Project (EEP Project No 24) Page u Stantec — Momtonng Report (2011) — Final November 2011 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of Beamon's Run Riparian Wetland and Buffer Restoration project is to improve water quality by providmg a more ecologically effective and efficient riparian buffer The establishment and protection of a vegetated buffer along the floodplain of any stream provides a number of benefits, which include streambank stability from mature root systems, in- stream shade from the overhanging leaf canopy, organic detntus that fuels food chains, habitat and travel comdors for native wildlife species, and filtering of sediments and other potential pollutants from surface and subsurface flow (NCSRI, 2003) The natural riparian buffer along the project's section of Beamon's Run had been disturbed by past agricultural practices and portions of it had been used as a tire dump The tires and associated debris were removed and the buffer was planted with native wetland species to restore functionality to the buffer The primary objective of the project was to protect and improve water quality by removing and transforming pollutants with buffers and wetlands The goals as listed m the NC Wetlands Restoration Program (WRP) Project Summary were to 1 Restore agricultural land to riparian buffer to increase removal of nutrients 2 Improve wildlife habitat The conservation easement of the project is made up of two tracts Tract A encompasses 47 53 acres along the right bank of Beamon's Run (including a 2 11 acre`open pit area), Tract B encompasses 32 38 acres along the left bank of Contentnea Creek Beamon's Run is a warm water stream in the Neuse River Basin of the Coastal Plain region in Greene County, North Carolina Site investigation and design services were provided by PBS &J, Inc The records available at this time indicated that construction and the bulk of the plantmg at the site occurred over the winter of 2000 Usmg the 2000 as -built plan, areas that did -not appear to contain any of the planted species, were outside the 200' buffer limit, or exhibited a much older mature plant community were excluded from the monitoring effort Based on the revised areas, the project consists of 10 001 acres of Neuse River riparian buffer restoration, 195 feet of streambank stabilization, and 0 15 acres of wetland restoration No monitoring plan was originally prepared for this site and no monitoring program began at this site when construction was completed NCSU staff from the Biological and Agricultural Engmeenng Department and the Water Resburces Research Institute made an initial monitoring visit on October 14, 2003 They compiled the first monitoring report submitted m March of 2004 In 2009, Stantec began monitoring the site's vegetation Monitoring in 2011 revealed that 6 of the 12 plots (50 %) of plots meet planted success requirements, however, 83% of the plots have >320 planted and volunteer native hardwood stems per acre It is difficult to discern the exact reasons for poor planted species survival m the vegetation plots and elsewhere on the site smce it has been 11 years since vegetation installation During the initial assessment conducted in March 2011, several beaver dams were observed on -site near vegetation plots 3, 8A, and 12A Despite the presence of the beaver dams no recent signs of beaver activity were observed in the vegetation plots It was also noted during the initial assessment that vegetation m areas that had been previously mowed and/or damaged by beavers appears to be regenerating Plants that were resprouting from stumps as well as numerous small saplmgs of desired species were observed Beamon's Run Buffer and Wetland Restoration Project (EEP Project No 24) Page 1 Stantec — Monitoring Report (2011) — Final November 2011 The annual vegetation monitoring occurred on August 18'' and 19'', 2011 and found that little change has occurred over the past year at Beamon's Run The beaver dams are still in place near vegetation plots 3, 8A, and 12A with no recent beaver damage in the vegetation plots There was some minor damage to vegetation outside the vegetation plots that occurred from strong winds This wind damage occurred near vegetation plots 7, 8A, 9, and 10, however the only vegetation plot impacted was vegetation plot 7 Vegetation plot 7 had a tree (outside the plot) fall into the plot and on top of two planted stems, both stems are still alive and should recover without incident (see Photo 7) Areas that were previously mowed continue to regenerate, except for a small strip (-1 in wide) parallel to the farm path and inside the easement that extends approximately from vegetation plot 8A to vegetation plot 10 This area appears to have been sprayed with some type of herbicide, but did not negatively impact any vegetation plots or planted areas Common invasives onsite still include Lespedeza and Japanese honeysuckle but have not expanded since 2010 and do not seem to be a major concern for desirable vegetation establishment Lespedeza occurs along the field edges while Japanese honeysuckle is prevalent across the entire site A few areas, particularly in the eastern portions of the site, the honeysuckle is dense and could cause problems in the future Currently the mvasives are not affecting planted woody vegetation It is recommended that the mvasives continued to be monitored for potential issues in the future Credit is not being sought for the stream stabilization or wetland restoration conducted for the project Therefore, as per NCEEP, no stream assessment or hydrologic monitoring took place at the Beamon's Run Buffer and Wetland Restoration Site Summary mformation/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 the tables and figures in the report appendices Narrative background and supporting information formerly found in these reports can be found in the Baseline Monitoring Report (formerly Mitigation Plan) and in the Mitigation Plan (formerly Restoration Plan) documents available on NCEEP's website All raw

Monitoring Report (2011) — Final November 2011 !� I 0 Ll L� LI 0 0 i� 1.0 Methodology Vegetation onsite was first visually assessed to determine the general areas of viable planted vegetation Using the 2000 as -built plan, areas that did not appear to contain any of the planted species, were outside the 200' buffer limit, or exhibited a much older mature plant community were excluded from the monitoring effort These areas are shown on the maps in Appendix B The 200' buffer was taken from the normal edge of the surface water Twelve vegetative sample plots were randomly selected using GIS and established within the project easement in 2009 The plots were quantitatively monitored during the 2011 growing season on August 180' and 19`h, 2011 Species composition, density, and survival were observed during the site visit The Carolina Vegetation Survey (CVS, 2008) methodology was utilized for vegetative monitoring Level 2 (planted and natural stems) methodology was completed on all monitored plots It must be noted that due to the age of the planted species, in some plots, it was difficult to distinguish planted species from volunteers during the 2009 monitoring effort However, best professional judgment along with knowledge of project planting zones by species enabled vegetation data to be collected The planted vegetation zones included oak mix, longleaf pine, river birch, and cypress The vegetative success criteria are based on the North Carolina rule 15A NCAC 213 0242 Neuse River Basin Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy Mitigation Program for Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Buffers (2000) The final vegetative success criteria will be the survival of 320 planted native hardwood stems per acre after 5 years As per NCEEP, the cypress wetland area was only monitored for vegetation within the 200' riparian buffer, and not wetland hydrology Streams were also not monitored as part of this project Beamon s Run Buffer and Wetland Restoration
