitigation Project 11 Albemarle Restorations LLC 2011 Monitoring Year 5 of 5 the growing season) Its longest hydroperiod was 19 days (7 5% of the growing season) Gauge 1 had a 22 -day hydroperiod in 2011 Prior to the corrective subsoiling, its longest hydroperiod was 9 days It is clear that wetland hydrology has been restored and will continue to improve as the soil structure improves with vegetation growth and root development As such, AR will monitor the hydrology for an additional year in order to confirm the success 22 Wetland Monitoring Plan View (Integrated) Figure 4 in Appendix D provides an overview of the site The area shaded in green on the plan view indicates where subsoiling took place in the fall of 2010 Hydrologic problems in that area have been corrected and it is functioning as well as the remainder of the site Table VI shows that at the 5% level, hydrology across the site was entirely successful Table VI Hydrology and Vegetation Criteria Success by Plot Modlin Property Wetland Nbttgatio n Pro ect/EEP #D050241 Gauge 8% Hydrology Success Met

shown its best hydrologic record to date Cumulative rainfall from January through October was very close to normal with a 2 87" surplus and the entire project area showed two successful hydroperiods The swamp run held water for most of the year and there was some evidence of flow across the internal berm near the outfall of the project The planted stems appear to be well established and developing well, with many of the herbaceous plants bearing fruit Growth should continue to accelerate now that many of the stems have crowns above the highly competitive herbaceous layer III
