L. Kichefski@usace. army.mil) Subject: RE: Trout Lake status and survey Barbara, I sampled Morgan Creek with Gus and Dick this AM and did not find any trout; just a few adult river chubs and green sunfish. I also sampled short reach of the Little River by the POA office /meeting room and only picked up a couple of river chub and a redbreast sunfish. In 2006, a WRC crew found rainbow trout in the same location. After sampling, I went downstream about mile below the post office (about a mile or so downstream of Morgan Creek) and saw a couple rainbow trout, so there are still some hanging on in there. Anyway, I believe the trout moratorium requirement of the 404 permit can be waived given the updated fish distribution information and the plan to only draw down the lake partially (to the "mid - level" drain) to maintain a sediment trap in the lake bed. Thanks for your patience and the opportunity to take a better look at the fish out there. Regarding the fish community, I wasn't too surprised to see the chub /sunfish mix, we see that in many high elevation streams in and around Cashiers and Highlands areas due to the thermal impacts of lakes and ponds. What was surprising was the lack of small /juvenile fish of any kind; I don't know what that could be a result of. Should the dam of Trout Lake ever need repair work again, then the POA may want to consider operating the mid -level valve as a partial outflow (or other mechanism) to reduce the summer temperatures in Morgan Creek and the Little River near the confluence. Please forward me the PCN once it is revised and I will promptly respond with a letter and any suggestions for completing the dredging project.

Cc: 'Gus Napier' Subject: RE: Trout Lake status and survey Dave — thanks for the update. Yes, we think the impact should be much lessened due to the standing water and the community commitment to daily monitoring of lake and lake level. I was also wondering if the cold in February would assist in lessening the erosion of exposed frozen ground as versus the spring rains on the warm soils. Have you any idea whether that could help or if it makes any difference at all? We know it will help the trackhoe in maneuvering based on conversations with the contractors — holds the ground together better — so the thought came up does that help in lowering the runoff potential too? I think the biggest protection is speed of the removal — to get in and get out as soon as possible. The community has that as a high priority, no matter when the project will take place. Contact next week — Dick Charmley and Gus Napier are the contacts — both are out of town this week but available by email. Dick should be back next week and available by phone.

The district biologist wants to verify the bkt report below the lake; as mentioned in the meeting we only have records for rainbow trout in Little River near Morgan, in which case we would normally ask for the Jan 1 to April 15 moratorium to apply (instead of Oct 15 start) to projects that will disturb spawning habitat, either directly or indirectly through downstream sedimentation. The potential for indirect from this project should be lessened, when compared to similar projects, due to the "mid - level" outlet drain, assuming the height of the drain is and stays above the sediment level in the pool. I will try to get out there next week to sample. Can you please relay me the contact information out there so I can give a heads -up?

TROUT LAKE EXCAVATION BACKGROUND Trout Lake, originally called Judson Lake, and later called Hemlock Lake, is in the Sherwood Forest subdivision approximately ten miles south of Brevard off Highway 276 (the Greenville Highway) The Lake is owned by the Sherwood Forest Homeowner's Association, which is governed by a Board of Directors, the Lakes and Dams Committee is advisory to the Board and responsible for monitoring and maintaining the five lakes in the subdivision The lake was built in approximately 1928 and has been receiving runoff for over 80 years The 1000 -acre development is heavily wooded, and approximately 50% of its area is protected forest, which has limited the amount of siltation that the lake has received Though the concrete dam was re -built during the 1990s and is in excellent condition, no soil has ever been removed from the Lake Since the year 2000, when a survey of the various depths of Trout Lake was done, there has been major work on the four dams above this lake The result of this activity has been increased siltation in Trout, despite efforts to prevent that occurrence At present the lake is very shallow, and during warm weather it is choked with water shield, particularly around its perimeter The purpose of the de- silting is to discourage the growth of invasive aquatic plants and to achieve greater water depths that will make the lake more functional for boating, fishing, and swimming Some lakeshore property owners cannot use the lake from their docks because of its shallowness The lake is fed principally by Morgan Creek, which is a fairly active stream and which enters the lake on its southeast comer An unnamed small stream enters from the adjacent (southwest) comer In the northeast corner there is a persistently wet area, probably the site of an active spring We will conduct dry removal of soil from the northem, eastern, and southern shores and shore -edges (the bank on the western shore is fairly steep, as it borders the deepest portion of the lake and would be difficult to reach (see map of proposed project) Adequate depths remain in the deeper portions of the lake, with the deepest level around 17' We will drain the lake from the gate valve in the center of the dam, which is located 11 feet directly below the spillway The dram is only 8" in diameter, and during the de- silting it will always be active to maintain adequate water levels downstream of the dam, though it can be easily closed to prevent turbid outflow in heavy rain conditions When drained close to this maximum level, an adequate -sized pool remains for aquatic fish support, the areas most in need of de- silting are also exposed We hope to achieve a perimeter depth of three feet, tapering down to an eight -foot depth toward the center of the lake (see diagram of lake levels with estimates of soil removal in various areas) SOIL REMOVAL PROCESS Sherwood Forest has two contractors submitting proposals, both experienced in de- silting lakes We hope to perform the de- silting during February 2013, when cold temperatures may make it easier for the contractor to move within the lake bed The contractor will enter the area from the northern shore, near a paved road with easy access to Highway 276, as shown on the project map All removed silt will be hauled off -site in dump trucks The proposed disposal sites at this time will be covered under a separate E &S plan or under Agricultural Exemption Turf Mountain Sod is proposed by Edwards Landscaping as one site, located on Wilson Road, dust off of Hwy 276 outside of Brevard, NC The other proposed site is Stone Farm near Cedar Mountain, proposed by Jerry T Whitmire Grading as another site It is located at 45 Stones Lake Lane in Cedar Mountain, NC The contractor chosen for the project will be responsible for the transport and delivery of the lake sediment The disposal site E &S will be provided by either Sherwood Forest Lakes and Dam Committee, the contractor or the landowner, depending on the final site chosen Efforts are continuing to find a disposal site closer to Sherwood Forest and this package will be amended if a suitable site is located The Committee will insure that this permitting is done and that the site is well prepared An E &S plan has been contracted for the lake site with Lapsley Engineering and will be submitted to the agencies by the end of November The contractor will need to build an access road into the lake, but because of past activity in the lake, the remnants of such a structure remain He will then turn left (or east) along the shore and will construct a roadbed in the lake, proceeding around the perimeter of the lake The road will be constructed of appropriate materials and will be removed at the end of the project The temporary roadbed will require an estimated 340 cu yds of fill for construction The contractor will also use track mats and temporary culverts as needed to facilitate transit of at least one large track hoe and several off -road dump trucks within the lakebed The mayor challenge for the protect will be crossing Morgan Creek without interfering with the flow of the creek The protect will use a temporary culvert of at least 20' length to cross the creek, with soil buildup on either side of the culvert The other (small) creek will not be crossed, but excavation will be carved out in front of the area where this creek enters the lake A long -reach track hoe (75 -feet) will be positioned on the fairly shallow southern area of the lake, permitting excavation of soil in front of this small creek This southwest comer of the lake will be the termination of the work The other area of concern is the wet area in the northeast corner of the lake, and it may require drainage using another temporary culvert, or track mats may suffice to negotiate this "soggy" area We expect the work to take two to three weeks, depending on weather conditions and on the equipment available to the contractor WETLANDS PROTECTION The U S Army Corp of Engineers (COE) concerns about wetland disturbances will be addressed by only removing sediment from the current water level (normal pool level) and deeper The excavation will leave any wetlands or emergent plants undisturbed We will not enter the two streams that supply this lake nor disturb any existing wetlands TROUT WATER AND TROUT BUFFER REQUIREMENTS NC Wildlife Resources Commission staff were contacted about the protect and met to discuss any possible impact and to address the Trout Moratorium that would be involved There were questions about the species of trout that might be impacted and the length of the moratorium that would be required NCWRC staff, David McHenry, completed a site survey on October 23, 2012 (see attached Email) and determined that no trout species would be impacted by this project and that the trout moratorium could be waived based on his findings Sherwood Forest will be requesting this waiver for the project The Trout Buffer rules for the streams in Transylvania County are regulated by the Land Resources Section under NC DENR and would be in force for this project After discussions with Land Resources staff about the project and the description of the protect, it was determined that as long as the Erosion and Sediment Control plans for the lake site are approved, then a Trout Buffer waiver could be requested and granted for the project Sherwood Forest will be submitting a request for a Trout Buffer waiver after the PCN and the E &S plans have been approved WATER QUALITY CONCERNS Below Trout Lake's dam, Morgan Creek proceeds quickly to Little River We will avoid dischargmg turbid water into Little River by taking the following steps We will draw the lake down carefully and observe its outflow continuously during the de- silting We will maintain the natural course of Morgan Creek through the lakebed and traverse that course only over a culvert We will maintain a residual deep a pool in the center of the lake to allow the settling of any disturbed soil Perhaps most importantly, we will keep a sharp eye on the weather, and on any turbidity that occurs, and we will close the dram preventatively if severe rainfall is predicted While our Committee has considerable experience in dealing with both de- silting and with dam repair, we will rely on the contractor to help monitor this process We will also be working with our consultant, Barbara Wiggins, of Wiggins Environmental Services, both in the plan for the project and in its execution Our Committee will monitor and prevent any increase in turbidity more than 25 NTUs from the excavation project itself, and if the measures noted above are not adequate, we will stop the work If we have concerns about downstream turbidity, we will ask for consultation from our consultant We will maintain adequate flow into the stream below the dam to protect wildlife in that channel We are aware that NCWRC has concerns and involvement, and we are prepared to address those issues as necessary Contact Information Lakes and Dams Committee Sherwood Forest Homeowner's Association Gus Napier, Chair 626
