1. Project Summary
L I Project Location and Description
EBX—Neuse I, LLC, an entity of Resource Environmental Solutions (RES), is pleased to provide this
Monitoring Report for the Poplar Creek Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation Bank (Parcel). This
Parcel is designed to provide riparian buffer credits for unavoidable impacts due to development within the
Neuse River Basin, United States Geological Survey (`USGS') 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC —
03020201). In addition, it also provides nutrient offset credits in the 03020201 HUC, excluding the Falls
Lake Watershed, for existing and proposed development requiring such mitigation. This Parcel is in
accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295, 15A NCAC 0213.0240
and the RES Poplar Creek Umbrella Mitigation Banking Instrument for Riparian Buffer Mitigation and
Nutrient Offset Credits (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). Supporting figures can be found in Appendix A. The Parcel has also been designed in concurrence
with the Poplar Creek Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site in the Neu -Con Stream and Wetland Umbrella
Mitigation Bank (SAW# 2016-01985). The mitigation plan for the Poplar Creek Stream and Wetland
Mitigation Bank has been approved by the Interagency Review Team (IRT).
The Parcel is located in Johnston County approximately three miles north of Smithfield, NC (Figure 1).
The Parcel is located within Neuse River Basin USGS 14-digit HUC 03020201100050 and North Carolina
Division of Water Resources (DWR) Subbasin Number 03-04-02. To access the Parcel head East on NC
70 from the Town of Wilson Mills and turn right onto Wilson Mills Road and head south for approximately
a quarter of a mile, then turn left onto Lee Youngblood Loop. The coordinates of the site are 35.5521 - N, -
78.3568- W.
When combining the Poplar Creek Stream & Wetland Mitigation Bank with the Poplar Creek Buffer
Mitigation and Nutrient Offset Bank, the conservation easement totals 23.59 acres and includes three
unnamed tributaries that drain to Poplar Creek. The drainage area of the Parcel is 0.3 mi2. The Parcel is
located in an area dominated by agricultural fields, cattle pastures and wooded areas. The majority of the
Parcel was actively grazed pasture and disturbed riparian forest. Additional land use practices included the
maintenance and removal of riparian vegetation, maintained vegetation, grazed pasture, and agricultural
ponds. The Parcel also contained one agricultural pond that had been in place for at least 20 years.
The Poplar Creek Mitigation Site was built to provide stream restoration, enhancement, and preservation
on approximately 4,273 linear feet. Riparian restoration, enhancement, and preservation of the Neuse
riparian buffer (as defined in 15A NCAC 02B .0233) and other riparian areas onsite result in immediate
water quality benefits within the vicinity of the Parcel and include the removal of livestock access to Parcel
streams and reduction in nutrient loads from agricultural land -uses. The riparian restoration activities within
the Parcel also result in improved water quality within the downstream watershed.
1.2 Project Success Criteria
Annual vegetation monitoring will occur each year for a minimum of five (5) years and will be conducted
during the fall season with the first year occurring at least 5 months from initial planting. Four vegetation
monitoring plots were installed a minimum of 100 m2 in size and cover at least two percent of the riparian
restoration area. Plots were randomly placed throughout the planted Neuse buffer zones and nutrient offset
mitigation area and are representative of the crediting areas. The following data will be recorded for all
trees in the plots: species, height, planting date (or volunteer), and grid location. Photos are to be taken from
all photo points each monitoring year and provided in the annual reports. The measures of vegetative
Poplar Creek 1 Year 2 Monitoring Report
Mitigation Site October 2021

success for the Parcel will be the survival of at least 4 native hardwood tree species, where no one species
is greater than 50 percent of the established stems, established at a density of at least 260 planted trees per
acre at the end of Year 5. Native volunteer species may be included to meet the performance standards.
Invasive and noxious species will be monitored and treated so that none become dominant or alter the
desired community structure of the site.
RES must monitor the stream mitigation bank for a minimum of seven years, or until IRT approval.
Therefore, plots placed within riparian restoration areas that are outside of the mitigation area for buffer
and nutrient offset credits will be monitored in accordance with the monitoring protocol in the Poplar Creek
Stream Mitigation Plan.
1.3 Project Components
This Bank generates approximately 93,766 ft2 of riparian buffer restoration credits (84,875 ft2 from
backfilling and planting the pond), 76,454.5 ft2 of riparian buffer enhancement credits via cattle exclusion,
8,220.5 ft2 of riparian buffer preservation credits, and 1,454.73 lbs of nutrient offset credits. These numbers
reflect some small changes in total credit amounts due to the use of the actual as -built survey top of bank
and tree line. The total restoration credit increased by 4,526 ft2, total enhancement credit decreased by 1,158
ft2, total preservation credit increased by 72 ft2, and total nutrient offset credit increased by 32 lbs.
The riparian buffer mitigation credits generated, service Neuse buffer impacts within the USGS 8-digit
HUC 03020201 of the Neuse River Basin excluding the Falls Lake Watershed. The Nitrogen nutrient
offsets generated services nutrient load reduction requirements where payments are authorized in 15A
NCAC 02B .0240 within the USGS 8-digit HUC 03020201, excluding the Falls Lake Watershed. The
Sponsor maintains 3 credit ledgers. One ledger accounts for buffer restoration credits, one ledger accounts
for buffer preservation and enhancement credits, and one accounts for nitrogen nutrient offset credits. All
mitigation credit assets shall be shown on these credit ledgers. The total potential riparian buffer and
nutrient offset mitigation credits that the Poplar Creek Bank generates are summarized below.

*According to 15A NCAC 02B. 0295 (o) (4) and (5), "the area ofpreservation credit within a buffer mitigation site shall
comprise of no more than 25% of the total area of buffer mitigation ".
All riparian restoration in the table above is generated on land determined by DWR as being agricultural.
Therefore, the 93,766 ft2 of Neuse riparian buffer restoration credits shown in the table above, can be used
for either Neuse riparian buffer credits or Nitrogen nutrient offset credits, but not both. Neither riparian
buffer preservation nor enhancement credits can be converted into nutrient offset credits. The Sponsor
must submit a written request and receive written approval from DWR prior to any credit conversions and
transfers to the buffer and nutrient offset credit ledgers. With each conversion and transfer request
submitted to the DWR, the Sponsor will provide all updated credit ledgers showing all transactions that
have occurred up to the date of the request.
1.4 Riparian Mitigation Approach
Riparian Restoration Activities
Buffer restoration occurred along YB2-A and a small area on YB2-B, including the former agricultural
pond, in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (n) (Figure 2).
This pond was removed, and stream restoration was performed in the pond bottom. Stream Restoration
addressed impairments, which included the former pond, floodplain dislocation, bank erosion, nutrient
input, livestock access, and buffer degradation. The stream design approach included breaching the existing
dam and meandering the channel within the natural valley. Riparian restoration areas were planted from
top of bank back at least 50 feet from the stream with bare root tree seedlings on an 8 by 8-foot spacing to
achieve an initial density of 680 trees per acre. Furthermore, livestock exclusion fence was installed, to
remove access to riparian areas and their associated streams. All fencing was installed to NRCS
specifications. Some areas adjacent to the forested areas may require maintenance due to the rapid
regeneration of some species, such as red maple (Acer rubrum) and sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua).
Furthermore, the lower portion of YB2-A, that was not within the pond footprint, used for nutrient offset
credit, and is viable for buffer restoration crediting in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0240. This area
included the same activities as described above.
Riparian Enhancement Activities
Buffer enhancement along YB2-B also occurs in areas of grazing adjacent to the stream in accordance with
the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(6) (Figure 2). Where livestock were
present, livestock exclusion fence was installed, to remove access to riparian areas and their associated
streams. All fencing was installed to NRCS specifications. Some areas adjacent to the forested areas may
require maintenance due to the rapid regeneration of some species, such as red maple and sweetgum.
Minimal maintenance is anticipated due to the past land use history. Buffer enhancement can only generate
buffer mitigation credit and is not transferrable into nutrient offset credits.
Riparian Preservation Activities
Buffer preservation occurred along YB 1-C and YB3 in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation
Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(5) (Figure 2). Preservation activities consisted of permanently protecting
the buffer from cutting, clearing, filling, grading, and similar activities that would affect the functioning of
the buffer. No more than 25 percent of the total area of buffer mitigation was used for preservation credit
pursuant to 15A NCAC 0295 (o)(5) and 15A NCAC 0295 (o)(4) and the rest of the area is protected in the
Poplar Creek 3 Year 2 Monitoring Report
Mitigation Site October 2021

conservation easement and not applied for credit. Furthermore, Buffer preservation can only generate buffer
mitigation credit and is not transferrable into nutrient offset credits.
1.5 Construction and As Built Conditions
Revegetation of the site included treating invasive species and planting native hardwood bare root trees.
Prior to planting, RES prepped the site by spraying and ripping 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 and December 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 originally completed in May 2019. Based on a site visit conducted by
NCDWR on July 9', construction was determined to be incomplete until the IRT recommended updates
were made. Reaches YB 1-C and Y132-13 underwent significant stream repairs in the fall of 2019. Trees in
these two areas were replanted in December 2019. After all site work was complete, it was determined that
the original four vegetation plots, Vegetation Plot 1, 2, 3, and 4, for the Poplar Creek Riparian Buffer and
Nutrient Offset sections of the project were not impacted during site work and therefore were not
remeasured in December. RES acquired 404 (SAW-2016-01985), 401 (DWR # 16-0979), and NPDES
Erosion and Sediment Control Plan QC# 19-003-P) Permits. There were no easement changes between
BPDP approval and construction. The conservation easement is marked every 150-200 feet with North
Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation signs attached to either fences or t-posts. Fences were installed in
areas where livestock is present, and t-posts are used as physical barriers where livestock is not present.
1.6 Year 2 Monitoring Performance
The Poplar Creek Year 2 Monitoring (MY2) activities were completed in September 2021. All MY2 data
is present below and in the appendices. The Site is on track to meeting vegetation and stream interim
success criteria.
Monitoring of the four permanent vegetation plots was completed in September 2021. Vegetation tables
are located in Appendix B and associated photos are in Appendix C. Monitoring Year 2 (MY2) monitoring
data indicates that three out of four plots are exceeding the interim success criteria of 320 planted stems per
acre. Vegetation Plot 4 (VP4) did not meet the interim success criteria and only documented 243 planted
stems per acre. Planted stem densities ranged from 243 to 971 planted stems per acre with a mean of 688
planted stems per acre across all plots. A total of 10 species were documented within the plots. Volunteer
species were recorded in one plot. The average tree height observed was 7.6 feet.
Visual assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is
becoming well established throughout the project. Areas with low stem densities and vegetation plots that
failed to meet success in MY2 will be replanted in the upcoming dormant season. All the fencing was in
good condition and there was no evidence of cattle in the easement. 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. Small areas of re -sprouted Chinese privet were
treated in 2020 and will continue to be addressed as needed throughout the monitoring period. There were
several stream structure repairs performed in 2021, however, the impact to the buffer was minimal and the
affected areas were properly replanted. In addition to the DWR permanent vegetation plots, all six stream
site vegetation plots met interim success in MY2. This includes the areas where stream structure repairs
were performed in 2021.

2. Methods
Vegetation success is being monitored at four permanent vegetation 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. In
MY1, RES also measured four random vegetation plots in the area of Y132-A per DWR request. The random
vegetation plots were measured in 25 by 4 in (100 m2) transects.
