Project Setting and Background Summary
The Wolf Pond site is located approximately 8 miles south of Monroe in Union County (see
Figure 1) The property is located west of Wolf Pond Road, SR 207, and south of Joe Collins
Road The site is accessed by a farm path that runs adjacent to the main power transmission lines
that bisect the property The project is a restoration of approximately 4,500 linear feet of
unnamed tributaries to Adams Branch in the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin The project is made
up of an upper and lower section of UT2, referred to as Reach 3 and Reach 1, respectively for
monitoring and UT1, referred to as Reach 2 for monitoring
The Wolf Pond site has a drainage area of 0 83 square miles The dominant historic land use was
originally timber production followed by intensive agricultural production of crops including
corn, soybeans, and winter wheat The channel was straightened and channel►zed for agricultural
purposes This led to an incised condition with little to no floodplam access Previously the
stream was straightened and channelized as part of agricultural practices that also left no riparian
buffer Increased runoff intensity caused incision, bank erosion and loss of bed form Water
quality was diminished due to increased turbidity from bank erosion and elevated water
temperatures caused by a lack of vegetative shading Habitat was reduced by the diminished
water quality and continued loss of physical habitat such as bed features, woody debris, and a
well- developed vegetation community Migrating head cuts further incised the channels
Restoration of the stream included establishment of stable cross - sectional geometry, restoration
of channel sinuosity, and increased streambed diversity
Supplemental Planting consisting of two year old bare roots, live stakes and seeding occurred in
2009 to ensure adequate stem height and establishment of herbaceous vegetation Portions of the
Priority II section of Reach 2 were regarded, seeded, replanted with 3 gallon containerized trees
and mulched in April 2011 to correct erosional areas 3 gallon containerized trees were planted
in to correct areas of encroachment along the field edges in March 2012 and then in March 2013
in the areas near the beaver dams to mitigate for beaver cuttings
The restoration has been successful in meeting the design goals All hydrologic and water
quality goals have been achieved as the channel and cross sections have remained stable and the
site has experienced eleven bank full events Riparian habitat has been greatly improved
Stream structures, cross sections and pattern have maintained stability, although several areas
have been watched for several years to see if they develop into issues and appear to not be doing
so
Goals and Objectives
• Produce a minimum of 4,500 stream mitigation units (SMU) to NCEEP (contracted amount)
Goals related to hydrology include•
• Re- establishing floodplam connect by raising bed elevations
• Increase flood storage by re- establishing floodplai
Goals related to water quality include:
• Reducing turbidity by reducing sediment inputs
• Reducing water temperatures by providing shading
• Increasing / stabilizing oxygen levels by reducing BOD /COD and increasing reoxygenatmg
turbulence
Goals related to habitat include.
• Improved bed habitat by increasing riffle — pool diversity, reducing sediment deposition, and
improving low flow water depths
• Improve bank habitat by increasing stability and woody biomass
• Improve floodplain habitat by establishing microtopography and hydrology, removing invasive
vegetation, and increasing habitat diversity
• Improve food web dynamics by adding biomass (such as detritus, wood debris and leaf matter)
and re- establishing floodplam connection
Page 2 of 24
The restoration achieves these goals through the following objectives:
• Stabilizing channel bed and banks through modifying dimension, pattern, and profile using
natural channel design
• Installing in- stream structures such as rock vanes
• Installing in -bank structures such as root wads
• Raising stream bed elevations
• Restoring soils in riparian buffer
• Removing invasive vegetation
• Planting native vegetation in riparian buffer
Success Criteria
Vegetation
Survival of at least 320 planted stems per acre after the year three monitoring period
Survival of at least 260 planted stems per acre after the year five monitoring period
As -Built
A photo log will be maintained over the monitoring period and must demonstrate maturation of
Stream
planted vegetation
Stream
Two bankfull flow events must be documented within the five-year monitoring period
There should be little change in as -built cross sections Cross sections shall be classified using the
Ratio
Mitigation
Rosgen stream classification method and all monitored cross - sections should fall within the
quantitative parameters defined for C type channels
The longitudinal profiles should show that the bedform features are remaining stable, e g they are
Units
not aggrad rig or degrading Bedfonms observed should be consistent with those observed in C
type channels
Photographs will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradanon or degradation, bank

EEP Recommendation and Conclusion
• The restored stream channel has remained stable as evident by the fact that all monitored cross
sections and longitudinal profiles show no significant adjustment in stream dimension over the
entire monitoring period The stream channel is also providing the intended habitat, water quality,
hydrologic and riparian functions and has met all success criteria including eleven bankfull events
While cattails are present in portions of the site the canopy will close soon shading the cattails out
The overall mitigation benefits of flood storage, temperature reduction and removing sediment
will continue
• Beaver have been active on the site since July 2012 and a beaver management program has been
initiated Beaver are regularly trapped from the site and the dams removed up to the top of bank
• Vegetation monitoring has documented the average number of surviving planted stems per acre on
the site to be 420, with a stem density range of 323 to 526 stems per acre All areas have achieved
the success criteria of 260 trees per acre at monitoring year 5
• The project has achieved success based on stated success criteria and is recommended for
regulatory closure All items shown as stream areas of observation with the exception of Beaver
Management do not warrant any action and have healed on their own or were not of significant
concern and less than 1% coverage of the site The portions of the site that were impacted by
beaver were replanted with 3 gallon containerized material in March of 2013 in an effort to jump
start the return of the riparian vegetation which will reestablish with the seed bank and stump
sprout on its own
EEP recommends project closure at 4513 SMUs
Contineencies
• Beaver management including inspection and trapping as required will be ongoing until closeout
of the Site
