1.0 Project Summary
1.1 Project Location and Description
EBX—Neuse I, LLC (EBX), an entity of Resource Environmental Solutions (RES), is pleased to provide
this Bank Parcel Development Monitoring Report for the Uzzle Riparian Buffer Mitigation Bank (Parcel).
This Parcel was built to provide riparian buffer mitigation credits for unavoidable impacts due to
development within the Neuse River Basin, United States Geological Survey (USGS) 8-digit Hydrologic
Unit Code (HUC — 03020201) (Figure 1). This Parcel is in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer
Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 and the RES Poplar Creek Umbrella Mitigation Banking Instrument
(UMBI), made and entered into by EBX-Neuse I, LLC acting as the Bank Sponsor (Sponsor), and the North
Carolina Department of Environmental Quality -Division of Water Resources (DWR). The BPDP has also
been constructed in concurrence with Uzzle Stream Mitigation Site in the Neu -Con Stream and Wetland
Umbrella Mitigation Bank (SAW# 2016-01973). The mitigation plan for the Uzzle Stream Mitigation Bank
was approved by Interagency Review Team (IRT) in February 2019.
The Uzzle Parcel is located in Johnston County approximately six miles southeast of Clayton, North
Carolina. The Parcel is located within Neuse River Basin USGS 14-digit HUC 03020201100040, a
Targeted Local Watershed, and DWR Subbasin Number 03-04-02. To access the Parcel head West on NC
70 from the Town of Wilson Mills and turn left onto Meta Drive. The Parcel is accessible from the end of
Meta Drive. The coordinates of the site are 35.585186 N,-78.393553 W.
The easement is separated by an agricultural crossing, dividing the site into an upper and lower portion.
The upper portion of the project includes reaches LP1, LP2, LP3, LP4, and LP5. The lower portion of the
project includes reaches LP5, LP6, and LP7. The overall drainage area of the Parcel is approximately 2.05
miles squared. Little Poplar Creek (LP1, LP2, LP4, LP5, and LP7) is a perennial stream channel and the
two unnamed tributaries (LP3 and LP6) have been classified as intermittent and confirmed by DWR staff
Furthermore, it was confirmed, by DWR staff, that all riparian areas adjacent to streams associated with
this proposed bank have active cattle grazing. Stream identifications and buffer viability assessments were
performed by the DWR at the January 13, 2017 site visit.
For purposes of the Uzzle Riparian Buffer Bank, the Parcel involved enhancing riparian buffers and other
riparian areas adjacent to mitigated streams onsite. Of the 27.27 acres protected in the conservation
easement, 13.45 acres are enhanced by the removal of cattle from the streams and riparian areas for Neuse
riparian buffer credit only. The BPDP generates credit within the 20-30 foot range, 0-50 foot and 151-200
foot buffer from the proposed top of bank. Majority of the project streams have a riparian buffer of at least
50 feet, excluding crossings and a portion of LP5 and LP6 due to the parallel gas -line easement. Credit
within the 51-150 foot buffer zone was claimed for additional stream credit in the Uzzle Stream Mitigation
Bank. There is no overlap in the buffer bank credit areas and the buffer for stream credit areas. The stream
credit area is solely used for the generation of stream mitigation credits and is not used for the generation
of any other credit. Also, riparian buffer enhancement credits generated on this Bank Parcel are allowed
pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(6) but are not used to generate nutrient offset credits.

Mitigation Site September 2021

1.2 Project Success Criteria
Annual vegetation monitoring is to occur each year for a minimum of five (5) years and is to be conducted
during the fall season with the first year occurring at least 5 months from initial planting. As part of the
stream mitigation plan 3.6 acres were planted and four monitoring plots were installed a minimum of 100
m2 in size. These plots cover at least two percent of the planted mitigation area for the Stream Mitigation
Bank. All four plots are within the riparian buffer that are measuring success of both the stream mitigation
and the buffer riparian area. Data for the plots is to be provided in the Monitoring reports, as a courtesy to
the DWR. The following data is to be recorded for all trees in the plots: species, height, planting date (or
volunteer), and grid location. All stems in plots are to be flagged with flagging tape. Photos are to be taken
from all photo points each monitoring year and provided in the annual reports. Visual inspections and
photos are to be taken to ensure that enhancement areas are being maintained and compliant. The measures
of vegetative success for the parcel are based on the Uzzle Stream Mitigation Plan (Action ID #SAW-2016-
01973). Invasive and noxious species are to be monitored and controlled so that none become dominant or
alter the desired community structure of the site.
A visual assessment of the cattle exclusion areas within the conservation easement is to be performed each
year with all observations provided in the annual monitoring reports, to confirm:
• Fencing is in good condition throughout the site;
• no cattle access within the conservation easement area;
• no encroachment has occurred;
• diffuse flow is being maintained in the conservation easement area; and
• there has not been any cutting, clearing, filling, grading, or similar activities that would
negatively affect the functioning of the buffer.
RES is to monitor the stream mitigation bank for a minimum of seven years, or until IRT approval.
Therefore, all plots will be monitored in accordance with the monitoring protocol in the Uzzle Stream
Mitigation Plan.
1.3 Project Components
This Bank generates approximately 6.17 acres (268,834.036 ft2) of buffer enhancement credits. The
approximately 0.21 acre decrease in creditable area following the as -built was due to the removal of buffer
areas less than 20 feet from the top of bank. The riparian buffer mitigation credits generated service Neuse
buffer impacts within the USGS 8-digit HUC 03020201 of the Neuse River Basin, excluding the Fall Lake
Watershed. The Sponsor is to maintain one credit ledger. The one ledger shall account for buffer
enhancement credits. All mitigation credit assets shall be shown on this credit ledger. The total potential
mitigation credits that the Uzzle Bank generates are summarized below.

1.4 Riparian Enhancement Approach
Preparation of the Parcel involved spraying exotic invasive species, contoured ripping, seeding, and
planting. Livestock were completely removed from Parcel, in perpetuity by way of conservation easement
and installation of fencing. After construction activities, the subsoil was scarified, and any compaction was
deep tilled before the topsoil was placed back over the site. Any topsoil that was removed during
construction was stockpiled and placed over the site during final soil preparation. This process provides
favorable soil conditions for plant growth. Bare root plantings and live stakes were planted according to the
planting plan.
Enhancement occurred in areas of grazing adjacent to the stream in accordance with the Consolidated
Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(6). Where livestock was present, RES installed cattle
exclusion fencing to prohibit access to riparian areas and their associated streams. All fencing was installed
to NRCS specifications.
Riparian enhancement adjacent to streams was approved by the DWR in their Buffer Viability letter dated
January 13, 2017. All enhancement activities began from the tops of the stream banks and extended outward
a maximum of 200 feet perpendicular to the stream channel where possible pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B
.0295 (effective November 1, 2015). It is important to note that areas along all reaches, between the 50-
150-foot buffer width zone, within the project was used to generate additional stream credit for the Uzzle
Stream Mitigation Bank. This area is solely being used for the generation of stream mitigation credits and
is not be used for the generation of any other credit. Buffer crediting is generated from the 0-50 foot and
151-200-foot buffer width zones, with a small area of credit being generated within the 20-30-foot buffer
zone due to project limitation with a gas line easement. Buffer enhancement can only generate buffer
mitigation credit and is not transferrable into nutrient offset credits.
All riparian enhancement activities commenced in concurrence with the stream mitigation activities and
not before. Stream restoration activities based on the design approach included meandering the proposed
channel within the natural valley, backfilling the existing stream channel, and reconnecting a new channel
to its floodplain. Diffuse flow is to be maintained throughout the mitigated riparian areas.

Mitigation Site September 2021

1.5 Construction and As -Built Conditions
Revegetation of the site included treating invasive species and planting native hardwood bare root trees in
areas where stream restoration occurred. Prior to planting, RES prepped the site by spraying and ripping
that section of the easement. Coastal Plain Small Stream Swamp is the target community type and was used
for all areas within the project. The community is defined by Schafale (2012). The planting of bare root
trees occurred in May 2019. Deviations from the initial planting plan were due to bare root availability. A
list of the planted species can be found in Table 2.
Stream construction activities were completed in May 2019. RES submitted a Stream As -Built Report in
July 2019 to USACE and conducted a site visit in July 2019 with no comments. The site was constructed
in accordance with the Approved Mitigation Plan and associated permits. RES acquired 404 (SAW-2016-
01973), 401 (DWR # 2016-0981), and NPDES Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (JC# 19-012-P) Permits.
The conservation easement is marked every 150-200 feet with North Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation
signs attached to either fences or t-posts. A fence was installed around the entire easement as livestock were
present throughout.
1.6 Year 3 Monitoring Performance
The Uzzle Year 3 Monitoring (MY3) activities were completed in September 2021. All MY3 data is present
below and in the appendices. The Site is on track to meet vegetation and stream interim success criteria.
Monitoring of the four permanent vegetation plots was completed during September 2021. Vegetation
tables and transect data are in Appendix B and associated photos are in Appendix C. MY3 monitoring
data indicates that all plots are exceeding the interim success criteria of 320 planted stems per acre. Planted
stem densities ranged from 364 to 607 planted stems per acre with a mean of 526 planted stems per acre
across all plots. A total of 10 species were documented within the plots. Volunteer species were noted in
two plots, with an average of 20 stems per acre. The average tree height observed was 4.6 feet. A few
willow livestakes were added to Vegetation Plot 1 in the wet area in March 2020.
Visual assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is
becoming well established throughout the project. RES performed supplemental planting of about 40
bareroot trees in early 2021. This planting occurred in and around VP3. All of the fencing was in good
condition and there was no evidence of cattle in the easement. Photos of the fence line and crossing can be
found in Appendix C. There was no encroachment observed or similar activities that would negatively
affect the functioning of the buffer. Diffuse flow was also maintained throughout the conservation easement
area. A few small areas of re -sprouted Chinese privet observed in 2019 in the lower section of the easement
were treated in early 2020 and May of 2021 and will continue to be treated as needed throughout the
monitoring period.
2.0 Methods
Vegetation success is being monitored at four permanent monitoring plots. Vegetation plot monitoring
follows the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) and includes
analysis of species composition and density of planted species. Data is processed using the CVS data entry
tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently marked with PVC at the origin and metal
conduit at the other corners. Photos of each plot are to be taken from the origin each monitoring year.
