1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The UT to Bald Creek Stream and Wetland Restoration Site (hereafter referred to as the "Site ")
is situated within the US Geological Survey (USGS) hydrologic unit 06010108 of the French
Broad River Basin and is in a portion of NC Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) Priority Sub -
basin 04 -03 -07 The Site is located in Yancey County, approximately eight miles west of the
City of Burnsville, North Carolina The Site is encompassed within a 12 74 -acre easement
located on two tracts of property Tract one is owned by Henry and Elizabeth Turner and tract
two is owned by Charles Young Jr and Deana Blanchard The Site is comprised of five
headwater tributaries originating from Mountain seeps and springs, and five adjacent streamside
wetlands (Figure 2, Appendix B) Prior to construction, upper reaches of the Site were forested
and relatively stable Downstream reaches were impacted by agriculture activities with minimal
riparian buffer This report (compiled based on the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program
(NCEEP) Procedural Guidance and Content Requirements for EEP Monitoring Reports Version
14 dated 11/7/11) summarizes data for Year 1 (2012) monitoring
The project goals (from approved Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration
Project, Final Restoration Plan [NC EEP 2009]) include the following
• Reduce erosion from within the Site
• Restore a channel capable of transporting watershed flows and sediment loads efficiently
• Improve wetland and stream aquatic habitat
• Enhance wildlife habitat
• Improve overall water quality
These goals will be accomplished through the implementation of the following objectives
• Exclude livestock from the stream in order to
• Reduce direct inputs of nutrients and fecal coliform bacteria into the stream
• Eliminate the stress on streambanks caused by hoof shear
• Plant a native riparian buffer in order to
o Provide woody root mass to stabilize the streambanks
o Filter sediment and nutrient pollutants from agricultural fields and prevent them from
entering the stream J
o Provide shade to the stream channel as a means of reducing water temperatures -
o Provide a source for woody debris and leaf litter that will enhance aquatic habitat
• Enhance existing wetlands by excluding livestock, managing invasive species, and plantmg
native wetland vegetation _
• Restore Site streams to a proper bankfull dimension and stabilize steep and eroding streambanks
• Provide Site streams with adequate flood -prone area
• Repair headcuts and establish a more diverse bed morphology with rile -pool sequences _
supported by in- stream structures
• Restore an impounded reach of stream by removing a small dam and culvert
• Create protected riparian corridors for wildlife passage
• Preserve high - quality forested headwater streams in the steeper reaches of the Site

Vegetation success criteria (from approved Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream
Restoration Project, Final Restoration Plan [NC EEP 2009]) consists of the following
"The success criteria for the preferred species in the restoration areas will be based on
annual and cumulative survival and growth over five years Survival of preferred species
must be at a minimum 320 stems - per -acre at the end of three years of monitoring and 260
stems - per -acre after five years "
During Year 1 (2012), six vegetation plots were established and monitored Overall, Site
vegetation averaged 358 stems - per -acre, which exceeds the minimum stem count for success
criteria of 320 stems - per -acre Four of the six plots met or exceeded the success criteria
Vegetation plots 2 and 4 were below success criteria with 243 stems - per -acre, each Low
planted stem survival in vegetation plots 2 and 4 may be attributed to competition from
herbaceous vegetation (primarily fescue [Festuca spp ] and tearthumb [Polygonum spp ]) In
addition, one problem area of easement encroachment has been identified adjacent to Tributary 2
(Figure 2) This area has been mowed to the stream edge, with piles of brush dumped adjacent to
the creek
Stream success criteria (from approved Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration
Project, Final Restoration Plan [ NCEEP 2009])]) consists of the following
"Monitoring shall consist of the collection and analysis of stream stability and riparian
vegetation survivability data to support the evaluation of the project in meeting
established restoration objectives "
A visual assessment and geomorphic survey were completed for the Site It is too early in the 5-
year annual monitoring period for Site measurements to determine if stream success criteria, in
- relation to restoration objectives, are being achieved However, Site reaches are conforming to
design criteria established in the Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration
Project, Final Restoration Plan ( NCEEP 2009) No significant bank erosion was recorded and
geomorphic measurements are within the range of the proposed design parameters Stream
I channels appear to be exhibiting aggradation of fine materials, possibly from surface flows
across the adjacent floodplain and extensive herbaceous vegetation growth within the channel
bed Currently, aggradation does not appear to present a problem, however, continued
observation throughout the monitoring period should determine if the system is able to flush
aggraded material
Summary information/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 Baseline Monitoring Report
(formerly Mitigation Plan) and in the Mitigation Plan (formerly the Restoration Plan) documents
available on NCEEPs website All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices
is available from NCEEP upon request

2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Vegetation Assessment
Six vegetation plots were established and marked during the Year 1 (2012) monitoring period
Plots were established by installing 4 -foot, metal U -bar post at the corners and a 10 -foot, 0 75
inch PVC at the ongin The plots are 10 meters square and are located randomly within the Site
These plots were surveyed in December for the Year 1 (2012) monitoring season using methods
outlined in CTS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Levels 1 -2 Plot Sampling Only,
Version 4 2 (Lee et al 2008) (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
Southern and Mid- Atlantic States (Weakley 2012)
2.2 Stream Assessment
Annual stream monitoring was conducted in December of 2012 with additional supplementary
measurements conducted in February of 2013 Measurements were taken using a Topcon GTS
303 total station and Recon data collector The raw total station file was processed using Carlson
Survey Software into a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file Coordinates were exported as a
text /ASCII file to Microsoft Excel for processing and presentation of data Pebble counts were
completed using the modified Wolman method (Rosgen 1993) One crest gauge (PVC with
wooden staff gauge and cork filings) was installed in the lower, downstream third of the Site
Annual stream monitoring was conducted in December 2012 and February 2013 Six permanent
cross - sections, three riffle and three pool, were established and will be used to evaluate stream
dimension, locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) Cross - sections are permanently
monumented with 5 -foot metal t -posts at each end point Cross - sections will be surveyed to
provide a detailed measurement of the stream and banks including points on the adjacent
floodplain, top of bank, bankfull, breaks in slope, edge of water, and thalweg Data will be used
to calculate width -depth ratios, entrenchment ratios, and bank height ratios for each cross -
section In addition, a pebble count was completed at cross - section 2 and photographs will be
taken at each permanent cross - section location annually
Six stream monitoring reaches were established and will be used to evaluate stream pattern and
longitudinal profile, locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) Measurement of channel -
pattern will include belt - width, meander length, and radius of curvature (only in year one)
Subsequently, data will be used to calculate meander -width ratios Longitudinal profile
measurements will include average water surface slopes and facet slopes and pool -to -pool
spacing Twenty two permanent photo points were established throughout the restoration reach
(12 fixed photo points, 4 cross - section photo points, and 6 vegetation plot photo points),
locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) and are included in Appendix B In addition,
visual stream morphology stability assessments will be completed in four monitoring reaches
annually to assess the channel bed, banks, and in- stream structures

= Enter the planted acreage within the easement. This number is calculated as the easement acreage minus any existing mature tree stands that were not subject to supplemental planting of the understory, the channel'
acreage, crossings or any other elements not directly planted as part of the project effort.
= The acreage within the easement boundaries
= Encroachment may occur within or outside of planted areas and will therefore be calculated against the overall easement acreage. In the event a polygon is cataloged into items 1, 2 or 3 in the table and is the result of
encroachment, the associated acreage should be tallied in the relevant item (i.e., item 1,2 or 3) as well as a parallel tally in item 5.
= Invasives may occur in or out of planted areas, but still within the easement and will therefore be calculated against the overall easement acreage. Invasives of concern /interest are listed below. The list of high concern
spcies are those with the potential to directly outcompete native, young, woody stems in the short-term (e.g. monitoring period or shortly thereafter) or affect the community structure for existing, more established tree /shrub
stands over timeframes that are slightly longer (e.g. 1 -2 decades). The low /moderate concern group are those species that generally do not have this capacity over the timeframes discussed and therefore are not expected to be
mapped with regularity, but can be mapped, if in the judgement of the observer their coverage, density or distribution is suppressing the viability, density, or growth of planted woody stems. Decisions as to whether remediation
will be needed are based on the integration of risk factors by EEP such as species present, their coverage, distribution relative to native biomass, and the practicality of treatment. For example, even modest amounts of Kudzu or
Japanese Knotweed early in the projects history will warrant control, but potentially large coverages of Microstegium in the herb layer will not likley trigger control because of the limited capacities to impact tree /shrub layers within
the timeframes discussed and the potential impacts of treating extensive amounts of ground cover. Those species with the 'Watch list' designator in gray shade are of interest as well, but have yet to be observed across the state
with any frequency. Those in are of particular interest given their extreme risk/threat level for mapping as points where isolated specimens are found, particularly ealry in a projects monitoring history. However, areas
of discreet, dense patches will of course be mapped as polygons, The symbology scheme below was one that was found to be helpful for symbolzing invasives polygons, particulalry for situations where the conditon for an area
is somewhere between isolated specimens and dense, discreet patches. In any case, the point or polygon /area feature can be symbolized to describe things like high or low concern and species can be listed as a map inset, in
legend items if the number of species are limited or in the narrative section of the executive summary.

1 = Riffle Run Pool Glide Step, Silt/Clay Sand Gravel Cobble Boulder Bedrock, dip = max pave disp = max subpave
2 = Entrenchment Class - Assign/bin the reach footage into the classes indicated and provide the percentage of the total reach footage in each class in the table This will result from the measured cross - sections as well as visual estimates
3 = Assign/bin the reach footage into the classes indicated and provide the percentage of the total reach footage in each class in the table This will result from the measured cross - sections as well as the longitudinal profile
Footnotes 2,3 - These classes are loosley built around the Rosgen classification and hazard ranking breaks but were adjusted slightly to make for easier assignment to somewhat coarser bins based on visual estimates in the field such that measurement of every segment for ER would not be necessary
The intent here is to provide the reader /consumer of design and monitoring information with a good general sense of the extent of hydrologic containment in the pre - existing and the rehabilitated states as well as comparisons to the reference distributions
ER and BHR have been addressed in prior submissions as a subsample (cross - sections as part of the design survey) however these subsamples have often focused entirely on facilitating design without providing a thorough pre- constrution distribution of these parameters leaving the reader /consumer with a sample that is weighted heavily on the stable sections of
the reach This means that the distributions for these parameters should include data from both the cross - section surveys and the longitudinal profile and in the case of ER visual estimates For example the typical longitudinal profile permits sampling of the BHR at riffles beyond those subject to cross - sections and therefore can be readily integrated and provide
a more complete sample distribution for these parameters thereby providing the distribution /coverage necessary to provide meaningful comparisons

1 = Widths and depths for monitoring resurvey will be based on the baseline bankfull datum regardless of dimensional /depositional development Input the elevation used as the datum, which should be consistent and based on the baseline datum established used
If the performer has inherited the project and cannot acquire the datum for prior years this must be discussed with EEP If this cannot be resolved in time for a given years report submission a footnote in this should be included that states "It is uncertain if the monitoring datum has been
consistent over the monitoring history, which may influence calculated values
Additional data from a prior performer is being acquired to provide confirmation Values will be recalculated in a future submission based on a consistent datum if determined to be necessary "
