riparian (i a Carolina Bay) wetland restoration, thirty -one (31) acres consist of non - riparian pocosin wetland enhancement, and 225 acres consists of pocosin wetland preservation Construction of this section was completed in March 2011 Work included earthwork, planting of characteristic non - riparian pocosin trees and the installation of monitoring devices Per the approved restoration plan, monitoring of the site includes the assessment of both hydrologic and vegetative conditions over the course of a seven year monitoring period Following the completion of the earthwork, a total of seven (7) permanent 010 acre plots were established throughout the planted and restored (i a former) 3 -ac roadway corridor A total of thirteen (13) automated shallow groundwater monitoring wells were installed within the 291 -ac project area Of these wells, seven (7) were paired with vegetation plots along the restored roadway corridor, four (4) were installed within the enhancement areas in proximity to the plugged lateral ditching, and two (2) were installed in the middle of the blocks (outside of lateral ditching influence) representing the reference pocosin wetland area on the mitigation site An additional well (Well 5A) was installed on February 8th, 2012 in order to determine if roadbed material was influencing the groundwater levels within Plot #5 Wells have collected data from March 2011 through the present Annual monitoring was conducted in September 2012 at each of the seven (7) plots A total of 583 individuals of the planted species were counted throughout the seven (7) plots, which correlates to an average of 833 stems /acre within the project area (Table 2) Of the twelve (12) restoration and enhancement wells, eight (8) have met the targeted wetland hydrology during the second growing season In light of the drought conditions throughout the early 2012 growing season (and Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 1 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) associated lack of hydrologic input subsequent to ditch backfilling /plugging), groundwater hydrology still appears to have been sufficiently recharged across much of the site as evidenced by the hydrologic data collected through 2012 2.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW Section One of the Barra Farm Phase II Restoration Project (encompassing 291 acres of the 1,838 -ac project area) was initiated in March 2011 (Figure 1) Refer to Figure 2 for a depiction of the four sections of Phase II and corresponding mitigation type and quantity Of the 291 acres, 33 acres consist of non- nparian (i a Carolina Bay) wetland restoration, 31 acres consist of non - riparian pocosin wetland enhancement, while the balance (225 acres) consists of pocosin wetland preservation Restoration activities included earthwork (grading and removal of central access road, partial backfilling of roadside ditches, disking of access road, installation of clay plugs, etc ), planting of characteristic non - riparian pocosin trees, and the installation of groundwater monitoring devices (Figure 3) Work was completed in accordance with the approved restoration plan (entitled Barra Farms Phase 11 Wetland Mitigation Bank Wetland Mitigation Plan, revision dated July 19, 2010), the U S Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Nationwide Permit 27 (Action ID# 2009 - 00189) with attached conditions (issued September 20, 2010), and the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) 401 Water Quality Certification (DWQ Project #04 -0325, Ver 2) with attached conditions (issued September 23, 2010) 3.0 MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Annual monitoring is being conducted near the end of each growing season for a period of seven years This monitoring includes both a vegetative and hydrologic component per the approved restoration plan The vegetative component for Section One includes an assessment of the conditions within each of the seven (7) permanent monitoring plots that have been established throughout the project area (Figure 4) Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 2 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) The hydrologic component of the monitoring employs a total of fourteen (14) shallow groundwater monitoring wells which record water table levels on a daily basis (Figure 4) Data from this equipment are downloaded every three months (i a once quarterly) and graphed with appropriate local precipitation totals and WETS table information to determine if the site has met the established hydrologic success criteria The success criteria for both components of the annual monitoring are defined below Note that the target communities in Section One of the project are discussed in Section 28 A. Wetland Restoration Success Criteria The wetland restoration effort will be evaluated based upon performance criteria related to vegetative density and wetland hydrology Please note that individuals of non - planted characteristic wetland species may volunteer into the restored area Suitable volunteers serve as indicators of appropriate hydrologic regimes and provide increased diversity This diversity in plant species is essential to restoring the microhabitats and varied food sources present in natural wetland systems Therefore, suitable volunteers may be counted towards the established success criteria upon discretion of the IRT The proposed success criteria for the restored areas of Barra 11 are 1 Demonstrated density of planted species to meet or exceed 320 trees per acre at the end of three years (post - planting), 260 trees per acre at the end of five years, and 210 (seven- year old) character canopy tree species per acre at the end of seven years The IRT may allow for the counting of acceptable volunteer species toward the 210 -tree per acre density upon the review and evaluation of the annual monitoring data 2 If, within the first three years, any species exhibits greater than 50% mortality, the species will either be re- planted or an acceptable replacement species will be planted in its place 3 No single volunteer species (most notably red maple, loblolly pine, and sweet gum) will comprise more than 50% of the total composition at Year 2 or Year 3 If this occurs, remedial action, as approved by the Interagency Review Team, may be required During Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 3 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) Year 4 and Year 5, no single volunteer species, comprising 50% of the total composition, may be more than twice the height of the planted species If this occurs, remedial action, as approved by the IRT, may be required to be implemented The need to conduct additional volunteer sampling after Year 5 will be determined by the IRT 4 The hydrologic criterion is premised on the specific community to be restored a for the pocosin community, the hydrologic cntenon will be the establishment of a static water table at, or within, 12" of the soil surface for 15% of the growing season Hydrology monitoring shall be undertaken from Web through 30Nov of each monitoring year On Web, soil temperature at three of the monitoring plots will be measured at 12 inches below the soil surface and documented within the monitoring report Should earlier monitoring be considered, the project sponsor must also document biological activity on the site pursuant to the applicable Regional Supplement to the 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual Earlier monitoring must be approved by the U S Army Corps of Engineers prior to commencement b for the wet pine savannah community, the hydrologic cntenon will be the establishment of a static water table at or within 12" of the soil surface for 6% of the growing season Hydrology monitoring shall be undertaken from Web through 30Nov of each monitoring year On Web, soil temperature at three of the monitoring plots will be measured at 12 inches below the soil surface and documented within the monitoring report Should earlier monitoring be considered, the project sponsor must also document biological activity on the site pursuant to the applicable Regional Supplement to the 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual Earlier monitoring must be approved by the U S Army Corps of Engineers prior to commencement B. Non - Riparian Wetland Enhancement Success Criteria A total of 31 ac of pocosin habitat has been targeted for wetland enhancement in Section One These areas are located directly adjacent to those targeted for restoration in forested sections of Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 4 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) the tract As these areas currently maintain a suitable density of appropriate vegetative species, enhancement will occur by re- establishing the characteristic groundwater hydrology Natural hydropenods had been previously compromised by the lateral ditches and collector canals (pre - restoration) Completion of the earthwork (e g removal of roadbeds and plugging of outlet ditches), has resulted in the re- establishment of hydropenods more characteristic of relatively undisturbed pocosin habitat The hydrologic success criterion for these areas is identical to the pocosin wetland restoration portion of the project The hydrologic criterion for the non- npanan pocosin enhancement will be the establishment of a static water table at, or within, 12" of the soil surface for 15% of the growing season. Hydrology monitoring shall be undertaken from Web through 30Nov of each monitoring year Soil temperatures will be measured at 12 inches below the sod surface at three restoration wells (as indicated within the restoration success cntena) Should earlier monitoring be considered, the project sponsor must also document biological activity on the site pursuant to the applicable Regional Supplement to the 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual Earlier monitoring must be approved by the U S Army Corps of Engineers prior to commencement 4.0 MONITORING RESULTS (YEAR 2) A. Vegetation Monitoring A total of 583 individuals of the planted species were counted throughout the seven (7) plots, which correlated to an average of 833 - stems /acre within the project area (Table 2) Bald cypress was the most abundant woody species, with a total of 223 individuals Other planted species such as black gum, pond pine, and Atlantic white cedar were also prevalent within the monitored plots In addition to the planted species, numerous volunteers were also observed within each plot A majority of these individuals were representative of the target vegetative communities, including red bay (Persea palustns), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), and loblolly bay (Gordorna lasianthus) Shrub species such as fetterbush (Lyonta lucida) and sweet pepper bush (Clethra alrnfolia) were also observed Table 2 and Table 2A provide species composition by plot for both planted and Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 5 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) volunteer species, respectively It should be noted that red maple (Acer rubrum) trees are prevalent in the adjacent, existing wetland areas Based upon monitoring during Year 2, it is apparent that red maple will be volunteering into the restored, planted area The density of the red maple will continue to be monitored Overall, it is likely that the vegetative composition (including planted and observed volunteers) will be characteristic of the target Carolina bay wetland community If it appears as though red maples are adversely affecting the survivorship of planted species, then the Sponsor will consult with the IRT for implementation of appropriate contingency measures (i e targeted herbicide application) if deemed appropriate Of particular note during Year 2 annual monitoring was the decreased density of herbaceous vegetation in the plots During Year 1 monitoring, many plots exhibited dense herbaceous growth (Pan►cum spp) covering the smaller planted seedlings While most planted tree seedlings remained unaffected by the dense herbaceous growth, some of the smaller planted material (particularly pond pine (P►nus serohna) seedlings) was susceptible to mortality between planting and Year 1 monitoring However, there was limited mortality of pond pine between Year 1 and Year 2 monitoring Mortality during Year 1 was likely attributed to a combination of dense herbaceous growth (particularly relative to the height of planted stems) and drought conditions during the growing season The combination of planted species and acceptable volunteers suggest that the site is progressing well towards the target community During the Year 2 monitoring event, each of the 7 plots exceeded the minimum success criteria and contained a variety of shrub and tree species This diversity of species will likely continue through the duration of the project due to the abundant native seed source and natural dispersal patterns These results are also encouraging given the drought conditions that followed the initial planting in March 2011 and that continued to persist until the mid -2012 growing season Monitoring data from the North Carolina Division of Water Resources Drought Monitoring website classified the drought for the early 2012 growing season as a First level drought The site returned to normal conditions from June through October, but returned to First level drought in November and December Refer to Appendix A for photographs of current site conditions and Appendix B for information regarding individual plot totals Refer to Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 6 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) Appendix D for NC Division of Water Resources Drought Maps and Appendix E for Palmer Drought Indices TABLE 1.

Hydrologic Monitoring 1 Summary of Precipitation According to regional drought indices (including the North Carolina Division of Water Resources Drought Status Monitoring Program and the Palmer Drought Index), the Barra Farms project area experienced drought conditions during the early growing season through June 2012 (or July 2012 according to the Palmer Drought Index) The NC Drought Status Maps indicate "1St Level Drought" conditions from January through May Palmer Drought Index maps indicate "Severe Drought" from January through April 2012 and "Moderate Drought' from May through July 2012 Both indices document normal rainfall conditions from August through October According to the WETS long- term climatic data, mean annual rainfall for Fayetteville, NC is 46 94 inches The WETS long -term climactic data (i e WETS table (1933- 2002)) identify a 30% chance of less than 42 42 inches and a 30% chance of more than 5014 inches (i a rainfall less than 42 42 inches is considered below normal and rainfall greater than 5014 inches is considered above normal) The nearest CRONOS Station (KFAY) recorded 4101 inches for the year, which indicates below normal rainfall for the year ( <30th percentile) The available North Carolina Drought Status Maps (NC DWR) for 2012 are included in Appendix D The Palmer Drought Indices are included in Appendix E Both appendices are provided digitally on the enclosed CD 2 Growing Season Considerations As identified in the approved mitigation plan, and based upon recent federal guidance regarding the length of the growing season in the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain Region (as detailed in the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain Region), biological indicators and soil temperature data often indicate that the growing season of a particular county may be longer than that identified in WETS tables As a result, the state Interagency Review Team (IRT) has recommended the use of a growing season beginning February 1 and ending November 30 of each year (unless site - specific data indicate otherwise) However, the WETS - defined growing season for the nearest station (Fayetteville, NC) is March 15 through November 20 (determined via long -term climatic data) Supplemental tables (evaluating hydropenods from March 15 through November 20) are provided for informational purposes Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 8 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) 3 Year 2 Annual Mondonng Per the approved mitigation plan, a total of thirteen (13) shallow groundwater monitoring wells were installed throughout the site at the outset of the monitoring (March 2011) These wells included seven (7) restoration wells, four (4) enhancement wells, and two (2) reference wells Subsequent to ditch backfilling and plugging, static water levels gradually increased and rates of discharge from the site decreased During the first monitoring season, eleven (11) of the thirteen (13) wells met the hydrologic success despite the moderate to severe drought during the growing season During the Year 2 monitoring (2012), four of the seven restoration wells met the hydrologic success criterion despite the severe to moderate drought during the early to mid - growing season (Table 3A) All four enhancement wells met the hydrologic criterion and one of the two reference wells met the hydrologic criterion It should be noted that when analyzed under the WETS - defined growing season (March 15- November 20), every well exhibited a minimum hydropenod of 5% of the growing season Undisturbed pocosin wetlands exhibit hydropenods of variable duration as evidenced by the two reference wells located on -site Both reference wells are located within mapped Croatan sod units of the Carolina bay However, one reference well exhibited a hydropenod of 9% (equivalent to 22 consecutive days) while the other reference well exhibited a 25% hydropenod (equivalent to 72 consecutive days) This may be attributed to variations in microtopography or soil texture of the specific well location Hydrology has been documented to vary across the site pending the location of wells within the bay, but appear to be consistent with non- nverine pocosin wetlands typically occurring on the outer Coastal Plain It should be noted that the wells which did not meet the hydrologic criterion exhibited similar hydroperiods to Reference Well #1 This is believed to be a result of a severe groundwater deficit and severe drought during the early to mid - growing season Overall, observed discharge rates (as depicted by the slope of the hydrograph) are characteristic of reduced drainage and increased hydrologic residency Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 9 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) Table 2A.

(Section One) Prior to the Year 2 growing season, Well #5A was installed within Plot #5 to compare to Well #5 hydrologic data During the Year 1 monitoring period, data from Well #5 appeared to be inconsistent with observed conditions of the area Readings were believed to be influenced by the material of the underlying road bed which has a layer of impermeable material potentially influencing lateral groundwater movement Observations from unlined bore holes suggested this may be the case Although Well #5A did not meet the 15% success criteria, data collected during the Year 2 monitoring period show a 100% increase in consecutive days within 12- inches of the surface as compared to Well #5 These data, in combination with unlined borehole observations, suggest that material within the roadbed may be influencing lateral groundwater movement in the vicinity of Well #5 A summary of these results are provided in Table 3 Complete hydrologic monitoring data are provided in Appendix C NC Division of Water Resources Drought maps are provided in Appendix D The Palmer Drought Indices are included in Appendix E 5.0 Conclusion Based on the data collected in conjunction with the Year 2 monitoring event, the site appears to be progressing well towards the target pocosin (Carolina bay) community Hydrologic data confirm the re- establishment of hydrology characteristic of the target habitat as a result of the earthwork and plug installation completed during the early 2011 growing season While there was a significant groundwater deficit during the growing season, a hydrologic response was evident with normal precipitation in the mid -to -late growing season Water table depths were observed at levels at or near the surface for extended periods Restoration and enhancement wells exhibited similar hydropenods to that of the reference wetlands Though a total of five wells (including one reference well) did not meet the 15% criterion, all but one exhibited a 6% or longer wetland hydropenod during the growing season These data support the restoration of key hydrologic functions relating to water storage and groundwater recharge within the system Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 12 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report (Section One) Plot monitoring within the restored roadway pocosin corridor indicates low mortality rates of planted trees and shrubs While average stem densities on all of the plots are sufficient to meet the applicable success criteria, pond pine experienced the highest mortality out of the planted trees (likely as a result of drought and overtopping by dense grass during Year 1) However, the surviving individuals exhibited good vigor at the Year 2 monitoring event, and all other planted species exhibited an increased in observed stems (due to the ability to more readily locate and identify during monitoring) The vegetative component of the project appears to be progressing well as evidenced by the growth and survivorship of planted species and the recruitment of characteristic volunteer species Each of the seven (7) plots exceeded the minimum success criteria during the Year 2 monitoring event Observed heights ranged from 1' to 15' among the planted and volunteer individuals, suggesting that conditions within the restored pocosin are suitable for healthy vegetative composition and growth The prevalence of red maple along the edges of the plots will continue to be monitored Herbicide treatment may be considered (in consultation with the IRT) if it is believed that red maple will adversely affect the vegetative structure of the restored pocosin At this time, it is the opinion of LMG that red maple will not significantly impact the long term vegetative composition of the target wetland community since it is a pioneer species and prevalent in nearly all pocosin wetlands Overall, Year 2 monitoring indicates that the site is trending toward success as evidenced by the survivorship and growth of planted species and the hydrologic response subsequent to the earthwork performed during the early 2011 growing season Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank 13 Year 2 — Annual Monitoring Report
